Answer : The cell potential for this cell 0.434 V

Solution :

The balanced cell reaction will be,  

Cu(s)+2Ag^{+}(aq)\rightarrow Cu^{2+}(aq)+2Ag(s)

Here copper (Cu) undergoes oxidation by loss of electrons, thus act as anode. silver (Ag) undergoes reduction by gain of electrons and thus act as cathode.

First we have to calculate the standard electrode potential of the cell.

E^o_{[Cu^{2+}/Cu]}=0.34V

E^o_{[Ag^{+}/Ag]}=0.80V

E^o=E^o_{[Ag^{+}/Ag]}-E^o_{[Cu^{2+}/Cu]}

E^o=0.80V-(0.34V)=0.46V

Now we have to calculate the concentration of cell potential for this cell.

Using Nernest equation :

E_{cell}=E^o_{cell}-\frac{0.0592}{n}\log \frac{[Cu^{2+}][Ag]^2}{[Cu][Ag^+]^2}

where,

n = number of electrons in oxidation-reduction reaction = 2

E_{cell} = ?

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

E_{cell}=0.46-\frac{0.0592}{2}\log \frac{(1.14)\times (1)^2}{(1)\times (0.15)}

E_{cell}=0.434V

Therefore, the cell potential for this cell 0.434 V

How long must a tow truck apply a force of 600 N to increase the speed of a 1,500 kg car at rest to 2 m/s?
slega [8]

The time the truck must apply the given force to increase its speed to given value is 5 s.

The given parameters;

  • <em>applied force, F = 600 N</em>
  • <em>mass of the truck, m = 1,500 kg</em>
  • <em>speed of the truck, v = 2 m/s</em>

The force applied to the truck is determined by Newton's second law of motion; <em>which states that the force applied to an object is directly proportional to the product of mass and acceleration of the object.</em>

F = ma

F = \frac{mv}{t} \\\\t = \frac{mv}{F} \\\\t = \frac{1500 \times 2}{600} \\\\t = 5 \ s

Thus, the time the truck must apply the given force to increase its speed to given value is 5 s.
