Answer:

<h3>a stationary electric charge, typically produced by friction, which causes sparks or crackling or the attraction of dust or hair.Static electricity has several uses, also called applications, in the real world. One main use is in printers and photocopiers where static electric charges attract the ink, or toner, to the paper. Other uses include paint sprayers, air filters, and dust removal. Static electricity can also cause damage.Static electricity is an imbalance of electric charges within or on the surface of a material. The charge remains until it is able to move away by means of an electric current or electrical discharge.</h3>

olga2289 [7]

The period of the wave is the reciprocal of its frequency.

1 / (5 per second) = 0.2 second .

The wavelength is irrelevant to the period. But since you
gave it to us, we can also calculate the speed of the wave.

Wave speed = (frequency) x (wavelength)

= (5 per second) x (1cm) = 5 cm per second

Consider a container of oxygen gas at a temperature of 23°C that is 1.00 m tall. Compare the gravitational potential energy of a

Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

Yes, it is reasonable to neglect it.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, a single molecule of oxygen weights 32 g (diatomic oxygen) thus, the mass of kilograms is (consider Avogadro's number):

$m=1molec*\frac{1mol}{6.022x10^{23}molec} *\frac{32g}{1mol}*\frac{1kg}{1000g}=5.31x10^{-26}kg$

After that, we compute the potential energy 1.00 m above the reference point:

$U=mhg=5.31x10^{-26}kg*1.00m*9.8\frac{m}{s^2}=5.2x10^{-25}J$

Then, we compute the average kinetic energy at the specified temperature:

$K=\frac{3}{2}\frac{R}{Na}T$

Whereas $N_A$ stands for the Avogadro's number for which we have:

$K=\frac{3}{2} \frac{8.314\frac{J}{mol*K}}{6.022x10^{23}/mol}*(23+273)K\\ \\K=6.13x10^{-21}J$

In such a way, since the average kinetic energy energy is about 12000 times higher than the potential energy, it turns out reasonable to neglect the potential energy.

Regards.

Need help finding the average speed.

Snowcat [4.5K]

Explanation:

To find the average of these numbers, we just have to add the three numbers together and divide by 3.

2.07 + 0. 74 + 1.33 = 4.14. 4.14 / 3 = 1.38
1.09 + 1.40 + 0.31 = 2.8. 2.8 / 3 ≈ 9.3333333/ 9 1/3
0.95 + 1.61 + 0.56 = 3.12 / 3 = 1.04
0.81 + 1.89 + 1.08 = 3.78 / 3 = 1.26
