Answer:

810 pm

Explanation:

Step 1: Given and required data

  • Velocity of the atom (v): 490 m/s
  • Mass of a hydrogen atom (m): 1.67 × 10⁻²⁷ kg
  • Planck's constant (h): 6.63 × 10⁻³⁴ J.s

Step 2: Calculate the de Broglie wavelength of the hydrogen atom

We will use de Broglie's equation.

λ = h / m × v

λ = 6.63 × 10⁻³⁴ J.s / 1.67 × 10⁻²⁷ kg × 490 m/s = 8.10 × 10⁻¹⁰ m

Step 3: Convert 8.10 × 10⁻¹⁰ m to picometers

We will use the conversion factor 1 m = 10¹² pm.

8.10 × 10⁻¹⁰ m × 10¹² pm/1 m = 810 pm

What is the volume that you should dilute 30mL of a 12.0M H2SO4 solution to obtain a 0.160M H2SO4 solution?
shutvik [7]
To solve this problem, the dilution equation (M1 x V1 = M2 X V2) must be used. The given values in the problem are M1= 12.0 M, V1= 30 mL, and M2= 0.160 M. To solve for V2,
V2=M1xV1/M2
V2= (12x30)/0.16
V2= 2,250 mL.
The correct answer is 2.25 L.

KE and PE Math
slava [35]

Answer:

1. Answer: The bowling ball has more potential energy as it sits on top of the building. It does not have any kinetic energy because it is not moving.

2. Answer: The bowling ball has equal amounts of potential and kinetic energy half way through the fall. At the half way point, half of the potential energy has been converted to kinetic energy.

3. Answer: Just before the ball hits the ground, it has more kinetic energy. As it hits the ground the potential energy becomes zero.

4. Answer:

PE=784 J

5. Answer:  

PE = 392 J

6. Answer:

KE= 392 J

Also, since the PE and KE are equal at the half way point and PE =392 J, KE = 392 J.

7. What is the kinetic energy of the ball just before it hits the ground?

Answer:  

KE=784 J

At first I answered in the comments, but I am able to answer now. I hope this can help
