Does gravity affect acceleration? How?

1 answer:

5 0

Answer: When objects fall to the ground, gravity causes them to accelerate. Acceleration is a change in velocity, and velocity, in turn, is a measure of the speed and direction of motion. Gravity causes an object to fall toward the ground at a faster and faster velocity the longer the object falls.

Predict the sign of ΔSsys for each of the following processes. Which are positive? (a) Gasoline vapors mix with air in a car eng

OLEGan [10]

Answer:

Positive: a and b

Negative: c

Explanation:

The entropy (S) is the measure of the randomness of the system, and it intends to increase. The randomness can be determined by the energy of the molecules, their velocity and how distance they are between the other molecules.

When the entropy increases, ΔS is positive, when the entropy decreases, ΔS is negative. So, when gasoline mix with air in a car engine, the process intends to continue, the randomness increases and ΔS is positive. When hot air expands, the distance between the molecules increases, so ΔS is positive.

But, when humidity condenses, the molecules stay closer, so there's a decrease in the randomness, then ΔS is negative.

Knowing the gravity on the moon is 1.6m/s what is your weight?

wariber [46]

Weight varies dramatically if we leave earths surface.On the moon for example acceleration due to gravity is only 1.67m/s2 A 1.0-kg mass thus has a weight of 9.8 N on Earth and only about 1.7 N on the moon

Given the reaction _K(s) +_ Cl2(g) → _KCl(s) what is the amount of K, in grams, needed to completely react with 2 moles of Cl2(g

damaskus [11]

Answer:

156.4g K

Explanation:

I'm not sure if it is correct but I think it should be this

What do we know so far?: 2K + 1Cl2 -> 2KCl, 2 mol of Cl2

What are we looking for?: #g of K

What is the ratio of K to Cl2?: 2:1

Set up equation: 2molCl2 x $\frac{2mol K}{1 mol Cl2}$

Cancel unwanted units: 2 x $\frac{2mol K}{1}$

Answer we got: 2 x 2mol K = 4mol K

Converting moles to grams: 4 x 39.1 (molar mass of K) = 156.4g K

Hydroelectricity and tidal energy are similar because

vovikov84 [41]

C. both sources of energy rely on water.

Explanation:

Hydroelectricity and tidal energy are similar energy sources because they both rely on water.

They harness the power of moving water to produce their energy.

Tidal energy is the energy derived from moving water as crashing waves in an ocean.
Hydroelectricity is produce when water from a dam channel is used to drive heavy turbines.
They are both renewable energy sources.

What is the percent ionization of a 1.8 M HC2H3O2 solution (Ka = 1.8 10-5 ) at 25°C?

xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

B) 0.32 %

Explanation:

Given that:

$K_{a}=1.8\times 10^{-5}$

Concentration = 1.8 M

Considering the ICE table for the dissociation of acid as:-

$\begin{matrix}&CH_3COOH&\rightleftharpoons &CH_3COOH&+&H^+\\ At\ time, t = 0 &1.8&&0&&0\\At\ time, t=t_{eq}&-x&&+x&&+x\\ ----------------&-----&-&-----&-&-----\\Concentration\ at\ equilibrium:-&1.8-x&&x&&x\end{matrix}$

The expression for dissociation constant of acid is:

$K_{a}=\frac {\left [ H^{+} \right ]\left [ {CH_3COO}^- \right ]}{[CH_3COOH]}$

$1.8\times 10^{-5}=\frac{x^2}{1.8-x}$

$1.8\left(1.8-x\right)=100000x^2$

Solving for x, we get:

Percentage ionization = $\frac{0.00568}{1.8}\times 100=0.32 \%$

<u>Option B is correct.</u>
