Answer:

An echo is formed as a result of reflection of the original sound which returns to the listener. You might have experienced Echo in an EMPTY ROOM but no echo is produced after the room is occupied. To avoid echo from being produced the echo has to be absorbed.

Two identical parallel plate capacitors A and B connected to a battery of V volts w/ the switch S closed. The switch is now open

Basile [38]

The electrostatic energy stored in a capacitor with capacitance $C_0$ , with a voltage difference V applied to it, and without dielectric, is given by
$U_0 = \frac{1}{2} C_0 V^2$
Now let's assume we fill the space between the two plates of the capacitor with a dielectric with constant k. The new capacitance of the capacitor is
$C_k = k C_0$
So, the energy stored now is
$U_k = \frac{1}{2}C_k V^2= \frac{1}{2}kC_0 V^2$

Therefore, the ratio between the energies stored in the capacitor before and after the introduction of the dielectric is
$\frac{U_k}{U_0}= \frac{ \frac{1}{2}kC_0 V^2 }{ \frac{1}{2} C_0 V^2}= k$

A 8.00g sample of substance (substance, molar mass = 152.0 g/mol) was combusted in a bomb calorimeter with a heat capacity of 6.

aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

ΔH°comb=-5899.5 kJ/mol

Explanation:

First, consider the energy balance:

$m_{c} *Cp*(T_{2}-T_{1})=-n_{s} *H_{c}$ Where $m_{c}$ is the calorimeter mass and $n_{s}$ is the number of moles of the samples; $H_{c}$ is the combustion enthalpy. The energy balance says that the energy that the reaction release is employed in rise the temperature of the calorimeter, which is designed to be adiabatic, so it is suppose that the total energy is employed rising the calorimeter temperature.

The product $m_{c} *Cp$ is the heat capacity, so the balance equation is:

$6.21\frac{kJ}{K}*(75-25)=-8.00g*\frac{mol}{152.0g}*H_{c}$

So, the enthalpy of combustion can be calculated:

$H_{c}=-5899.5\frac{kJ}{mol}$

I will be happy to solve any doubt you have.

What sound signal alerts others that a boat is backing up?

inn [45]

"Three short blasts" sound signal alerts others when a boat is backing up based on the boating safety rule. The short blast is a sound which has one second period, thus three short blasts mean three of this kind of sound. The sound signal is used for alerting anything surrounding the boat to avoid a collision.

Problem page a cyclist traveled 20 kilometers per hour faster than an in-line skater. in the time it took the cyclist to travel

RideAnS [48]

<span>Answer: skater x km/h cyclist 20 faster x + 20 km/h skater 30 km cyclist 80 km skater time = cyclist time t=d/r 30 / x = 80 /( x + 20 cross multiply 30 ( x + 20 ) = 80 x 30 x + 600 = 80 x 30 x - 80 x = -600 -50 x = -600 / -50 x = 12 km/h 12 km/h skater</span>
