Answer: your answer

Explanation: The Moon follows generally the same path, but with some important differences. The Moon's orbit is tilted 5.1° relative to the ecliptic. So, the Moon can appear anywhere in a band extending 5.1° north (above) and south (below) of the ecliptic. Each month, the Moon twice crosses the ecliptic on opposite sides of Earth

An ant carries a morsel of food 4.26 meters along a straight path to his nest. he then turns around and follows the path back to

SVEN [57.7K]

Answer: 0.00 meters

Solution:

Step 1: Define displacement DISPLACEMENT = a vector quantity that describes "linear or angular distance in a given direction between a body or point and a reference position."

Step 2: Understand the question

Assumption 1: Assume that when the ant moves 4.25 meters from its origin to its nest, it is moving in a positive direction (on a graph you would draw a line along the x-axis from its origin to +4.25).

Assumption 2: Assume that when the ant "turns around...back to the source of food", it is moving back in the negative direction (towards the origin).

Step 3: Analyze the question

What is the distance between where the ant originally started and where it ended its journey?

The ant started and ended its journey in the same place.

While it traveled a distance of 8.52 meters (2 * 4.26 = 8.52), it's displacement is actually 0.00 meters (4.26 + (-4.26) = 0.00)

Therefore, the answer is 0.00 meters

What is the difference between atomic mass, relative atomic mass and average atomic mass

vesna_86 [32]

$\bold{\huge{\underline{\purple{ Answer }}}}$

Difference between Atomic mass, relative atomic mass and average atomic mass :-

<h3>Atomic Mass :-</h3>

Atomic mass is the mass of neutrons and protons present in the nucleus of an atom .
It is always calculated for a single element and having direct value
For isotopes also, the atomic mass is calculated separately . Example :- Carbon 12 , carbon 13 and carbon 14 have different atomic mass. 
The SI unit of Atomic mass is " u" and "amu"

<h3>Relative Atomic mass :-</h3>

Relative atomic mass is mean mass of the atoms of an element which is compared to the 1/12th mass of carbon - 12 .
Carbon - 12 is taken as a relative when we calculate the relative atomic mass of any element
For calculating relative atomic mass, we need to know the masses, percentage and abundance of all types of elements
Relative atomic mass is a dimension less quantity

<h3>Average Atomic Mass :-</h3>

Average atomic mass is the average mass of an atoms of a particular element by considering it's isotopes
While we calculate average atomic mass is a standardized number. Whereas, Average atomic mass sometimes varies geologically .
It also includes percentage, abundance and masses of given element .
In average atomic mass, We do not compare mean value with the 1/12 mass of carbon - 12
The unit of Average atomic mass is "Amu" or " u " .

A sample of nitrogen gas is at a temperature of 50 c and a pressure of 2 atm. If the volume of the sample remains constant and t

Lilit [14]

Answer:

The new temperature of the nitrogen gas is 516.8 K or 243.8 C.

Explanation:

Gay-Lussac's law indicates that, as long as the volume of the container containing the gas is constant, as the temperature increases, the gas molecules move faster. Then the number of collisions with the walls increases, that is, the pressure increases. That is, the pressure of the gas is directly proportional to its temperature.

Gay-Lussac's law can be expressed mathematically as follows:

$\frac{P}{T} =k$

Where P = pressure, T = temperature, K = Constant

You want to study two different states, an initial state and a final state. You have a gas that is at a pressure P1 and at a temperature T1 at the beginning of the experiment. By varying the temperature to a new value T2, then the pressure will change to P2, and the following will be fulfilled:

$\frac{P1}{T1} =\frac{P2}{T2}$

In this case:

P1= 2 atm
T1= 50 C= 323 K (being 0 C= 273 K)
P2= 3.2 atm
T2= ?

Replacing:

$\frac{2 atm}{323 K} =\frac{3.2 atm}{T2}$

Solving:

$T2*\frac{2 atm}{323 K} =3.2 atm$

$T2=3.2 atm*\frac{323 K}{2 atm}$

T2= 516.8 K= 243.8 C

The new temperature of the nitrogen gas is 516.8 K or 243.8 C.
