The answer option which is an example of the law of multiple proportions is: B) Two different compounds formed from carbon and oxygen have the following mass ratios: 1.33 g O: 1 g C and 2.66 g O: 1 g C.

The Law of Multiple Proportions is also referred to as Dalton's Law and it states that when two chemical elements combine to form more than one chemical compound, the masses (weights) of one chemical element that combine with a fixed mass (weight) of the other chemical element will always be in a ratio of small whole numbers.

According to the Law of Multiple Proportions, when two chemical elements combine to form two different chemical compound, the masses (weights) of one chemical element that combine with 1 gram of the other chemical element can be expressed as a ratio of small whole numbers.

For example, carbon and oxygen react to form either carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide.

<u>Carbon monoxide (CO):</u>

12 grams of C = 16 grams of O.

1 gram of C = 1.33 gram of O.

<u>Carbon dioxide (</u>CO_2<u>):</u>

12 gram of C = 32 grams of O.

1 gram of C = 2.66 gram of O.

Ratio of oxygen (O) = 16:32 = 1:2 (Law of Multiple Proportions).

Your question is lacking the necessary answer options, so I will be adding them here:

A. A sample of chlorine is found to contain three times as much Cl-35 as Cl-37.

B. Two different compounds formed from carbon and oxygen have the following mass ratios: 1.33 g O: 1 g C and 2.66 g O: 1 g C.

C. Two different samples of table salt are found to have the same ratio of sodium to chlorine.

D. The atomic mass of bromine is found to be 79.90 amu.

E. Nitrogen dioxide always has a mass ratio of 2.28 g O: 1 g N.

To demonstrate the tremendous acceleration of a top fuel dragracer, you attempt to run your car into the back of a dragster that
noname [10]

Answer:

a. 2v₀/a   b. 2v₀/a  

Explanation:

a. Since you are moving with a constant velocity v₀, the distance, s you cover in time = t max is s = v₀t.

Since the dragster starts from rest with an acceleration, a, using

s' = ut + 1/2at² where u = 0 and s' = distance moved by dragster

s' = 0t + 1/2at²

s' = 1/2at²

Since the distance moved by me and the dragster must be the same,

s = s'

v₀t. =  1/2at²

v₀t. - 1/2at² = 0

t(v₀ - 1/2at) = 0

t= 0 or v₀ - 1/2at = 0

t= 0 or v₀ = 1/2at

t= 0 or t = 2v₀/a  

So the maximum time tmax = 2v₀/a

b. Since the distance covered by me to meet the dragster is s = v₀t in time, t = tmax which is also my distance from the dragster when it started. So, my distance from the dragster when it started is s =  v₀(2v₀/a)

= 2v₀/a
