An object is released from rest near and above Earth’s surface from a distance of 10m. After applying the appropriate kinematic

equation, a student predicts that it will take 1.43s for the object to reach the ground with a speed of 14.3m/s . After performing the experiment, it is found that the object reaches the ground after a time of 3.2s. How should the student determine the actual speed of the object when it reaches the ground? Assume that the acceleration of the object is constant as it falls.

Answer:

v_y = 12.54 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

- Initial vertical distance y_o = 10 m

- Initial velocity v_y,o  = 0 m/s

- The acceleration of object in air = a_y

- The actual time taken to reach ground t = 3.2 s

Find:

- Determine the actual speed of the object when it reaches the ground?

Solution:

- Use kinematic equation of motion to compute true value for acceleration of the ball as it reaches the ground:

                             y = y_o + v_y,o*t + 0.5*a_y*t^2

                             0 = 10 + 0 + 0.5*a_y*(3.2)^2

                             a_y = - 20 / (3.2)^2 = 1.953125 m/s^2

- Use the principle of conservation of total energy of system:

                             E_p - W_f = E_k

Where,                  E_p = m*g*y_o

                             W_f = m*a_y*(y_i - y_f)      ..... Effects of air resistance

                             E_k = 0.5*m*v_y^2

Hence,                  m*g*y_o - m*a_y*(y_i - y_f) = 0.5*m*v_y^2

                             g*(10) - (1.953125)*(10) = 0.5*v_y^2

                             v_y = sqrt (157.1375)

                            v_y = 12.54 m/s

______ is the percent ionization of a weak acid in water increases as the concentration of acid decreases.
Nuetrik [128]

The ratio of concentration of ionized acid to the initial concentration of acid multiplied by 100 will give the percent ionization of a weak acid in water increases as the concentration of acid decreases.

Explanation:

Percent ionization is used for quantifying the number of ions present in the weak acid when dissolved in a solution. So it is similar to the pKa value. The percent ionization value can be determined as negative log of dissociation constant. Also the as the number of ions increases in weak acid, the concentration of acid will be decreasing . It can be calculated using the formula for percent ionization as follows:

Percent ionization = \frac{Ionized acid concentration}{Initial concentration of acid} * 100

As the water volume or concentration increases, the acid will get diluted much more thus leading to decrease in the concentration of acid.

So the ratio of concentration of ionized acid to the initial concentration of acid multiplied by 100 will give the percent ionization of a weak acid in water increases as the concentration of acid decreases.
