A loaded coal wagon with a total mass of 20 000 kg is pushed by a force of 300 000 N. What was the wagon’s acceleration?

Chemistry
1 answer:
AlexFokin [52]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

<h2>15 m/s²</h2>

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

a =  \frac{f}{m}  \\

f is the force

m is the mass

From the question we have

a =  \frac{300000}{20000}  =  \frac{30}{2}  \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>15 m/s²</h3>

Hope this helps you

What is the engine piston displacement in liters of an engine whose displacement is listed as 490 in^3?
marishachu [46]

Answer:

490 in^3 = 8.03 L

Explanation:

Given:

The engine displacement = 490 in^3

= 490 in³

To determine the engine piston displacement in liters L;

(NOTE: Both in^3 (in³) and L are units of volume). Hence, to find the engine piston displacement in liters (L), we will convert in^3 to liters (L)

First, we will convert in³ to cm³

Since 1 in = 2.54 cm

∴ 1 in³ = 16.387 cm³

If 1 in³ = 16.387 cm³

Then 490 in³ =  (490 in³ × 16.387 cm³) / 1 in³ = 8029.63 cm³

∴ 490 in³ = 8029.63 cm³

Now will convert cm³ to dm³

(NOTE: 1 L = 1 dm³)

1 cm = 1 × 10⁻² m = 1 × 10⁻¹ dm

∴ 1 cm³ = 1 × 10⁻⁶ m³ = 1 × 10⁻³ dm³

If 1 cm³ = 1 × 10⁻³ dm³

Then, 8029.63 cm³ = (8029.63 cm³ × 1 × 10⁻³ dm³) / 1 cm³ = 8.02963 dm³

≅ 8.03 dm³

∴ 8029.63 cm³ = 8.03 dm³

Hence, 490 in³ = 8029.63 cm³ = 8.03 dm³

Since 1L = 1 dm³

∴ 8.03 dm³ = 8.03 L

Hence, 490 in³ = 8.03 L

In your discussion consider a SN2 reaction mechanism concept. Propose a modification of experimental procedure that would improv
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

Here's what I get  

Explanation:

You may have done a Williamson synthesis of guaifenesin by reacting guaiacol with 3-chloropropane-1,2-diol.

A. Mechanism

Step 1

NaOH converts guaiacol into a phenoxide ion.

Step 2

The phenoxide acts as the nucleophile in an SN2 reaction to displace the Cl from the alkyl halide.

B. Improve the yield

You probably carried out the reaction in ethanol solution — a polar protic solvent.

You might try doing the reaction in a polar aprotic solvent— perhaps DMSO.

A polar aprotic solvent does not hydrogen bond to nucleophiles, so they become stronger.

C. Another method of ether synthesis —dehydration of alcohols

Sulfuric acid catalyzes the conversion of primary alcohols to ethers.

This is also a nucleophilic displacement reaction.

Protonation of the OH converts it into a better leaving group.

Attack by a second molecule of alcohol forms the protonated ether.

A molecule of water then removes the proton.

List the subshells that hold the 25 electrons in a<br> manganese atom in order of increasing energy
jonny [76]

Answer:

1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d5

Explanation:

According to the Aufbau principle, electrons are filled in orbitals in order of increasing energy. The energy of orbitals in the electronic configuration of manganese increases from left to right, hence 3d orbital is much greater in energy than a 3p orbital.

The arrangement of orbitals in order of increasing energy is shown in the answer above.
