Answer:

a. 0.32 b. 1448 m/s

Explanation:

We know v ∝ √T where v = velocity of sound and T = absolute temperature.

Let v₁ = velocity of sound at 17°, v₁ = fλ where f = frequency of sound = 512 Hz and λ = 66.5 cm = 0.665 m

So, v₁ = fλ = 512 Hz × 0.665 m = 340.48 m/s

T₁ = 17 + 273 = 290 K

Let v₂ = velocity of sound in air at NTP = unknown and T₂ = temperature at NTP = 0°C + 273 = 273 K

Now v₁/v₂ = √T₁/√T₂

So, v₂ = (√T₂/√T₁)v₁

= [√(T₂/T₁)]v₁

substituting the values of the variables, we have

v₂ =  [√(273 K/290 K)]340.48 m/s

v₂ =  [√0.9413]340.48 m/s

v₂ = (0.9702)340.48 m/s

v₂ = 330.35 m/s

Also v = √(γP/ρ) where v = velocity of sound in air at NTP  = 330.35 m/s, γ = ratio of molar heat capacities, P = pressure at NTP = 1.013 × 10⁵ Pa and ρ = density of air = 1.293 kg/m³

Since,  v = √(γP/ρ)

making γ subject of the formula, we have

γ = v²ρ/P

substituting the values of the variables, we have

γ = (330.35 m/s)² × 1.293 kg/m³/1.013 × 10⁵ Pa

= 31975.36 kg/m²s² ÷ 1.013 × 10⁵ Pa

= 0.32

b. Speed of sound in mercury v₃ = √(B/ρ) where B = Bulk modulus of mercury = 28.5 × 10⁹ Pa and ρ = density of mercury = 13600 kg/m³

v₃ = √(B/ρ)

= √(28.5 × 10⁹ Pa/13600 kg/m³)

= √(28.5 × 10⁹ Pa/13.6 × 10³ kg/m³)

= √(2.096 × 10⁶) m/s

= 1.448 × 10³ m/s

= 1448 m/s

The compound PCl5 decomposes into Cl2 and PCl3. The equilibrium of PCl5(g) Cl2(g) + PCl3(g) has a Keq of 2.24 x 10-2 at 327°C. W
nordsb [41]
Take note of the reaction formula which is PCl5=Cl2+PCl3.
The Keq = [Cl2] * [PCl3] / [PCl5]=2.24*10^-2.
For the reason that the volume is 1 liter, the concentration of Cl2 will be computed through: <span>(2.24 * 10^-2) * 0.235 / 0.174 </span> = 0.0303 mol/L is the answer.

Nonrenewable resources are natural resources that are limited in supply and cannot be replaced as quickly as they are used up.
zysi [14]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Nonrenewable resources ARE limited in supply. They don't get replaced at the speed they get made. For example: we pump crude oil from the ground at a rate that makes it impossible for crude oil to be replaced. Crude oil takes millions of years to produce

<h2>Answer:</h2>

(a) 10N

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The sketch of the two cases has been attached to this response.

<em>Case 1: The box is pushed by a horizontal force F making it to move with constant velocity.</em>

In this case, a frictional force F_{r} is opposing the movement of the box. As shown in the diagram, it can be deduced from Newton's law of motion that;

∑F = ma    -------------------(i)

Where;

∑F = effective force acting on the object (box)

m = mass of the object

a = acceleration of the object

∑F = F -  F_{r}

m = 50kg

a = 0   [At constant velocity, acceleration is zero]

<em>Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;</em>

F -  F_{r} = m x a

F -  F_{r} = 50 x 0

F -  F_{r} = 0

F =  F_{r}            -------------------(ii)

<em>Case 2: The box is pushed by a horizontal force 1.5F making it to move with a constant velocity of 0.1m/s²</em>

In this case, the same frictional force F_{r} is opposing the movement of the box.

∑F = 1.5F -  F_{r}

m = 50kg

a =  0.1m/s²

<em>Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;</em>

1.5F -  F_{r} = m x a

1.5F -  F_{r} = 50 x 0.1

1.5F -  F_{r} = 5            ---------------------(iii)

<em>Substitute </em>F_{r}<em> = F from equation (ii) into equation (iii) as follows;</em>

1.5F - F = 5            

0.5F = 5            

F = 5 / 0.5

F = 10N

Therefore, the value of F is 10N
