Answer:
See below explanation
Explanation:
The correspondent chemical reaction for copper carbonate decomposed by heat is:
CuCO₃ (s) → CuO (s) + CO₂ (g)
Considering all molar mass (MM) for each element ( we consider rounded numbers) :
MM CuCO₃ = 123 g/mol
MM CuO = 79 g/mol
MM CO₂ = 44 g/mol
Statement mentions that scientis heated 123.6 g of CuCO₃ (almost a MM), until a black residue is obtained, which weights 79.6 g : this solid residue is formed by CuO, and the remaining mass (approximatelly 44 g) belongs to teh second product, this is, CO₂; as it is a gas compund, it is not certainly included on the solid residue.
So, law of conservation mass is true for this case, since: 123.6 g = 79.6 g + 44 g. As explained, on the solid residue, we don not include the 44 g, which "escaped" from our system, since it is a gas compound (CO₂)
4. The Coyote has an initial position vector of
.
4a. The Coyote has an initial velocity vector of
. His position at time
is given by the vector

where
is the Coyote's acceleration vector at time
. He experiences acceleration only in the downward direction because of gravity, and in particular
where
. Splitting up the position vector into components, we have
with


The Coyote hits the ground when
:

4b. Here we evaluate
at the time found in (4a).

5. The shell has initial position vector
, and we're told that after some time the bullet (now separated from the shell) has a position of
.
5a. The vertical component of the shell's position vector is

We find the shell hits the ground at

5b. The horizontal component of the bullet's position vector is

where
is the muzzle velocity of the bullet. It traveled 3500 m in the time it took the shell to fall to the ground, so we can solve for
:
