The force applied to the cannonball and cannon is equal. The explosion inside the cannon will generate a pressure which will turn into a force on both cannonball and cannon. The cannon being heavier and fixed to the ground will move a bit, but the cannonball will be thrown away, fired.

Say you want to make a sling by swinging a mass M of 1.9 kg in a horizontal circle of radius 0.042 m, using a string of length 0
padilas [110]

Answer: T= 715 N

Explanation:

The only external force (neglecting gravity) acting on the swinging mass, is the centripetal force, which. in this case, is represented by the tension in the string, so we can say:

T = mv² / r

At the moment that the mass be released, it wil continue moving in a straight line at the same tangential speed that it had just an instant before, which is the same speed included in the centripetal force expression.

So the kinetic energy will be the following:

K = 1/2 m v² = 15. 0 J

Solving for v², and replacing in the expression for T:

T = 1.9 Kg (3.97)² m²/s² / 0.042 m = 715 N

If 35 mg of Oxygen is mixed with 1000 g of water at 25 degrees Celsius, a solution forms.
Serjik [45]

Answer:

The solute is oxygen

The solvent is water

Explanation:

A solvent is any chemical substance that dissolves other chemical substances, while a solute refers to any chemical substance that dissolves in other chemical substances. The best way to know when a chemical substance dissolves in another chemical substance is when a solid or gas dissolves in water. The solid or the gas can now be referred to as the solute and it will be shown to be in the the aqueous state, while the solvent is usually shown to be in the liquid state in any chemical equation.

Let us use the particular example of the dissolution of oxygen gas in water as shown below;

O2(g) + H2O(l)⇄O2(aq) + H2O(l)

The aqueous oxygen is the solute while the liquid water is the solvent.

Also, the substance having a smaller mass must be the solute and the substance having the larger mass must be the solvent.
