What are examples of a solution in solids, liquids, and gases

Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

Solid: metal alloy

Liquid: beer

Gas: Air

Explanation:

A solution is a type of mixture where the solvent and solute are homogeneously mixed. Homogeneous mixture means that the solute shouldn't be able to be seen with the naked eye, filtered and stable enough.

Metal alloy will be an example of a solution in solid-state. Beer is a solution made of liquid alcohol and liquid water. Air mostly composed of nitrogen, but it has oxygen, carbon dioxide, and many other substances in gaseous form.

A student standing on a stationary skateboard tosses a textbook with a mass of mb = 1.35 kg to a friend standing in front of him

nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

a) $u_c=0\ m.s^{-1}$ & $m_c.v_c=m_b.v_b\times \cos\theta$

b) $v_c=0.0566\ m.s^{-1}$

c) $p_e=2.9218\ kg.m.s^{-1}$

Explanation:

Given:

mass of the book, $m_b=1.35\ kg$

combined mass of the student and the skateboard, $m_c=97\ kg$

initial velocity of the book, $v_b=4.61\ m.s^{-1}$

angle of projection of the book from the horizontal, $\theta=28^{\circ}$

a)

velocity of the student before throwing the book:

Since the student is initially at rest and no net force acts on the student so it remains in rest according to the Newton's first law of motion.

$u_c=0\ m.s^{-1}$

where:

$u_c=$ initial velocity of the student

velocity of the student after throwing the book:

Since the student applies a force on the book while throwing it and the student standing on the skate will an elastic collision like situation on throwing the book.

$m_c.v_c=m_b.v_b\times \cos\theta$

where:

$v_c=$ final velcotiy of the student after throwing the book

b)

$m_c.v_c=m_b.v_b\times \cos\theta$

$97\times v_c=1.35\times 4.61\cos28$

$v_c=0.0566\ m.s^{-1}$

c)

Since there is no movement of the student in the vertical direction, so the total momentum transfer to the earth will be equal to the momentum of the book in vertical direction.

$p_e=m_b.v_b\sin\theta$

$p_e=1.35\times 4.61\times \sin28^{\circ}$

$p_e=2.9218\ kg.m.s^{-1}$

Say that you are in a large room at temperature TC = 300 K. Someone gives you a pot of hot soup at a temperature of TH = 340 K.

DiKsa [7]

Answer:0.061

Explanation:

Given

$T_C=300 k$

Temperature of soup $T_H=340 K$

heat capacity of soup $c_v=33 J/K$

Here Temperature of soup is constantly decreasing

suppose T is the temperature of soup at any instant

efficiency is given by

$\eta =\frac{dW}{Q}=1-\frac{T_C}{T}$

$dW=Q(1-\frac{T_C}{T})$

$dW=c_v(1-\frac{T_C}{T})dT$

integrating From $T_H$ to $T_C$

$\int dW=\int_{T_C}^{T_H}c_v(1-\frac{T_C}{T})dT$

$W=\int_{T_C}^{T_H}33\cdot (1-\frac{300}{T})dT$

$W=c_v\left [ T-T_C\ln T\right ]_{T_H}^{T_C}$

$W=c_v\left [ \left ( T_C-T_H\right )-T_C\left ( \ln \frac{T_C}{T_H}\right )\right ]$

Now heat lost by soup is given by

$Q=c_v(T_C-T_H)$

Fraction of the total heat that is lost by the soup can be turned is given by

$=\frac{W}{Q}$

$=\frac{c_v\left [ \left ( T_C-T_H\right )-T_C\left ( \ln \frac{T_C}{T_H}\right )\right ]}{c_v(T_C-T_H)}$

$=\frac{T_C-T_H-T_C\ln (\frac{T_C}{T_H})}{T_C-T_H}$

$=\frac{300-340-300\ln (\frac{300}{340})}{300-340}$

$=\frac{-40+37.548}{-40}$

$=0.061$

What net force would be needed to accelerate the box at 2.3 m/s^2

Akimi4 [234]

The pertinent equation here is F=ma. You haven't shared the mass of the box, so I will use M to represent that mass.

Then F = M(<span>2.3 m/s^2) (answer)</span>
