A space vehicle accelerates uniformly from 85 m/s at t = 0 to 164 m/s at t = 10.0 s .How far did it move between t = 2.0 s and t

creativ13 [48]

First, we have a change in the velocity from 85 to 164 m/s in 10 sec.

Then, we calculate the acceleration as:

$a=\frac{v_{f}-v_{i} }{t} =\frac{164-85}{10}=7.9 m/s^2$

Hence we need to calculate the velocity of the space vehicle at t = 2 sec using the first equation of motion:

$v_{f}=v_{i}+at=85+7.9*2=100.8m/s$

Then, using the second equation of motion to calculate the distance:

$d=v_{i} t+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

$d=100.8*2+\frac{1}{2}*7.9*(2)^2=217.4m$

The electric field strength in the space between two closely spaced parallel disks is 1.0 10^5 N/C. This field is the result of

alex41 [277]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the capacitance in the disks, the difference of the potential and the load in the disc.

The capacitance can be expressed in terms of the Area, the permeability constant and the diameter:

$C = \frac{\epsilon_0 A}{d}$

Where,

$\epsilon_0$ = Permeability constant

A = Cross-sectional Area

d = Diameter

Potential difference between the two disks,

V = Ed

Where,

E = Electric field

d = diameter

Q = Charge on the disk equal to $\rightarrow Q=ne=(3.9*10^9)(1.6*10^{-19})= 6.24*10^{-10}C$

Through the value found and the expression given for capacitance and potential, we can define the electric charge as

$Q = CV$

$Q = \frac{\epsilon A}{d}(Ed)$

$Q = \epsilon_0 AE$

$Q = \epsilon_0 \pi(\frac{d}{2})^2E$

$Q = \frac{\epsilon \pi d^2E}{4}$

Re-arranging the equation to find the diameter of the disks, the equation will be:

$d = \sqrt{\frac{4D}{\epsilon_0 \pi E}}$

Replacing,

$d = \sqrt{\frac{4(6.24*10^{-10})}{(8.85*10^{-12})\pi(1*10^{5})}}$

$d = 0.0299m$

Therefore the diameter of the disks is 0.03m

According to the law of conservation of matter, what number must be the same on each side of a chemical equation?

olga2289 [7]

Answer:

4. The number of atoms of each element

Explanation:

Why is 1 wrong?

The number of substances (i.e. number of mols of substances) do not have to be the same. For instance, 2 mol of water reacts with 1 mol of oxygen to form 2 mol of water. Obviously the numer of substances is not conserved. Thus, it isn't a requirement.

Why is 2 wrong?

The number of chemical symbols do not mean anything. They do not tell us anything about the quantity of matter, they only tell us about the elements that are involved in the reaction.

Why is 3 wrong?

Once again, the number of chemical formulas are meaningless.

Why is 4 correct?

The number of atoms are always conserved as atoms cannot be broken or created.

Possible confusion...

The number of atoms are always conserved but the number of molecules may not always be conserved.

Why? As 2 atoms may be a molecule on the reactant side and 4 atoms may become a molecule on the product size, causing the number of molecules to reduce by half, while the number of atoms remain constant.

Hope that makes sense!
