James was standing on a boat in deep ocean water. He wanted to see how long it would take a tennis ball to reach the shore if he

threw one in from the boat. Why wouldn't this plan work?

Answer:

only the wave energy of the water moves

Explanation:

The plan will not work due to the fact that only the wave energy of the water moves and not the water itself.

<em>The wave motion of water does not displace the water. It is only able to transfer energy from one point to another within the medium. Hence, the ball will hardly be displaced because the water itself does not move. However, it can get to the shore with the assistance of the water current.</em>

2a. Density is the relationship between mass and volume. Density has
Charra [1.4K]

The volume of copper : 3.24 ml

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Density is a quantity derived from the mass and volume

Density is the ratio of mass per unit volume

With the same mass, the volume of objects that have a high density will be smaller than objects with a smaller type of mass

The unit of density can be expressed in g/cm³ or kg/m³

Density formula:

\large{\boxed {\bold {\rho~=~ \frac {m} {V}}}}

ρ = density , g/cm³ or kg/m³

m = mass , g or kg

v = volume , cm³  or m³

A common example is the water density of 1 gr / cm³

The density of copper : 8.96 gr/ml

mass of copper : 29 g

then the volume :

\tt V=\dfrac{m}{\rho}\\\\V=\dfrac{29~g}{8.96~g/ml}\\\\V=\boxed{\bold{3.24~ml~or~3.24~cm^3}}

A certain compound of bromine and fluorine is used to make UF6, which is an important chemical in the processing and reprocessin
Aleksandr [31]

Answer: The empirical formula is BrF_3

Explanation:

If percentage are given then we are taking total mass is 100 grams.

So, the mass of each element is equal to the percentage given.

Mass of Br=  58.37 g

Mass of F = (100-58.37) = 41.63 g

Step 1 : convert given masses into moles.

Moles of Br=\frac{\text{ given mass of Br}}{\text{ molar mass of Br}}= \frac{58.37g}{80g/mole}=0.73moles

Moles of F =\frac{\text{ given mass of H}}{\text{ molar mass of H}}= \frac{41.63g}{19g/mole}=2.2moles

Step 2 : For the mole ratio, divide each value of moles by the smallest number of moles calculated.

For Br = \frac{0.73}{0.73}=1

For F = \frac{2.2}{0.7}=3

The ratio of Br: F= 1 : 3

Hence the empirical formula is BrF_3

The density of gold is 19.3 g/cm³. Which of the following shows the mass of a gold bar that is 4.50 cm × 8.00 cm × 20.00 cm?
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

13896g

Explanation:

volume = 4.50×8.00×20.00 = 720 cm³

mass = density × volume

mass= 19.3 × 720 = 13896g
