Identical objects, Object X and Object Y, are tied together by a string and placed at rest on an incline, as shown in the figure
goblinko [34]

The slope of the velocity time graph of an object moving with constant acceleration is constant

It will take approximately <u>3 seconds</u> for the center of mass of Object X to reach point J near the bottom of the incline

The reason why the above time value is correct is given as follows:

Known parameters:

Initial velocity of the objects, u = 0

The graph  in the question is a straight line graph with data points

(0, 0), (0.5, 1.0), (1.0, 2), (3.0, 6), and (3.5, 7)

Given that the slope of the velocity-time graph is constant, we have that the acceleration is constant and is given as follows;

a = \dfrac{\Delta v}{\Delta t } = \dfrac{v_2 - v_1}{t_2 - t_1}

Therefore;

a =  \dfrac{6 - 2}{3.0 - 1.0} = 2

The acceleration, a ≈ 2 m/s²

The distance from the center of mass of the Object X to the point J near the bottom = 9 m

The equation for distance travelled is given as follows;

s = u\cdot t + \dfrac{1}{2} \cdot a \cdot t^2

Which gives;

9 =  0\times t + \dfrac{1}{2} \times 2 \times t^2 = t^2

t = √9 = 3

The time it will take the center of mass of Object X to reach point J near the bottom of the incline is t = <u>3 seconds</u>

One end of a metal rod is in contact with a thermal reservoir at 699. K, and the other end is in contact with a thermal reservoi
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

a)ΔS₁ = - 9.9 J/K

ΔS₂ = 69 J/K

b)The entropy change for the rod = 0 J/K

c)ΔS = 59.1 J/K

Explanation:

Given that

T₁ = 699 K

T₂= 101 K

Q= 6970 J

Change in entropy given as

\Delta S=\dfrac{Q}{T}

For 699 K:

\Delta S_1=\dfrac{Q}{T}

\Delta S_1=-\dfrac{6970}{699}

ΔS₁ = - 9.9 J/K  ( Negative because heat is leaving from the system)

For 101 K;

\Delta S_2=\dfrac{Q}{T}

\Delta S_2=\dfrac{6970}{101}

ΔS₂ = 69 J/K

The entropy change for the rod = 0 J/K

Entropy  change for the system

ΔS = ΔS₂  + ΔS₁

ΔS = 69 -9.9 J/K

ΔS = 59.1 J/K

In the compound CaCO3 at the end of the compound represents the number of
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

Calculate the mass of 6.022 × 1023 molecule of Calcium carbonate (CaCO3).

Solution —

Molar mass (Molecular mass in gram) of CaCO3 = 40+12+3×16 = 100 g

No. of moles of CaCO3

= No. of molecules/Avogadro constant

= 6.022 × 1023/ 6.022 × 1023

= 1 mole

Mass of CaCO3

= No. of moles × molar mass

= 1 × 100 g = 100 g.

A. Besides protons, what other particles make up an atom? Write 2 - 3 sentences describing how the electrostatic force acts betw
vodomira [7]

<u>Answer:</u>

For a. Neutrons and electrons also form an atom.

For b. The element is oxygen which is a non-metal and will form a negative ion while forming ionic bond.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • <u>For a:</u>

There are 3 subatomic particles which form an atom. These are neutrons, protons and electrons.

Neutrons carry no charge, protons carry positive charge and electrons carry negative charge. Neutrons and protons are present in nucleus and electrons revolve around the nucleus.

The energy which is present between neutrons and protons are nuclear energy and the energy which is present between electrons and protons are electrostatic energy.

  • <u>For b:</u>

In an element, number of protons is always equal to the number of electrons. The atomic number is equal to the number of protons or electrons. The element which has atomic number 8 is Oxygen.

The electronic configuration of this element is 1s^22s^22p^4

This element requires only 2 electrons to form a stable electronic configuration. An element which gains electron is considered as a non-metal and forms a negative ion because number of electrons increases.
