A 6.1-kg solid sphere, made of metal whose density is 2600 kg/m3, is suspended by a cord. When the sphere is immersed in a liqui

deff fn [24]

Answer:

Density of the liquid = 1470.43 kg/m³

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of solid sphere(m) = 6.1 kg

Density of the metal = 2600 kg/m³

Thus volume of the liquid :

$Volume(V)=\frac{Mass(m)}{Density (\rho)}$

Volume of the sphere = 6.1 kg/2600 kg/m³ = 0.002346 m³

The volume of water displaced is equal to the volume of sphere (Archimedes' principle)

Volume displaced = 0.002346 m³

Buoyant force = $\rho\times gV$

Where

$\rho$ is the density of the fluid

g is the acceleration due to gravity

V is the volume displaced

The free body diagram of the sphere is shown in image.

According to image:

$mg=\rho\times gV+T$

Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 ms⁻²

Tension force = 26 N

Applying in the equation to find the density of the liquid as:

$6.1\times 9.81=\rho\times 9.81\times 0.002346+26$

$33.841=\rho\times 9.81\times 0.002346$

$\rho=\frac{33.841}{9.81\times 0.002346}$

$\rho=1470.43 kgm^3$

<u>Thus, the density of the liquid = 1470.43 kg/m³</u>

Calculate the equilibrium constant k for the isomerization of glucose-1-phosphate to fructose-6-phosphate at 298 k. express your

k0ka [10]

We cannot solve this problem without using empirical data. These reactions have already been experimented by scientists. The standard Gibb's free energy, ΔG°, (occurring in standard temperature of 298 Kelvin) are already reported in various literature. These are the known ΔG° for the appropriate reactions.

<span>glucose-1-phosphate⟶glucose-6-phosphate ΔG∘=−7.28 kJ/mol
fructose-6-phosphate⟶glucose-6-phosphate ΔG∘=−1.67 kJ/mol
</span>
Therefore, the reaction is a two-step process wherein glucose-6-phosphate is the intermediate product.

glucose-1-phosphate⟶glucose-6-phosphate⟶fructose-6-phosphate

In this case, you simply add the ΔG°. However, since we need the reverse of the second reaction to end up with the terminal product, fructose-6-phosphate, you'll have to take the opposite sign of ΔG°.

ΔG°,total = −7.28 kJ/mol + 1.67 kJ/mol = -5.61 kJ/mol

Then, the equation to relate ΔG° to the equilibrium constant K is

ΔG° = -RTlnK, where R is the gas constant equal to 0.008317 kJ/mol-K.
-5.61 kJ./mol = -(0.008317 kJ/mol-K)(298 K)(lnK)
lnK = 2.2635
K = e^2.2635
K = 9.62

When might a galaxy appear redshifted and why?

mylen [45]

Redshift is said to be experienced when the light or any other electromagnetic radiations from an object undergo an increase in the wavelength but it does not mean that the light literally becomes red.

Redshift occurs due to the expansion of space. It means the farther away the galaxy is from us, the more space it has expanded in the time.

Because as the light left the galaxy, more of the light has been stretched and so more redshifted the light is.
