How can compounds get broken down into their base elements or changed into another substance?

Physics
1 answer:
Gnoma [55]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Compounds can be broken apart in chemical reactions called decomposition reactions. For example, water can be broken down into the diatomic elements hydrogen gas and oxygen gas in a chemical reaction called electrolysis. ... Some compounds undergo thermal decomposition when they are heated.M

A 1000-kg whale swims horizontally to the right at a speed of 6.0 m/s. It suddenly collides directly with a stationary seal of m
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

Momentum after collision will be 6000 kgm/sec

Explanation:

We have given mass of the whale = 1000

Initial velocity v = 6 m/sec

It collides with other mass of 200 kg which is at stationary

Initial momentum of the whale = 1000×6 = 6000 kgm/sec

We have to find the momentum after collision

From conservation of momentum

Initial momentum = final momentum

So final momentum = 6000 kgm/sec

At a distance of 11 cm from a presumably isotropic, radioactive source, a pair of students measure 65 cps (cps = counts per seco
Alborosie

To solve the problem, it is necessary the concepts related to the definition of area in a sphere, and the proportionality of the counts per second between the two distances.

The area with a certain radius and the number of counts per second is proportional to another with a greater or lesser radius, in other words,

A_1*m=M*A_2

A_i =Area

M,m = Counts per second

Our radios are given by

r_1 = 11cm

R_2 = 20cm

m = 65cps

Therefore replacing we have that,

A_1*m=M*A_2

4\pi r_1^2*m = M * 4\pi R_2^2 M

r^2*m=MR^2

M = \frac{m*r^2}{R^2}

M = \frac{65*11^2}{20^2}

M = 19.6625cps

Therefore the number of counts expect at a distance of 20 cm is 19.66cps

A crate of 45.2-kg tools rests on a horizontal floor. You exert a gradually increasing horizontal push on it and observe that th
iragen [17]

Answer:

 μ = 0.725

Explanation:

This problem refers to Newton's second law.

       F = ma

Let's write the equations on each axis

Y Axis

      N-W = 0

     N = W

    N = mg

X axis

   F-fr = ma

With the body not started moving its acceleration is zero

  F-fr = 0

  F = fr

The friction force equation is

  fr = μ N

  fr = μ m g

Let's replace and calculate

   F = μ m g

   μ = F / mg

   μ = 321 /45.2 9.8

   μ = 0.725
