0.16 mol of argon gas is admitted to an evacuated 70 cm^3 container at 30°C. The gas then undergoes an isothermal expansion to a

Semmy [17]

Answer:

The final pressure of the gas is 9.94 atm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Weight of argon = 0.16 mol

Initial volume = 70 cm³

Angle = 30°C

Final volume = 400 cm³

We need to calculate the initial pressure of gas

Using equation of ideal gas

$PV=nRT$

$P_{i}=\dfrac{nRT}{V}$

Where, P = pressure

R = gas constant

T = temperature

Put the value in the equation

$P_{i}=\dfrac{0.16\times8.314\times(30+273)}{70\times10^{-6}}$

$P_{i}=5.75\times10^{6}\ Pa$

$P_{i}=56.827\ atm$

We need to calculate the final temperature

Using relation pressure and volume

$P_{2}=\dfrac{P_{1}V_{1}}{V_{2}}$

$P_{2}=\dfrac{56.827\times70}{400}$

$P_{2}=9.94\ atm$

Hence, The final pressure of the gas is 9.94 atm.

Solve for the length of the inclined plane if the angle equals 19.45 degrees.

mel-nik [20]

The length of the inclined plane is approximately 12 ft

The situation forms a right angle triangle.

<h3>Right triangle</h3>

Right triangle have one of its angle as 90 degrees.

Therefore,

The length of the inclined plane is the hypotenuse of the triangle. The length of the inclined plane can be found using trigonometric ratios.

height = 4 ft

angle(∅) = 19.45°

sin 19.45 = 4 / h

h = 4 / 0.33298412235

h = 12.0125847796

h = 12 ft

Therefore, the length of the inclined plane is approximately 12 ft

A sodium atom will absorb light with a wavelength near 589 nm if the light is within 10 MHz of the resonant frequency. The atomi

Troyanec [42]

Answer:

i)20369 photons

ii) 40 ps

Explanation:

Momentum of one Sodium atom:

$P=m*v =600m/s*23amu*\frac{1 kg}{6.02*10^{23}amu}\\P=2.29*10^{-23}kgm/s$

In other to stop it, it must absorb the same momentum in photons:

$P=2.29*10^{-23}kgm/s=n_{photons}*\frac{h_{planck}}{\lambda}\\=n*\frac{6.63*10^{-34}}{589*10^{-9}} \\==>n=20369 photons$

Now, for the minimun time, we use the speed of light and the wavelength. For the n photons:

$t=n*T=n*\frac{\lambda}{c} =20369*\frac{589nm}{3*10^{8}m/s}=4*10^{-11} second=40 ps$

Clay Matthews, a linebacker for the Green Bay Packers, can reach a speed of 10.0 m/s. At the start of a play, Matthews runs down

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

a) D_ total = 18.54 m, b) v = 6.55 m / s

Explanation:

In this exercise we must find the displacement of the player.

a) Let's start with the initial displacement, d = 8 m at a 45º angle, use trigonometry to find the components

sin 45 = y₁ / d

cos 45 = x₁ / d

y₁ = d sin 45

x₁ = d sin 45

y₁ = 8 sin 45 = 5,657 m

x₁ = 8 cos 45 = 5,657 m

The second offset is d₂ = 12m at 90 of the 50 yard

y₂ = 12 m

x₂ = 0

total displacement

y_total = y₁ + y₂

y_total = 5,657 + 12

y_total = 17,657 m

x_total = x₁ + x₂

x_total = 5,657 + 0

x_total = 5,657 m

D_total = 17.657 i^+ 5.657 j^ m

D_total = Ra (17.657 2 + 5.657 2)

D_ total = 18.54 m

b) the average speed is requested, which is the offset carried out in the time used

v = Δx /Δt

the distance traveled using the pythagorean theorem is

r = √ (d1² + d2²)

r = √ (8² + 12²)

r = 14.42 m

The time used for this shredding is

t = t1 + t2

t = 1 + 1.2

t = 2.2 s

let's calculate the average speed

v = 14.42 / 2.2

v = 6.55 m / s

A certain type of bird lives in two regions of a state. The distribution of weight for birds of this type in the northern region

Annette [7]

Answer: (a) Z-score are 1 and -1.2 for northern and southern regions, respectively.

Explanation: Z-score is how many standard deviations a data is from the population mean or how far a data point is from the mean.

The z-score is calculated by the following:

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

where

x is the data point

μ is population mean

σ is standard deviation

For the northern region birds:

μ = 10, σ = 3, x = 13

$z=\frac{13-10}{3}$

z = 1

The z-score for birds living in the northern region is 1, which means it is 1 standard deviation above the mean.

For the southern region:

μ = 16, σ = 2.5, x = 13

$z=\frac{13-16}{2.5}$

z = -1.2

The z-score for southern living birds is -1.2, meaning it is 1.2 standard deviations below the mean.
