Choose the statement that is a misconception about a system in chemical equilibrium.
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

There are equal parts reactants and products.

Explanation:

When a system is in a chemical equilibrium, the rate at which the forward reaction occur is the same as the rate at which the reverse reaction occurs. This system is said to undergo a reversible reaction. The concentration of the reactants and products do not change, i.e are constant.

In a chemical equilibrium, the reaction continues in both directions but at the same rate.

Therefore the statement that is a misconception about a system in chemical equilibrium is 'There are equal parts reactants and products'.

A typical person's eye is 2.5 cm in diameter and has a near point (the closest an object can be and still be seen in focus) of 2
Scrat [10]

Answer:

The minimum effective focal length of the focusing mechanism (lens plus cornea) of the typical eye is 2.27 cm.

Explanation:

The diameter of person's eye is 2.5 cm. The close point or the near point of the eye is 25 cm and the far point is infinity. We need to determine the minimum effective focal length of the focusing mechanism (lens plus cornea) of the typical eye. Let f is the minimum effective focal length. It can be calculated using lens formula as :

\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{25}+\dfrac{1}{2.5}

f = 2.27 cm

So, the minimum effective focal length of the focusing mechanism (lens plus cornea) of the typical eye is 2.27 cm and it is at the nearest point. Hence, this is the required solution.

Technician A says that in a series circuit the total resistance of the circuit is the sum of all the individual resistances with
Neko [114]

Answer:

Both technicians are correct

Explanation:

Because we are talking about a series circuit, both technicians are correct.

  • <u>The total resistance of a series circuit is equal to the sum of each of all the individual resistances that make up the series circuit</u>, just as technician A says.
  • And similarly <u>when adding the voltage in each of the resistences or components of the series circuit it should be equal to the source voltage</u>, the voltage supplied to the circuit, which is what Technician B says.

For these reasons the answer is that both A and B are correct.

A car sits in an entrance ramp to a freeway, waiting for a break in the traffic. The driver sees a small gap between a van and a
masya89 [10]

Answer:

1

  a =  2.82 \  m/s^2

2

 t =  8.87 \  s

3

 s =  204 \  m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  speed of the car is  v  =  25.0 \  m/s

   The length of the ramp is  d =  111 \ m

   The  constant velocity of the traffic v_t  =  23.0 \  m/s

Generally the acceleration of the car is mathematically represented as

           a =  \frac{v^2  -  u^2 }{2d}

Here  u is  equal to zero given that the car started from rest so

           a =  \frac{25^2 - 0^2 }{2 *  111}

       =>    a =  2.82 \  m/s^2

Generally the time taken is mathematically represented as

      t = \frac{ v - u}{ a}

=>   t  = \frac{ 25 - 0}{2.82}

=>   t =  8.87 \  s

The  distance traveled by the traffic is mathematically represented as

  s =  v_{t}t + \frac{1}{2} a t^2

Here  a is zero given that the traffic was moving at constant speed

=>    s  =  23 *  8.87

=>     s =  204 \  m

Describe the motion of an object that possesses kinetic energy yet undergoes no net displacement.
antoniya [11.8K]

As per the question  the body possesses kinetic energy but the net displacement of the particle is zero.

Before going to explain the type of motion first  we have to know the basics of displacement.

The displacement is a vector quantity which has magnitude as well as direction .it is the minimum distance between two points out of all possible paths

Let us consider an example .let a body travels from point A to the point B and again comes to the back to the same point A .here the distance traveled is 2AB but the net displacement is zero.we have to apply this concept to solve this problem.

As the body possesses kinetic energy but the net displacement is zero .

This is in case of an circular motion.in circular motion the body possesses rotational kinetic energy but in every circular rotation ,the net displacement is zero.

One can take an example of oscillatory motion also.here the particle possesses vibrational kinetic energy ,but in each vibration ,the net displacement is zero.
