If the mass of 293nv is 293.15 amu and that of 295nv is 295.30 amu , what is the atomic weight of nv?

1 answer:

5 0

Honestly, I am quite confused with what Nv stands for because there is no element with that symbol. However, I still get the concept of finding the average molecular mass of an element. Let's just assume that nv stands for a specific type of element and it has two isotopes: nv-293 and nv-295. Isotopes have the same number of protons but differ in mass number (protons+neutrons).

To find the average atomic weight, just multiply the individual weights with the respective composition of the isotope. Since there are only two isotopes, they constitute 50% each. So, the average atomic weight is

(50%)(293.15 amu) + (50%)(<span>295.30 amu) = 294.225 amu

Hence, the atomic weight of nv is 294.225 atomic mass units.</span>

A horizontal uniform meter stick supported at the 50-cm mark has a mass of 0.50 kg hanging from it at the 20-cm mark and a 0.30

ElenaW [278]

Answer:

70 cm

Explanation:

0.5 kg at 20 cm

0.3 kg at 60 cm

x = Distance of the third 0.6 kg mass

Meter stick hanging at 50 cm

Torque about the support point is given by (torque is conserved)

$0.5(50-20)=0.3(60-50)+0.6x\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{0.5(50-20)-0.3(60-50)}{0.6}\\\Rightarrow x=20\ cm$

The position of the third mass of 0.6 kg is at 20+50 = 70 cm

How did Archimedes measure the mass of the block of gold?

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Archimedes found a piece of gold and a piece of silver with exactly the same mass. He dropped the gold into a bowl filled to the brim with water and measured the volume of water that spilled out. Then he did the same thing with the piece of solver. Although both metals had the same mass, the silver gad a larger volume; therefore, it displaced more water than the gold did. That's because the silver was less dense than gold. Afterwards he applied the same method to the crown for the king he served who had got a new crown from a jeweler who gave it to him. Archimedes found a piece of pure gold that had the same mass as the crown. He placed the pure gold chuck and the crown in water, one at a time. The crown displaced more water the piece of gold. Therefore, its density was less than pure gold.

Flura [38]

The given data is incomplete. The complete question is as follows.

At an accident scene on a level road, investigators measure a car's skid mark to be 84 m long. It was a rainy day and the coefficient of friction was estimated to be 0.36. Use these data to determine the speed of the car when the driver slammed on (and locked) the brakes. (why does the car's mass not matter?)

Explanation:

Let us assume that v is the final velocity and u is the initial velocity of the car. Let s be the skid marks and $\mu$ be the friction coefficient and m be the mass of car.
