Answer:

b. able to travel through a vacuum.

Explanation:

The most distinguishing factor of an electromagnetic waves is that they are able to travel through a vacuum.

These waves do not require materials in a medium for propagation.

  • Electromagnetic waves are formed by the propagation of the electric and magnetic fields.
  • They vibrate at an angle of 90° .
  • They are unlike like mechanical waves that requires that requires materials in medium for their propagation.

A world-class sprinter running a 100 m dash was clocked at 5.4 m/s 1.0 s after starting running and at 9.8 m/s 1.5 s later. In w
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

<em>The output power is greater in the interval from 1.0 s to 2.5 s</em>

Explanation:

<u>Physical Power </u>

It measures the amount of work W an object does in certain time t. The formula needed to compute power is

\displaystyle P=\frac{W}{t}

Work can be computed in several ways since we are given the motion conditions, we'll use this formula, for F= applied force, x=distance parallel to F

W=F.x

The second Newton's law gives us the net force as

F=m.a

being m the mass of the object and a the acceleration it has for a given period of time. In our problem, we have two different behaviors for each interval and we must calculate this force since the acceleration is changing. Let's calculate the acceleration in the first interval. We can use the formula for the final speed vf knowing the initial speed vo (which is 0 because the sprinter starts from rest), the acceleration a, and the time t:

v_f=v_o+at

v_f=at

Solving for a

\displaystyle a=\frac{v_f}{t}={5.4}{1}

a=5.4\ m/s^2

The distance traveled in the interval is given by

\displaystyle x=v_o.t+\frac{a.t^2}{2}

Since vo=0

\displaystyle x=\frac{a.t^2}{2}=\frac{5.4(1)^2}{2}

x=2.7\ m

The force is given by

F=m.a

We don't know the value of m, so the force is

F=2.7m

Computing the work done by the sprinter

W=F.x=2.7m(5.4)

W=14.58m

The power is finally computed

\displaystyle P=\frac{W}{t}=\frac{14.58m}{1}

P=14.58m

During the second interval, from t=1 sec to 1.5 sec, the speed changes from 5.4 m/s to 9.8 m/s. This allows us to compute the second acceleration

\displaystyle a=\frac{v_f-v_o}{t}=\frac{9.8-5.4}{0.5}

a=8.8\ m/s^2

The distance is

\displaystyle x=(5.4).(0.5)+\frac{8.8(0.5)^2}{2}

x=3.8\ m

The net force is

F=m(8.8)=8.8m

The work done by the sprinter is now computed as

W=8.8m(3.8)=33.44m

At last, the output power is

\displaystyle P=\frac{33.44m}{0.5}=66.88m

By comparing both results, and being m the same for both parts, we conclude the output power is greater in the interval from 1.0 s to 2.5 s

In a chemical reaction, molecules of hydrogen gas (H2) react with molecules of oxygen gas (O2) in a sealed reaction chamber to p
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

Option (B) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that the molecules of hydrogen gas (H_2) react with molecules of oxygen gas (O_2) in a sealed reaction chamber to produce water (H_2O).

The governing equation for the reaction is

2H_2 +O_2 \rightarrow 2H_2O

From the given, the only fact that can be observed that 2 moles of H_2 and 1 mole of O_2 reacts to produce 2 moles of H_2O.

As the mass of 1 mole of H_2 = 2 grams ... (i)

The mass of 1 mole of O_2 = 32 grams ...(ii)

The mass of 1 mole of H_2O = 18 grams (iii)

Now, the mass of the reactant = Mass of 2 moles of H_2 + mass 1 mole of  O_2

= 2 \times 2 + 32  [ using equations (i) and (ii)]

=4+32 = 36 grams.

Mass of the product = Mass of 2 moles of H_2O

=2\times 18 [ using equations (iii)]

=36 grams

As the mass of reactants = mass of the product.

So, mass is conserved.

Hence, option (B) is correct.
