The mechanical advantage of a device refers to

Chemistry
1 answer:
Savatey [412]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Mechanical advantage is a measure of the force amplification achieved by using a tool, mechanical device or machine system. The device preserves the input power and simply trades off input forces against movement to obtain a desired amplification in the output force. The model for this is the law of the lever.

While exploring a coal mine, scientists found plant fossils in the ceiling of the mine which had been preserved by an earthquake
ale4655 [162]

Answer:

11552.45 years

Explanation:

Given that:

Half life = 5730 years

t_{1/2}=\frac{\ln2}{k}

Where, k is rate constant

So,  

k=\frac{\ln2}{t_{1/2}}

k=\frac{\ln2}{5730}\ years^{-1}

The rate constant, k = 0.00012 years⁻¹

Using integrated rate law for first order kinetics as:

[A_t]=[A_0]e^{-kt}

Where,  

[A_t] is the concentration at time t

[A_0] is the initial concentration

Given that:

The rate constant, k = 0.00012 years⁻¹

Initial concentration [A_0] = 160.0 counts/min

Final concentration [A_t] = 40.0 counts/min

Time = ?

Applying in the above equation, we get that:-

40.0=160.0e^{-0.00012\times t}

e^{-0.00012t}=\frac{1}{4}

-0.00012t=\ln \left(\frac{1}{4}\right)

t=11552.45\ years

How does a scientific theory differ from a guess or an opinion?​
natima [27]

Answer:

Scientific theory differs from a guess or opinion because a scientific theory is a system of ideas that explains many related observation and is supported by a large body of evidence acquired through scientific investigation while guesses and opinions may not reliably predict an outcome, have evidence to back up the theory

Which statement best relates the strength and concentration of a base? At high enough concentrations, a weak base becomes strong
Lorico [155]

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When there are more number of hydroxide ions in a solution then there will be high concentration of OH^{-} or hydroxide ions. As a result, more will be the strength of base in that particular solution.

A base is strong when it readily dissociate into its ions in the solution. When a base is strong, then it does not matter at what concentration it is dissolved in the solution because despite of its low concentration it will remain a strong base.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options, the statement even at low concentrations, a strong base is strong best relates the strength and concentration of a base.
