Agustina was standing on the edge of a cliff of unknown height holding a bowling ball. She wanted to find the height of the clif

f. She worked with Maite to time the how long the bowling took to fall to the bottom of the cliff. Maite timed the drop at 9.4 seconds on each of their 10 trials. The bowling ball started at rest on each of the trials. What distance did the bowling ball fall in each trial?

Answer:

433 m

Explanation:

Since the fall represents motion under gravity, we use the equation

s = ut - 1/2gt² where s = height of cliff or distance bowling ball falls through, u = initial velocity of bowling ball = 0 m/s(since it starts from rest), t = time = 9.4 s and g = acceleration due to gravity = -9.8 m/s².

So, substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

s = 0 m/s × 9.4 s - 1/2 × 9.8 m/s² × (9.4 s)²

s = 0 m - 1/2 × -9.8 m/s² × 88.36 s²

s = 1/2(865.928 m)

s = 432.964

s ≅ 433 m

A 10.0 g sample of propane, C3H8, was combusted in a constant-volume bomb calorimeter. The total heat capacity of the bomb calor
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

83ºC

Explanation:

A bomb calorimeter is an instrument used to measure the heat that release or absorb a particular reaction.

The reaction of combustion of propane is:

C₃H₈ +  5O₂ → 3 CO₂ + 4 H₂O ΔH = -2222kJ/mol

<em>1 mole of propane release 2222kJ</em>

10.0g of propane (Molar mass: 44.1g/mol).

10.0g ₓ (1mol/ 44.1g) = <em>0.227 moles of C₃H₈</em>

If 1 mole of propane release 2222kJ, 0.227moles will release (Release because molar heat is < 0):

0.227 moles of C₃H₈ ₓ (2222kJ / mol) = 504kJ.

Our calorimeter has a constant of 8.0kJ/ºC, that means if there are released 8.0kJ, the bomb calorimeter will increase its temperature in 1ºC. As there are released 504kJ:

504kJ ₓ (1ºC / 8.0kJ) = 63ºC will increase the temperature in the bomb calorimeter.

As initial temperature was 20ºC, final temperature will be:

Scientific knowledge can withstand the test of time because A. exceptions can be made regarding scientific laws. B. it is open t
Iteru [2.4K]

B. It is open to change as new evidence or data is discovered. If scientists discover new evidence, they must modify their theories to conform with the new data.

A. is <em>incorrect</em>. Scientific laws are so well established that there can be no exceptions.

C. is <em>incorrect</em>. A scientific theory is the collective judgement of scientists as to the best explanation for a phenomenon. A new observation may require modification of the theory.

D. is <em>incorrect</em>. Advancements in technology can provide new evidence that requires new explanations.
