Answer: 17.68 s

Explanation:

This problem is a good example of Vertical motion, where the main equation for this situation is:  

y=y_{o}+V_{o}t-\frac{1}{2}gt^{2} (1)  

Where:  

y=0 is the height of the ball when it hits the ground  

y_{o}=70 m is the initial height of the ball

V_{o}=82m/s is the initial velocity of the ball  

t is the time when the ball strikes the ground

g=9.8m/s^{2} is the acceleration due to gravity  

Having this clear, let's find t from (1):  

0=70m+(82m/s)t-\frac{1}{2}(9.8m/s^{2})t^{2} (2)  

Rewritting (2):

-\frac{1}{2}(9.8m/s^{2})t^{2}+(82m/s)t+70m=0 (3)  

This is a quadratic equation (also called equation of the second degree) of the form at^{2}+bt+c=0, which can be solved with the following formula:

t=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}  (4)

Where:

a=-\frac{1}{2}(9.8m/s^{2}

b=82m/s

c=70m

Substituting the known values:

t=\frac{-82 \pm \sqrt{82^{2}-4(-\frac{1}{2}(9.8)(70)}}{2a}  (5)

Solving (5) we find the positive result is:

t=17.68 s

What is the concentration of OH– ions at a pH = 6?
makkiz [27]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

1 × 10^-8 M

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>

pH is given by the -log[H+] while

pOH is given by the -log[OH-]

But;

pH + pOH = 14

Thus; if pH is 6, then pOH = 8

pOH = 8

-log[OH-] = 8

[OH-] = 10^-8 M

The concentration of OH- ions at a pH of 6 is 1 × 10^-8 M
