Generally , people water their plants with 100% H2o--- no solutes added. What sort of environment does this create around the ro

ots of the plant? (Hypotonic, hypertonic or isotonic ) EXPLAIN!!

This is difficult to explain, but it's hypotonic. HypERtonic is where there is where the cells shrivel up because there is more solute (salt is an example of a solute) on the outside, so the water rushes outward towards it and shrivels the cell. Plants like lots of water so they like to be hypotonic, and since you're adding pure H2O, there is no solute being added, so the solute is in the cell, causing the water to rush in. Isotonic is equal throughout the solution.

What mass of ice (in g) can be melted if 27.2 kJ of thermal energy are added at the freezing point? Use molar mass = 18.02 g/mol

san4es73 [151]

Answer : The mass of ice melted can be, 3.98 grams.

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the moles of ice.

$Q=\frac{\Delta H}{n}$

where,

Q = energy absorbed = 27.2 kJ

$\Delta H$ = enthalpy of fusion of ice = 6.01 kJ/mol

n = moles = ?

Now put all the given values in the above expression, we get:

$27.2kJ=\frac{6.01kJ/mol}{n}$

$n=0.221mol$

Now we have to calculate the mass of ice.

$\text{Mass of ice}=\text{Moles of ice}\times \text{Molar mass of ice}$

Molar mass of ice = 18.02 g/mol

$\text{Mass of ice}=0.221mol\times 18.02g/mol=3.98g$

Thus, the mass of ice melted can be, 3.98 grams.

A plane flies 446 km east from city A to city B in 43.0 min and then 939 km south from city B to city C in 1.10 h. For the total

NeTakaya

Answer:

(a) Magnitude is 1039 km

(b) Direction of the displacement is $64.59^{\circ}$ South of East

(c) Average velocity magnitude is 570.88 km

(d) The direction of average velocity is $64.59^{\circ}$ South of East

(e) Average speed is 759.34 km/h

Solution:

Distance moved from A to B in East direction, $\vec{AB} = 446 km$

Distance moved from B to C in South direction, $\vec{BC} = - 939 km$

Time taken to move from A to B, t = 43.0 min = 0.72 h

Time taken to move from B to C, t' = 1.10 h

Now,

(a) The magnitude of displacement of the plane is provided by AC as shown in fig 1 and can be given as:

$AC = \sqrt{(AB)^{2} + (BC)^{2}}$

$AC = \sqrt{(446)^{2} + (- 939)^{2}}$ = 1039 km

(b) Direction of the displacement is given by:

$tan\theta = \frac{\vec{BC}}{\vec{AB}}$

$\theta = tan^{- 1}(\frac{- 939}{\vec{446}}) = - 64.59^{\circ}$

$64.59^{\circ}$ South of East

(c) Magnitude of the average speed is given by:

$v_{avg} = \frac{AC}{t + t'}$

$v_{avg} = \frac{1039}{1.82} = 570.88 km/h$

(d) The direction of the average velocity is the same as that of the displacement, i.e., $64.59^{\circ}$ South of East.

(e) The average speed of the [plane is given by:

$v'_{avg} = \frac{Total\ Distance\ Traveled}{Total\ Time}$

$v'_{avg} = \frac{446 + 939}{1.10 + 0.72} = 759.34 km/h$

The force that attracts earth to an object is equal to and opposite the force that earth exerts on the object. Explain why earth

alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

Because of heavy mass

Explanation:

When force acts on a body it tends to accelerate the body. The acceleration produced in the body depends on two things:

1). Magnitude of force

2). Mass of the body

F= ma

⇒ a = F/m

As the force exerted on earth and another object are the equal in magnitude but opposite in direction. This forces will accelerate the object toward the earth but can't accelerate the earth as earth has very high mass.

a = F/m

This force tends to accelerate the earth but but due to earth's inertia the earth does not accelerate.

A comet is in an elliptical orbit around the Sun. Its closest approach to the Sun is a distance of 4.7 1010 m (inside the orbit

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

58515.9 m/s

Explanation:

We are given that

$d_1=4.7\times 10^{10} m$

$v_i=9.5\times 10^4 m/s$

$d_2=6\times 10^{12} m$

We have to find the speed (vf).

Work done by surrounding particles=W=0 Therefore, initial energy is equal to final energy.

$K_i+U_i=K_f+U_f$

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2_i-\frac{GmM}{d_1}=\frac{1}{2}mv^2_f-\frac{GmM}{d_2}$

$\frac{1}{2}v^2_i-\frac{GM}{d_1}+\frac{GM}{d_2}=\frac{1}{2}v^2_f$

$v^2_f=2(\frac{1}{2}v^2_i-\frac{GM}{d_1}+\frac{GM}{d_2})$

$v_f=\sqrt{2(\frac{1}{2}v^2_i-\frac{GM}{d_1}+\frac{GM}{d_2})}$

Using the formula

$v_f=\sqrt{v^2_i+2GM(\frac{1}{d_2}-\frac{1}{d_1})}$

$v_f=\sqrt{(9.5\times 10^4)^2+2\times 6.7\times 10^{-11}\times 1.98\times 10^{30}(\frac{1}{6\times 10^{12}}-\frac{1}{4.7\times 10^{10})}$

Where mass of sun= $M=1.98\times 10^{30} kg$

$G=6.7\times 10^{-11}$

$v_f=58515.9 m/s$
