A block with a mass M = 4.85 kg is resting on a slide that has a curved surface. There is no friction. The speed of the block af

ter it has slid along the slide sufficiently far for its vertical drop to be 19.6 m is:__________a. 19.6 m/s b. 384 m/s c. 93 m/s d. 43.2 m/s e. The problem cannot be solved because the shape of the curved slide is not given.

Answer:

The correct option is a

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of the block is $m = 4.84 \ kg$

The height of the vertical drop is $h = 19.6 \ m$

Generally from the law of energy conservation , the potential energy at the top of the slide is equal to the kinetic energy at the point after sliding this can be mathematically represented as

$PE = KE$

i.e $m * g * h = \frac{1}{2} * m * v^2$

=> $gh = 0.5 v^2$

=> $v = \sqrt{\frac{9.8 * 19.6}{0.5 } }$

=> $v = 19.6 \ m/s$

Answer:

2 electrons will be needed by unbound oxygen in order to fill its 2nd shell.

Explanation:

The chemical reaction between magnesium and oxygen gives magnesium oxide as a product.The reaction is chemically represented as:

$2Mg(s)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2MgO(s)$

Magnesium is a metal of group-2 with 2 valence electrons.It has atomic number of 12.

$[Mg]=1s^22s^22p^63s^2$

In order to attain noble gas configuration it will loose two electrons.

$[Mg]^{2+}=1s^22s^22p^6$

$Mg\rightarrow Mg^{2+}+2e^-$ ...[1]

Oxygen is a non metal of group-16 with 6 valence electrons..It has atomic number of 8.

$[O]=1s^22s^22p^4$

In order to attain noble gas configuration it will gain two electrons.

$[O]^{2-}=1s^22s^22p^6$

$O+2e^-\rightarrow O^{2-}$ ..[2]

2 electrons will be needed by unbound oxygen in order to fill its 2nd shell.

0.5-lbm of a saturated vapor is converted to asaturated liquid by being cooled in a weighted piston-cylinder device maintained a

klio [65]

Answer:

The boiling point temperature of this substance when its pressure is 60 psia is 480.275 R

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Using the Clapeyron equation

$(\frac{dP}{dT} )_{sat } = \frac{h_{fg}}{Tv_{fg}}$

$(\frac{dP}{dT} )_{sat } = \frac{\frac{H_{fg}}{m} }{T\frac{V_{fg}}{m} }$

where $h_{fg$ is the change in enthalpy of saturated vapor to saturated liquid ( 250 Btu

T is the temperature ( 15 + 460 )R

m is the mass of water ( 0.5 Ibm )

$V_{fg$ is specific volume ( 1.5 ft³ )

we substitute

$(\frac{dP}{dT} )_{sat } =( \frac{250Btu\frac{778Ibf-ft}{Btu} }{0.5})$ / $( (15+460)\frac{1.5}{0.5})$

$(\frac{dP}{dT} )_{sat } =$ 272.98 Ibf-ft²/R

Now,

$(\frac{dP}{dT} )_{sat } =$ $(\frac{P_2 - P_1}{T_2 - T_1})_{sat$

where P₁ is the initial pressure ( 50 psia )

P₂ is the final pressure ( 60 psia )

T₁ is the initial temperature ( 15 + 460 )R

T₂ is the final temperature = ?

we substitute;

$T_2$ $= ( 15 + 460 ) + \frac{(60-50)psia(\frac{144in^2}{ft^2}) }{272.98}$

$T_2 = 475 + 5.2751\\$

$T_2 =$ 480.275 R

Therefore, boiling point temperature of this substance when its pressure is 60 psia is 480.275 R

Does a car speedometer measure speed, velocity, or both?explain

Crank

Answer:

Car speedometer only measures speed and doesn't give any information about direction. So yes to speed, no to velocity.
