This question seems to be an essay question from experiment. Different solution of oxidizing agent will have different strength. Sulfuric acid or H2SO4 is weaker oxidizing agent when compared to nitric acid (HNO3). In this case, if you subtitute the H2SO4 you wouldn't be able to get the same result for the experiment.
Answer:
a. Work
Explanation:
If you apply a force over a given distance - you have done work. Work = Change in Energy. If an object's kinetic energy or gravitational potential energy changes, then work is done. The force can act in the same direction of motion.
The differences in the properties of diamond and graphite is as a result of how their particles are arranged in space. This space arrangement leads to distinct crystal structures for the two compounds. In diamond, the carbon atoms are arranged in tetrahedral shape while in graphite the carbon atoms arrayed in planes.
Hope this helps :)
Remember the formula as per the second Law of Newton: F = m*a
And also remember that the weight is the force with which the mass is attracted by the planet (or satellite in the case of the moon).
With that information you can answer the questions:
a) Weight = F = m*a
m = 175 slugs = 175 lbm
i) Earth
a = 32.17 ft/s^2
Weight on Earth = 175 lbm * 32.17 ft / s^2 = 5,629.75 poundal
ii) Moon
a = [1/6] 32.17 ft/s^2
Weight on the Moon = [1/6]*5,629.75 poundal = 938.29 poundal
b) Force = 355 poundal
m = 25.0 slug
a in m/s^2 = ?
First calculate the force in ft/s^2
F = m*a => a = F/m = 355 poundal / 25.0 slug = 14.2 ft/s^2
Conversion:
14.2 ft / s^2 * [ 0.3048 m/ft] = 4.32816 m/s^2
Answer: 4.33 m/s^2
