Answer: the angle between the resultant vector and the vector of the 18 pound is 28°

Explanation:

given that data in the question; as its interpreted in the diagram below;

from the cosine rule, we know that;

a² = b² + c² - 2bc  

so

(13)² = (6)² + (18)² - (2 × 6 × 18 ) cos∅

169 = 36 + 324 - 216cos∅

169 = 360 - 216cos∅

216cos∅ = 360 - 169

216cos∅ = 191

cos∅ = 0.8842

∅ = cos⁻¹ ( 0.8842 )

∅ = 27.8° ≈ 28°  {nearest whole number}

Therefore the angle between the resultant vector and the vector of the 18 pound is 28°

A 5.0-kg bar of lead is placed inside a 12-L chamber filled with helium gas. The temperature of the lead and helium is the same.
Pavlova-9 [17]

As the temperature of the lead and helium is the same. Thus the average kinetic energy is also the same for lead and helium.

Reason:

It is given that a 5.0-kg bar of lead is placed inside a 12-L chamber filled with helium gas. The temperature of the lead and helium is the same. It is required to compare the average kinetic energy of the lead atoms and helium atoms.

The average kinetic energy is calculated as, K=\frac{3}{2} \frac{R}{N} T.

Here K is the average kinetic energy,  R is the gas constant, N is the Avogadro's number, and T is the temperature.

As the temperature is the same for both lead and helium. As a result, the average kinetic energy is also the same for lead and helium.

What is escape velocity ​
DanielleElmas [232]
Escape velocity is the speed that an object needs to be traveling to break free of a planet or moon's gravity well and leave it without further propulsion. For example, a spacecraft leaving the surface of Earth needs to be going 7 miles per second, or nearly 25,000 miles per hour to leave without falling back to the surface or falling into orbit.
