Can someone explain E=mc2 In FULL detail please

1 answer:

8 0

Einstein's Big Idea homepage. E = mc2. It's the world's most famous equation, but what does it really mean? "Energy equals mass times the speed of light squared." On the most basic level, the equation says that energy and mass (matter) are interchangeable; they are different forms of the same thing.

For the equilibrium reaction N2O4(g) ⇀↽ 2 NO2(g) taking place inside a sealed container fitted with a piston, predict the effect

Butoxors [25]

Answer:

4. The equilibrium will shift to favor formation of NO2(g)

Explanation:

According to La Chatalier's Principle which states that when an equilibrium system undergoes changes either in temperature, volume or concentration; there will be in a change in the system in order to reach equilibrium.

From the above equation,

N2O4(g) ⇀↽ 2 NO2(g)

From the above reaction, there are 2 moles of gaseous product on the left and 1 mole of gaseous reactant.

Therefore, there are more moles of gases in the left hand side than the right hand side.

Because a decrease in volume favors the direction that produces fewer moles, an increase in volume will therefore shift this system towards the side with more moles of gases that is, more products are formed hence, this system will shift to right and produce more moles of products i.e more NO2(g) formed.

A baseball is hit at ground level. The ball reaches its maximum height above ground level 3.0 s after being hit. Then 2.5 s afte

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

Part a)

$H = 44.1 m$

Part b)

$y = 13.48 m$

Part c)

$d = 8.86 m$

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that ball will reach at maximum height at

t = 3 s

now we will have

$t = \frac{v sin\theta}{g}$

now we have

$3 = \frac{vsin\theta}{9.8}$

$v sin\theta = 29.4 m/s$

Now maximum height above ground is given as

$H = \frac{v^2sin^2\theta}{2g}$

$H = \frac{29.4^2}{2(9.8)}$

$H = 44.1 m$

Part b)

Height of the fence is given as

$y = (vsin\theta) t - \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

$y = (29.4)(5.5) - \frac{1}{2}(9.8)(5.5^2)$

$y = 13.48 m$

Part c)

As we know that its horizontal distance moved by the ball in 5.5 s is given as

$x = v_x t$

$97.5 = v_x (5.5)$

$v_x = 17.72 m/s$

now total time of flight is given as

$T = 3 + 3 = 6 s$

so range is given as

$R = v_x T$

$R = (17.72)(6)$

$R = 106.4 m$

so the distance from the fence is given as

$d = 106.4 - 97.5$

$d = 8.86 m$

Andy is waiting at the signal. As soon as the light turns green, he accelerates his car at a uniform rate of 8.00 meters/second2

lbvjy [14]

-- The car starts from rest, and goes 8 m/s faster every second.

-- After 30 seconds, it's going (30 x 8) = 240 m/s.

-- Its average speed during that 30 sec is (1/2) (0 + 240) = 120 m/s

-- Distance covered in 30 sec at an average speed of 120 m/s

   = <span> 3,600 meters .</span>
___________________________________

The formula that has all of this in it is the formula for
distance covered when accelerating from rest:

     Distance = (1/2) · (acceleration) · (time)²

   = (1/2) · (8 m/s²)    · (30 sec)²

   = (4 m/s²) · (900 sec²)

   =     3600 meters.

_________________________________

When you translate these numbers into units for which
we have an intuitive feeling, you find that this problem is
quite bogus, but entertaining nonetheless.

When the light turns green, Andy mashes the pedal to the metal
and covers almost 2.25 miles in 30 seconds.

How does he do that ?

By accelerating at 8 m/s². That's about 0.82 G !

He does zero to 60 mph in 3.4 seconds, and at the end
of the 30 seconds, he's moving at 534 mph !

He doesn't need to worry about getting a speeding ticket.
Police cars and helicopters can't go that fast, and his local
police department doesn't have a jet fighter plane to chase
cars with.
