Riders on a ferris wheel move in a circle with a speed of 4.0 m/s. As they go around, they

1 answer:

6 0

Answer: D = 16m

Explanation: given values: a = 2 m/s2, v = 4 m/s
In this case we have to determine the diameter of the Ferris wheel.
Diameter of circle is given as: D = 2.r.
First we have to find radius of wheel. The best way to find that is using the centripetal acceleration equation: a = v2/r
Plug in values in above equation to find radius: 2 m/s2 = (4 m/s)2/r 2 m/s2 = (16 m2/s2)/r r = (16 m2/s2)/2 m/s2
r = 8.0m
Diameter of Ferris wheel is:
D = 2.r.
D = 2.8m
D = 16m

Liquid water can be separated into hydrogen gas and oxygen gas through electrolysis. 1 mole of hydrogen gas and 0.5 moles of

den301095 [7]

The temperature of the oxygen gas is 243.75 K.

Using ideal gas law to explain the answer, the absolute temperature of the gas will decrease if the number of moles of the gas increases and it will increase if the volume and/or pressure of the gas increases.

The reaction of the given elements;

$H_2 \ + \ \frac{1}{2} O_2 \ --->\ \ H_2O$

volume of the collected oxygen gas, V = 10 L

pressure of the gas, P = 1 atm

number of moles of the gas, n = 0.5

Using ideal law the temperature of the oxygen gas is calculated as follows;

$PV = nRT\\\\T = \frac{PV}{nR} \\\\where;\\R \ is \ the \ ideal \ gas \ constant = 0.08205 \ L.atm/K.mol\\\\T = \frac{1 \times 10 }{0.5 \times 0.08205} \\\\T = 243.75 \ K$

Thus, the temperature of the gas is 243.75 K.

Using ideal gas law to explain the answer. The absolute temperature of the oxygen gas is directly proportional to the product of its pressure and volume and inversely proportional to its number of moles. That is the absolute temperature of the gas will decrease if the number of moles of the gas increases and it will increase if the volume and/or pressure increases.

If a car with mass 750 kg is lifted to a height of 2.3 m how much gravitational potential energy is added to the car

Jlenok [28]

I found: 16,905J

Explanation:

The Gravitational Potential Energy will depend on the work done against gravity (weight, W=mg) to lift it at height h or:

U = mgh =750 * 9.8 *2.3 =16,905J
