Answer:
Explanation:
ΔE = Δm × c^2
where,
ΔE = change in energy released with respect to change in mass
= 1.554 × 10^3 kJ
= 1.554 × 10^6 J
Δm = change in mass
c = the speed of light.
= 3 × 10^8 m/s
Equation of the reaction:
2H2 + O2 --> 2H2O
Mass change in this process, Δm = 1.554 × 10^6/(3 × 10^8)^2
= 1.727 × 10^-11 kg
The change in mass calculated from Einstein equation is small that its effect on formation of product will be negligible. Hence, law of conservation of mass holds correct for chemical reactions.
Answer: -2m/s²
Explanation:
Each second, the acceleration decreases of 2m/s²
N.B.: in physics, deceleration is also acceleration.
Answer:
Speed
Explanation:
- Speed is a scalar quantity that represents the rate of change of distance. It is calculated as
where
d is the distance travelled by the object (regardless of its direction)
t is the time elapsed
The speed is measured in meters per second (m/s). We can also notice that speed is different from velocity: in fact, speed is a scalar quantity (magnitude only), while velocity is a vector quantity (magnitude+direction).
