Answer:

Your answer is: K.E = 8.3 J

Explanation:

If the height (h) = 169.2 meters (m) and the mass (m) is 0.005 kilograms (kg) the total energy will be kinetic energy which is equal to the potential energy.

K.E = P.E and also P.E equals to mgh

Then you substitute all the parameters into the formula  ↓

P.E = 0.005 × 9.81 × 169.2

P.E = 8.2908 J

So your answer is 8.2908 but if you round it is K.E = 8.3

A voltaic cell with an aqueous electrolyte is based on the reaction between Cd2+(aq) and Mg(s), producing Cd(s) and Mg2+(aq). Wr
Monica [59]

Answer : The balanced two-half reactions will be,

Oxidation half reaction (anode) : Mg(s)\rightarrow Mg^{2+}(aq)+2e^-

Reduction half reaction (cathode) : Cd^{2+}(aq)+2e^-\rightarrow Cd(s)

Thus the overall reaction will be,

Mg(s)+Cd^{2+}(aq)\rightarrow Mg^{2+}(aq)+Cd(s)

Explanation :

Voltaic cell : It is defined as a device which is used for the conversion of the chemical energy produces in a redox reaction into the electrical energy. It is also known as the galvanic cell or electrochemical cell.

The given redox reaction occurs between the magnesium and cadmium.

In the voltaic cell, the oxidation occurs at an anode which is a negative electrode and the reduction occurs at the cathode which is a positive electrode.

The balanced two-half reactions will be,

Oxidation half reaction (anode) : Mg(s)\rightarrow Mg^{2+}(aq)+2e^-

Reduction half reaction (cathode) : Cd^{2+}(aq)+2e^-\rightarrow Cd(s)

Thus the overall reaction will be,

Mg(s)+Cd^{2+}(aq)\rightarrow Mg^{2+}(aq)+Cd(s)

A student investigated how length affects resistance of a wire.
Mrac [35]

Answer:

X is ammeter and Y is voltmeter

Explanation:

The resistance of a wire is directly proportional to the length of the wire. That is the longer the length of the wire, the higher the resistance and the shorter the length of the wire, the smaller the resistance.

Ammeter is a measuring instrument used to measure the current in a circuit by connecting the meter in series with the circuit.

Ammeter is a measuring instrument used to measure the potential difference between two points by connecting the meter in parallel to the points.

Meter X is an ammeter since it is connected in series and meter Y is a voltmeter because it is connected in parallel.

The drill used by most dentists today is powered by a small air-turbine that can operate at angular speeds of 350000 rpm. These
alexdok [17]

Answer:

θ  = 6.3 *10³ revolutions

Explanation:

Angular acceleration of the drill

We apply the equations of circular motion uniformly accelerated

ωf= ω₀ + α*t  Formula (1)

Where:  

α : Angular acceleration (rad/s²)  

ω₀ : Initial angular speed ( rad/s)  

ωf : Final angular speed ( rad

t :  time interval (s)

Data

ω₀ = 0

ωf = 350000 rpm = 350000 rev/min

1 rev = 2π rad

1 min= 60 s

ωf = 350000 rev/min =350000*(2π rad/60 s)

ωf = 36651.9 rad/s

t = 2.2 s

We replace data in the formula (2) :

ωf= ω₀ + α*t

36651.9 = 0 + α* (2.2)

α = 36651.9 / (2.2)

α = 17000 rad/s²

Revolutions made by the drill

We apply the equations of circular motion uniformly accelerated

ωf²= ω₀ ²+ 2α*θ Formula (2)

Where:  

θ : Angle that the body has rotated in a given time interval (rad)

We replace data in the formula (2):  

(ωf)²= ω₀²+ 2α*θ

(36651.9)²= (0)²+ 2( 17000 )*θ

θ = (36651.9)²/ (34000 )

θ  = 39510.64 rad = 39510.64 rad* (1 rev/2πrad)

θ  = 6288.31 revolutions

θ  = 6.3 *10³ revolutions
