<u>Answer</u>:

The primary method by which the planets have been found around other stars in the galaxy is Kepler Space Telescope.

<u>Explanation</u>:

The primary method by which planets have been found around other stars in our beautiful Galaxy is the Kepler space telescope. Kepler launched Kepler Telescope in 2009 to help to find terrestrial planets super-earth etc.

This is the telescope which measures the amount of light coming from a star and detects a slight variation in brightness as a planet passes in front. Using this technique NASA's Kepler Mission has founded thousands of candidate planet in this world.

If an object falls from rest and lands 3.2 seconds later, how many<br> meters did it fall
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

50.2 meters

Explanation:

When an object falls, it goes a distance d in time t according to the formula:

d=\frac{1}{2}*g*t^{2}

d is the distance in meter, g is the acceleration due to gravity with the value of 9.8m/s^{2} , t is the time in seconds

Therefore, d = \frac{1}{2}*9.8*(3.2)^{2}

d= 50.176 ≈ 50.2m

A girl standing upright exerts a pressure of 15000 N/m2 on the floor. Given that the total area of contact of shoes and the floo
lapo4ka [179]

Explanation:

F=15000/0.02

=300N

total area contact of the shoes and floor when stood in one foot=0.02m^2/2=0.01m^2

P=F/A

=300/0.01

=30 000Pa/30 000Nm^-2

in another way=15000×2

=30000N/m^2

Several different compounds can share the same empirical formula. The Molecular weight for three compounds with the empirical fo
Pie

Molecular formulas:

  1. CH₂O;
  2. C₂H₄O₂;
  3. C₆H₁₂O₆.
<h3>Explanation</h3>

The empirical formula of a compound tells only the ratio between atoms of each element. The empirical formula CH₂O indicates that in this compound,

  • for each C atom, there are
  • two H atoms, and
  • one O atom.

The molecular weight (molar mass) of the molecule depends on how many such sets of atoms in each molecule. The empirical formula doesn't tell anything about that number.

It's possible to <em>add</em> more of those sets of atoms to a molecular formula to increase its molar mass. For every extra set of those atoms added, the molar mass increase by the mass of that set of atoms. The mass of one mole of C atoms, two mole of H atoms, and one mole of O atoms is 12.0 + 2\times 1.0 + 16.0 = 30.0\;\text{g}.

  • CH₂O- 30.0 g/mol;
  • C₂H₄O₂- 30.0 + 30.0 = 2 × 30.0 = 60.0 g/mol;
  • C₃H₆O₃- 30.0 + 30.0 + 30.0 = 3 × 30.0 = 90.0 g/mol.

It takes one set of those atoms to achieve a molar mass of 30.0 g/mol. Hence the molecular formula CH₂O.

It takes two sets of those atoms to achieve a molar mass of 60.0 g/mol. Hence the molecular formula C₂H₄O₂.

It takes \dfrac{180.0}{30.0} = 6 sets of those atoms to achieve a molar mass of 180.0 g/mol. Hence the molecular formula C₆H₁₂O₆.
