Answer:

One explanation may be that as a group, teenagers react more impulsively to threatening situations than do children or adults, likely because their brains have to work harder to rein in their behavior, a research team reported here yesterday at the Society for Neuroscience meeting

A certain first-order reaction is 58% complete in 95 s. What are the values of the rate constant and the half-life for this proc

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

$0.005734 s^{-1}$ and 20.86 seconds are the values of the rate constant and the half-life for this process respectively..

Explanation:

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

$a_o=a\times e^{-kt}$

where,

k = rate constant

t = age of sample

$a_o$ = let initial amount of the reactant

a = amount left after decay process

We have :

$a_o=x$

$a=58\%\times x=0.58x$

t = 95 s

$0.58x=x\times e^{-k\times 95 s}$

$\k= 0.005734 s^{-1}$

Half life is given by for first order kinetics::

$t_{1/2}=\frac{0.693}{k}$

$=\frac{0.693}{0.005734 s^{-1}}=120.86 s$

$0.005734 s^{-1}$ and 20.86 seconds are the values of the rate constant and the half-life for this process respectively..

B)A man walks 95 km, East, then 55 km, north. Calculate his RESULTANT

Varvara68 [4.7K]

The resultant displacement of the man is 109.77 km in the direction N60°E.

<h3>Displacement</h3>

Displacement is the distance travelled in a specified direction.

To calculate displacement, the straight line from starting point to end point of travel is taken and calculated.

<h3>Resultant displacement of the man </h3>

In the example above, a man walks 95 km, East, then 55 km, north.

The two distances form a right-angled triangle with two sides 95 and 55 units. The hypotenuse gives the resultant displacement, D.

Using Pythagoras rule:

D^2 = 95^2 + 55^2

D^2 = 12050

D = 109.77

Thus, the resultant displacement is 109.77 km

To calculate the direction:

Let the direction be y

y + x = 90°

tan x = 55/95

tanx x = 0.578

x = 30°

Then, y = 90 - 30

y = 60°

Therefore, the resultant displacement of the man is 109.77 km in the direction N60°E.

A source at rest emits light of wavelength 500 nm. When it is moving at 0.90c toward an observer, the observer detects light of

Vesna [10]

Answer:

The observer detects light of wavelength is 115 nm.

(b) is correct option

Explanation:

Given that,

Wavelength of source = 500 nm

Velocity = 0.90 c

We need to calculate the wavelength of observer

Using Doppler effect

$\lambda_{o}=\sqrt{\dfrac{1-\beta}{1+\beta}}\lambda_{s}$

Where, $\beta=\dfrac{c}{v}$

$\lambda_{o}=\sqrt{\dfrac{c-0.90c}{c+0.90c}}\times500\times10^{-9}$

$\lambda_{o}=115\ nm$

Hence, The observer detects light of wavelength is 115 nm.
