Suppose that the weight (in pounds) of an airplane is a linear function of the amount of fuel (in gallons) in its tank. When car

rying 18 gallons of fuel, the airplane weighs 1999 pounds. When carrying 46 gallons of fuel, it weighs 2153 pounds. How much does the airplane weigh if it is carrying 58 gallons of fuel?

Answer:

W=2219pounds

Explanation:

If the weight  is a linear function of the amount of fuel, the following correlation is fulfilled :

\frac{2153pounds-1999pounds}{46gallons-18gallons} = \frac{W-1999pounds}{58gallons-18galons}

we solve the equation:

W=2219pounds

At the equator, the radius of the Earth is approximately 6370 km. A plane flies at a very low altitude at a constant speed of v
Anna007 [38]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the kinematic equations of linear motion. For this purpose we will define the speed as the distance traveled in a given period of time. Here the distance is equivalent to the orbit traveled around the earth, that is, a circle. Approaching the height of the aircraft with the radius of the earth, we will have the following data,

R= 6370*10^3 m

v = 219m/s

a = 17m/s^2

The circumference of the earth would be

\phi = 2\pi R

Velocity is defined as,

v = \frac{x}{t}

t = \frac{x}{v}

Herex = \phi, then

t = \frac{\phi}{v} = \frac{2\pi (6370*10^3)}{219}

t = 1.82*10^5s

Therefore will take 1.82*10^5 s or 506 hours, 19 minutes, 17 seconds

Carlos is making phosphorous trichloride using the equation below. He adds 15 g of phosphorus.
Degger [83]
Given:

The balanced chemical reaction of the synthesis of phosphorus trichloride:

2P + 3Cl2 ===> 2PCl3

Initial amount of phosphorus = 15 grams

The amount of product produced from 15 grams of phosphorus:

15 grams / 31 g/mol * (2/2) = 66.46 grams PCl3 

The amount of chlorine is 44.31 grams, nearest to 45 grams.

What molecular geometry would be expected for f2 and hf?
Kaylis [27]
The molecular geometry of both F2 and HF is linear.

There are only two atoms which are covalently bonded and thus, the bonding scheme with the atoms looks like this;

F --- F

H---F

So, both are linear.
