How many grams of oxygen (O2), x, are needed to react with the 700 g of iron to produce 1000 g of iron (III) oxide, Fe2O3?

Murljashka [212]

As we know that, molecular mass of ferric oxide, Fe2O3, is 159.69 grams.
Out of which, iron contributes 111.69 g (2 X 55.845 g) and oxygen contributes
48 g (3 X 16 g).
Each gram of iron (III) oxide contains 111.69/159.69 g of iron and 48/159.69
g of oxygen.
To produce 1000 g iron (III) oxide we need,
Iron = 111.69*1000/159.69 = 699.42 g
Oxygen = 48*1000/159.69 = 300.58 g

A double-slit arrangement produces interference fringes for sodium light (λ = 589 nm) that are 0.48° apart. What is the angular

larisa [96]

Answer:

0.38°

Explanation:

$\theta$ = Angle

m = Number

d = Distance

n = Refractive index of liquid = 1.25

a denotes air

l denotes liquid

In the case of double split interferance we have the relation

$m\lambda=dsin\theta$

For air

$m\lambda_a=dsin\theta_a$

For liquid

$m\lambda_l=dsin\theta_l$

Dividing the two equations

$\frac{m\lambda_a}{m\lambda_l}=\frac{dsin\theta_a}{dsin\theta_l}\\\Rightarrow \frac{\lambda_a}{\lambda_l}=\frac{sin\theta_a}{sin\theta_l}$

Wavelength ratio = $n$

$n=\frac{sin\theta_a}{sin\theta_l}\\\Rightarrow \frac{sin0.48}{1.25}=sin\theta_l\\\Rightarrow \theta_l=sin^{-1}\frac{sin0.48}{1.25}\\\Rightarrow \theta_l=0.38^{\circ}$

The angular separation is 0.38°

the most appropriate answer is A !! our mind automatically connects everything and thus make a story that we don't even familiar with in actual !!

Piano tuners tune pianos by listening to the beats between the harmonics of two different strings. When properly tuned, the note

Sophie [7]

(a) 2 Hz

The frequency of the nth-harmonic is given by

$f_n = n f_1$

where

$f_1$ is the fundamental frequency

Therefore, the frequency of the third harmonic of the A ( $f_1 = 440 Hz$ ) is

$f_3 = 3 \cdot f_1 = 3 \cdot 440 Hz =1320 Hz$

while the frequency of the second harmonic of the E ( $f_1 = 659 Hz$ ) is

$f_2 = 2 \cdot f_1 = 2 \cdot 659 Hz =1318 Hz$

So the frequency difference is

$\Delta f = 1320 Hz - 1318 Hz = 2 Hz$

(b) 2 Hz

The beat frequency between two harmonics of different frequencies f, f' is given by

$f_B = |f'-f|$

In this case, when the strings are properly tuned, we have

- Frequency of the 3rd harmonic of A-note: 1320 Hz

- Frequency of the 2nd harmonic of E-note: 1318 Hz

So, the beat frequency should be (if the strings are properly tuned)

$f_B = |1320 Hz - 1318 Hz|=2 Hz$

(c) 1324 Hz

The fundamental frequency on a string is proportional to the square root of the tension in the string:

$f_1 \propto \sqrt{T}$

this means that by tightening the string (increasing the tension), will increase the fundamental frequency also*, and therefore will increase also the frequency of the 2nd harmonic.

In this situation, the beat frequency is 4 Hz (four beats per second):

$f_B = 4 Hz$

And since the beat frequency is equal to the absolute value of the difference between the 3rd harmonic of the A-note and the 2nd harmonic of the E-note,

$f_B = |f_3-f_2|$

and $f_3 = 1320 Hz$ , we have two possible solutions for $f_2$ :

$f_2 = f_3 - f_B = 1320 Hz - 4 Hz = 1316 Hz\\f_2 = f_3 + f_B = 1320 Hz + 4 Hz = 1324 Hz$

However, we said that increasing the tension will increase also the frequency of the harmonics (*), therefore the correct frequency in this case will be

1324 Hz
