In equal-arm balances from the early twentieth century, it is sometimes observed that an aluminum sheet hangs from one of the ar

ms and passes between the poles of a magnet. This causes the oscillations of the equal-arm balance to decay rapidly. In the absence of such magnetic braking, the oscillation might continue for a very long time, so that the experimenter would have to wait to take a reading. The oscillations decay because which of the following reasons? A. Aluminum is paramagnetic. B. Currents in the aluminum sheet set up a magnetic field that opposes the oscillations. C. The aluminum sheet is attracted to the magnet.

Answer:

Currents in the aluminum sheet set up a magnetic field that opposes the oscillations

Explanation:

It has been stated in the question that the aluminum sheet hangs from one of the arms and passes between the poles of the magnet and causes the magnetic field to decay rapidly. In the absence of this magnetic breaking, the oscillation may continue for a long time.

As the aluminum hangs from one of the sheets and passes between the poles of the magnet, the magnetic flux linked to the sheet changes and emf is induced in the sheet according to Lenz law. As a result of this induced emf, eddy currents are developed on the plate. The Eddy currents opposes the magnetic force on the aluminum sheets. This opposes the oscillation of the aluminum sheet and causes it to come to rest.

II. sulfur (S) and carbon (C)

and

III. fluorine (F) and oxygen (O)

will form covalent bonds, so the answer will be:

e. II and III

Explanation:

To know is what type of bond is formed between atoms we need to look at the electronegativity difference between the atoms.

If the electronegativity difference is less than 0.4 there is a nonpolar covalent bond.

If the electronegativity difference is between 0.4 and 1.8 there is a polar covalent bond. (if is a metal involved we consider the bond to be ionic)

If the electronegativity difference is greater then 1.8 there is an ionic bond.

We have the following cases:

I. lithium (Li) and sulfur (S)

electronegativity difference = 2.5 (S) - 1 (Li) = 1.5 but because there is a metal involved the bond will be ionic

II. sulfur (S) and carbon (C)

electronegativity difference = 2.5 (S) - 2.5 (C) = 0 so the bond will be nonpolar covalent

III. fluorine (F) and oxygen (O)

electronegativity difference = 4 (F) - 3.5 (O) = 0.5 so the bond will be polar covalent bond.

The Goodyear blimp contains 5.7 x 10^6 L of helium at 25 degrees Celsius and 1 atm. What is the mass in grams of the helium insi
anygoal [31]

Answer:

1.72x10⁻⁵ g

Explanation:

To solve this problem we use the PV=nRT equation, where:

  • P = 1 atm
  • V = 5.7x10⁶ L
  • n = ?
  • R = 0.082 atm·L·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹
  • T = 25 °C ⇒ (25+273.16) = 298.16 K

And we <u>solve for n</u>:

  • 1 atm * 5.7x10⁶ L = n * 0.082 atm·L·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹ * 298.16 K
  • n = 4.29x10⁻⁶ mol

Finally we <u>convert moles of helium to grams</u>, using its <em>molar mass</em>:

  • 4.29x10⁻⁶ mol * 4 g/mol = 1.72x10⁻⁵ g

A balloon filled with helium occupies 20.0 l at 1.50 atm and 25.0◦c. How many moles of helium will there be in the balloon at st
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

  • There will be 1.23 moles of helium in the balloon at STP

Explanation:

1) <u>Initial conditions of the helium gas</u>:

  • V = 20.0 liter
  • p = 1.50 atm
  • T = 25.0 °C = 25.0 + 273.15 K = 298.15 K

2) <u>Ideal gas equation</u>:

  • pV = n RT
  • p, V, and T are given above
  • R is the Universal constant = 0.0821 atm-liter / ( K - mol)
  • n is the unknown number of moles

3) <u>Solve for n</u>:

  • n = pV / (RT) =
  • n = 1.50 atm × 20.0 liter / (0.0821 atm-liter /k -mol ×298.15K)
  • n = 1.23 mol

4) <u>At STP:</u>

  • STP stands for standard pressure and temperature.
  • The amount (number of moles) of the gas will not change because the change of pressure and temperature, so the number of moles reamain the same: 1.23 mol.

Which planet is smaller than earth's core?
WINSTONCH [101]
Hello!

 The two smallest major planets, Mercury and Mars, are both smaller than the estimated size of the Earth's core (combined inner and outer core). Mercury has a diameter of about 4879 km and Mars is about 6792 km, compared to the Earth's core which is a sphere about 6972 km in diameter. All of the dwarf planets (Pluto, Eris, Haumea, Makemake, and Ceres) are smaller in diameter than even the Earth's solid inner core (~2440 km in diameter), although Eris is almost as large and Pluto only slightly smaller than Eris. -The Earth's inner core has a thickness (radius) of about 1220 km. -The Earth's outer core has a thickness (radius) of about 2266 km.

Hope this Helps! Have A Wonderful Day! :)
