Answer: The force on the firefly
The unfortunate firefly hitting the bus does not change the velocity of the bus very much. Technically there is a change, but it's so very small and miniscule that it barely registers. To any casual observer not paying very close attention, they don't notice anything at all. So effectively the force on the firefly is a lot greater since the firefly got the worst end of the deal.
So in short, we look at the velocity of each object and see which velocity changed the most. In this case, the firefly's velocity changed from whatever speed it was flying to 0 when it stops flying all together. That's why the force is greater on the bug.
Answer:
0.0187 M
Explanation:
Step 1: Write the balanced neutralization reaction
NaOH + HCl ⇒ NaCl + H₂O
Step 2: Calculate the reacting moles of HCl
18.7 mL of 0.01500 M HCl react.
0.0187 L × 0.01500 mol/L = 2.81 × 10⁻⁴ mol
Step 3: Calculate the reacting moles of NaOH
The molar ratio of HCl to NaOH is 1:1. The reacting moles of NaOH are 1/1 × 2.81 × 10⁻⁴ mol = 2.81 × 10⁻⁴ mol.
Step 4: Calculate the molarity of NaOH
2.81 × 10⁻⁴ moles are in 15.00 mL of NaOH.
[NaOH] = 2.81 × 10⁻⁴ mol/0.01500 L = 0.0187 M
