How are water bottles recycled?

They are crushed down and melted, the full bottle doesn't get recycled because it is made of toxins so some of each bottle has to be thrown away into some landfill to decompose. But this is bad because plastic toxins take years to decompose and it is adding up

One mole of iron (6 x 10^23 atoms) has a mass of 56 grams, and its density is 7.87 grams per cubic centimeter, so the center-to-

choli [55]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that:

length l = 2.3 m

a = 0.12 cm = $0.12 \times 10^{-2} \ m$

$x = 1.17 \ cm = 1.17 \times 10^{-2}\ m$

m = 149 kg

$\delta = 7.87 \ g/cm^3$

$da = 2.28 \times 10^{-10}\ m$

$F_{net} = F-mg\\ \\0 = F - mg \\ \\ F = mg \\ \\ k_sx = mg \\ \\$

∴

$k_s = \dfrac{149(9.8)}{1.17 \times 10^{-2}} \\ \\ k_s = 124803.42 \ N /m$

$N_{chain} = \dfrac{A_{wire}}{A_{atom}} = \dfrac{A_w}{da^2}$

$N_{chain} = \dfrac{(a)^2}{(da)^2} = (\dfrac{a}{da})^2$

$N_{chain} = (\dfrac{0.12 \times 10^{-2} }{2.28 \times 10^{-10}})^2$

$N_{chain} = 2.77 \times 10^{13}$

$N_{bond} = \dfrac{L}{da} \\ \\ = \dfrac{2.3}{2.28 \times 10^{-10}} \\ \\ N_{bond} = 1.009 \times 10^{10}$

$\text{Finally; the stiffness of a single interatomic spring is:}$

$k_{si} =\dfrac{N_{bond}}{N_{chain}}\times k_s$

$k_{si} =\dfrac{(1.009 \times 10^{10})}{2.77*10^{13}}}\times (124803.42)$

$\mathbf{k_{si} =45.46 \ N/m}$

A paper airplane with mass 0.1 kg is flying 1.5 m above the ground with a speed of 2 m/s. What is the total mechanical energy of

Wewaii [24]

Total mechanical energy = kinetic energy + potential energy
E = KE + PE
E = ½mv² + mgh
E = ½(0.1 kg)(2 m/s)² + (0.1 kg)(9.8 m/s²)(1.5 m)
E = 0.2 J + 1.47 J
E = 1.67 J
