Answer:

\boxed{\sf Kinetic \ energy \ of \ the \ bear (KE) = 23002.1 \ J}

Given:

Mass of the polar bear (m) = 6.8 kg

Speed of the polar bear (v) = 5.0 m/s

To Find:

Kinetic energy of the polar bear (KE)

Explanation:

Formula:

\boxed{ \bold{\sf KE =  \frac{1}{2} m {v}^{2} }}

Substituting values of m & v in the equation:

\sf \implies KE =  \frac{1}{2}  \times 380.2 \times  {11}^{2}

\sf \implies KE = \frac{1}{ \cancel{2}}  \times  \cancel{2} \times 190.1 \times 121

\sf \implies KE = 190.1 \times 121

\sf \implies KE = 23002.1 \: J

\therefore

Kinetic energy of the polar bear (KE) = 23002.1 J

Answer : The mass of NaN_3 required is 71.175 grams.

Explanation :

To calculate the moles of nitrogen gas, we use the equation given by ideal gas :

PV = nRT

where,

P = Pressure of nitrogen gas = 763 torr

V = Volume of the nitrogen gas = 40.0 L

n = number of moles of gas = ?

R = Gas constant = 62.364\text{ L.torr }mol^{-1}K^{-1}

T = Temperature of helium gas = 25^oC=273+25=298K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

763torr\times 40.0L=n\times 62.364\text{ L.torr }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 298K\\\\n=1.642mol

Now we have to calculate the moles of NaN_3.

The balanced chemical reaction is:

2NaN_3(s)\rightarrow 2Na(s)+3N_2(g)

From the balanced chemical reaction, we conclude that

As, 3 moles of N_2 produced from 2 moles NaN_3

So, 1.642 moles of N_2 produced from \frac{2}{3}\times 1.642=1.095 moles NaN_3

Now we have to calculate the mass of NaN_3.

Molar mass of NaN_3 = 65 g/mol

\text{Mass of }NaN_3=\text{Moles of }NaN_3\times \text{Molar mass of }NaN_3

\text{Mass of }NaN_3=1.095mole\times 65g/mole=71.175g

Therefore, the mass of NaN_3 required is 71.175 grams.

Even though the Sun has a greater mass than Earth, the Moon orbits Earth because it's ___________________ to Earth than to the S
Pani-rosa [81]
<span>Even though the Sun has a greater mass than Earth, the Moon orbits Earth because it's closer to the Earth than to the Sun. Because of this proximity between the Earth and the Moon, the Earth has a stronger gravitational pull than the Sun does. Furthermore, the Earth's mass is 81 times that of the Moon, and so at this proximity, it is more than able to overpower what pull the Sun exerts on the Moon.</span>
