Define orbit and orbital motion, and explain why orbital motion occurs.

Chemistry
1 answer:
pychu [463]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Orbital motion occurs whenever an object is moving forward and at the same time is pulled by gravity toward another object. ... The result is a circular or oval path called an orbit, in which one object keeps moving around the other. Because of the relatively great gravity of the sun, Earth orbits the sun

Density measurements were conducted on a 22.5oC sample of water which had a theoretical density of 0.997655 g/ml. A volume of 10
Sophie [7]

Let's divide the three experiments: The experiment with 10.00 mL of water is A), the experiment with 15.00 mL is B), and the experiment with 25.00 mL is C).

  • (1) Now let's calculate the experimental density of each experiment. Density (ρ) is equal to the mass divided by the volume, thus:

p_{A} =9.98g/10.00mL=0.998g/mL\\p_{B} =15.61g/15.00mL=1.041g/mL\\p_{C} =25.65g/25.00mL=1.026g/mL

  • (2)To calculate the average density, we add each density and divide the result by the number of experiments (in this case 3):

p_{average}=\frac{p_{1}+p_{2}+p_{3}}{3}   \\p_{average}=\frac{(0.998+1.041+1.026)g/mL}{3}\\p_{average}=1.022g/mL

  • (3) The percent error is calculated by dividing the absolute value of the substraction of the theorethical and experimental values, by the theoretical value, times 100:

%error=\frac{|p_{average}-p_{theoretical}|}{p_{theoretical}} *100

%error=\frac{|1.022g/mL-0.997655g/mL|}{0.997655g/mL}*100

%error=2.44 %

The equation for one of the reactions in the process of turning iron ore into the metal is
Leona [35]

Answer:

2100g or 2.1kg

Explanation:

Based on the equation given,

One mole of Fe2O3 gives two moles of Fe

Molar mass for Fe2O3 is 160g/mol

Molar mass for two Fe is 112g/mol

Convert 3kg to gram

3×1000=3000grams

160g of Fe2O3-112 g of Fe

3000g of Fe2O3-xg of Fe

Xg=3000×112/160

Xg=2100g

To convert to kg

2100/1000=2.1kg

Mass of Fe is 2.1kg

Find the equation of the line passing through the points (2, 1) and (5, 10).​
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

The equation : y=3x-5

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Straight-line equations are mathematical equations that are described in the plane of cartesian coordinates

General formula

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

or

y = mx + c

Where

m = straight-line gradient which is the slope of the line

x1, y1 = the Cartesian coordinate that is crossed by the line

c = constant

The formula for a gradient (m) between 2 points in a line

m = Δy / Δx

  • Gradient

\tt \dfrac{10-1}{5-2}=3

  • Equation

\tt y-1=3(x-2)\\\\y-1=3x-6\\\\y=3x-5
