Answer:

92.397amu

Explanation: The exact amu of the mystery element is obtained by multiplying the relative abundance of each individual isotope by its respective amu and then summing the results.

The sum of the total relative abundance for all the isotopes should be 100%.

However, the relative abundance of the isotope with 95.502amu is not given; therefore to obtain it we subtract the sum of the known relative abundances from 100% as follows:

Relative abundance of isotope with 95.502amu = 100-(23.63+30.53) = 42.84%

A block (mass = 61.2 kg) is hanging from a massless cord that is wrapped around a pulley (moment of inertia = 1/2MR2 kg · m2, wh

kolezko [41]

Answer:

The angular velocity is $w = 53.35 \ rounds /minute$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of the block is $m = 61.2kg$

The of the pulley is $M = 14.2 kg$

The radius of the pulley is $R = 1.5m$

The radius of the cord around the pulley is $r = 1.5 m$

The distance of the block to the floor is $d = 8.0 m$

From the question we are told that the moment of inertia of the pulley is

$I = \frac{1}{2} MR^2 kg \cdot m^2$

Substituting value

$I = \frac{1}{2} * 14.2 * (1.5)^2$

$I = 15.975 kg \cdot m^2$

Using the Newtons law we can express the force acting on the vertical axis as

$ma = mg -T$

=> $T = mg -ma$

Now when the pulley is rotated that torque generated on the massless cord as a r result of the tension T and the radius of the cord around the pulley is mathematically represented as

$\tau = I \alpha$

Here $\alpha$ is the angular acceleration

Here $\tau$ is the torque which can be equivalent to

$\tau = T r$

Substituting this above

$Tr = I \alpha$

Substituting for T

$(mg - ma ) r = I\ r \alpha$

Here $a$ is the linear acceleration which is mathematically represented as

$a = r\alpha$

$(mg - m(r\alpha ) ) r = I\ r \alpha$

$mgr = I\alpha + m(r\alpha ) r$

$mgr = \alpha [ I + mr^2]$

making $\alpha$ the subject

$\alpha = \frac{mgr}{I -mr ^2}$

Substituting values

$\alpha = \frac{61.2 * 1.5 * 9.8}{15.975 + (61.2 ) * (1.5)^2}$

$\alpha =5.854 rad /s^2$

Now substituting into the equation above to obtain the acceleration

$a = 5.854 * 1.5$

$a=8.78 m/s^2$

This acceleration is $a = \frac{v}{t}$

and v is the linear velocity with is mathematically represented as

$v = \frac{d}{t}$

Substituting this into the formula acceleration

$a = \frac{d}{t^2}$

making t the subject

$t = \sqrt{\frac{d}{a} }$

substituting value

$t = \sqrt{\frac{8}{8.78}}$

$t = 0.9545 \ s$

Now the linear velocity is

$v = \frac{8}{0.9545}$

$v = 8.38 m/s$

The angular velocity is

$w = \frac{v}{r}$

So

$w = \frac{8.38}{1.5}$

$w = 5.59 rad/s$

Generally 1 radian is equal to 0.159155 rounds or turns

So 5.59 radian is equal to x

Now x is mathematically obtained as

$x = \frac{5.59 * 0.159155}{1}$

$= 0.8892 \ rounds$

Also

60 second = 1 minute

So 1 second = z

Now z is mathematically obtained as

$z = \frac{ 1}{60}$

z $= 0.01667 \ minute$

Therefore

$w = \frac{0.8892}{0.01667}$

$w = 53.35 \ rounds /minute$

Rachel collected data on the speed of sound waves passing through different media.

Helga [31]

The conclusion is, medium Q is most likely a solid because solids have the highest density and sound waves travel fastest in high density media.

<h3>Effect of density on speed of sound</h3>

Sound wave is mechanical wave that requires material medium for its propagation.

A high dense medium, is a medium with closely packed molecules. Since sound wave requires material medium for its propagation, it will travel faster in a high dense medium than a less dense medium.

Thus, the speed of sound increases as the density of the medium increases.

<h3>Speed of sound in the different media</h3>

The conclusion that can be made from the speed of sound in the different media is "Medium Q is most likely a solid because solids have the highest density and sound waves travel fastest in high density media".

The light at an intersection is red and a police officer directs you to go through the intersection. what should you do?

Alex777 [14]

Go through the intersection without stopping is the appropriate action to be taken in a case where the light at an intersection is red and a police officer directs you to go through it.

<h3>What is Traffic light?</h3>

This is also referred to as stoplights and is present in the intersection of roads etc so as to help control traffic and prevent the occurrences of accidents on the road.

In cases where there is no officer, the traffic light must be obeyed but where the officer is present then his authority overrules and must be obeyed as he is in the best position to know the reason why the traffic light should be ignored in this type of scenario.

This is therefore the reason why the individual should go through the intersection without stopping.

A dolphin in an aquatic show jumps straight up out of the water at a velocity of 13.0 m/s.

SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

a) Knowns, initial speed $v_{i}=13.0 m/s$ , final speed $v_{f}=0 m/s$ and gravity due it is a constant $g=9.8m/s^{2}$

b) The maximum high reached by the dolphin is $y_{max}=8.62 m$

c) Total time is $t=2.65s$

Explanation:

a) First of all the initial speed is given at the start of the problem, gravity is constant and final speed is known any object thrown straight up reaches its max high at $0m/s$ speed.

b) Second, now that we know final speed we use $v_{f} =v_{i}-gt$ , as we clear for $t=\frac{v_{i}-v_{f} }{g}=\frac{20.0m/s}{9.8m/s^{2} }=1.32 s$ .

Then we use $y=v_{i}t-\frac{1}{2} gt^{2}=(20.0m/s)(1.32s)-\frac{1}{2} (9.8m/s^{2} ) (1.32s)^{2} =8.62m$

c)Third, finally we can use $y=v_{i}t-\frac{1}{2} gt^{2}$ , as we know $y=0m$ when the dolphin fall into the water again and $v_{i} =13.0m/s$ , then we have $0=(13m/s)t-\frac{1}{2} (9.8m/s^{2} )t^{2}$ is a quadratic form $0=t(13.0-4.9t)$ so we have $t_{i}=0s$ and $t_{f}=\frac{13}{4.90} =2.65s$
