Naturally occurring element x exists in three isotopic forms: x-28 (27.977 amu, 92.23% abundance), x-29 (28.976 amu, 4.67% abund

ance), and x-30 (29.974 amu, 3.10% abundance). calculate the atomic weight of x.

To solve for the weighted average atomic weight of X, all we have to do is to calculate for the contribution of each isotope. The contribution of each isotope on the atomic weight of x is calculated by multiplying their respective atomic weights with the abundance, therefore:

X – 28 = 27.977 amu * (92.23 / 100)

X – 28 = 25.803 amu

 

X – 29 = 28.976 amu * (4.67 / 100)

X – 29 = 1.353 amu

 

X – 30 = 29.974 amu * (3.10 / 100)

X – 30 = 0.929 amu

 

Hence:

X = X – 28 + X – 29 + X – 30

X = 25.803 amu + 1.353 amu + 0.929 amu

<span>X = 28.085 amu</span>

A car of mass 500kg travelling at 60m/s has it speed reduced to 40m/s by a constant breaking force over a distance of 200m. find
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

Ek1 = 900000 [J]

Ek1 = 400000 [J]

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem we must remember that kinetic energy is defined as the product of mass by velocity squared by a medium. Therefore using the following equation we have:

E_{k1}=\frac{1}{2}*m*v1^{2}

where:

m = mass = 500 [kg]

v1 = 60 [m/s]

So we have:

Ek1 = 0.5*500*(60^2)

Ek1 = 900000 [J]

and:

Ek2 = 0.5*500*(40^2)

Ek2 = 400000 [J]

A bystander observes the musicians heading toward each other. When musician #1 is 100 m away, the intensity is 1.24 x 10-8 W/m^2
777dan777 [17]

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance 1, r = 100 m

Intensity, I_1=1.24\times 10^{-8}\ W/m^2

If distance 2, r' = 25 m

We need to find the intensity and the intensity level at 25 meters. Intensity and a distance r is given by :

I=\dfrac{P}{4\pi r^2}.........(1)

Let I' is the intensity at r'. So,

I'=\dfrac{P}{4\pi r'^2}............(2)

From equation (1) and (2) :

I'=\dfrac{Ir}{r'^2}

I'=\dfrac{1.24\times 10^{-8}\times 100}{25^2}

I'=1.98\times 10^{-9}\ W/m^2

Intensity level is given by :

dB=10\ log(\dfrac{I'}{I_o}), I_o=10^{-12}\ W/m^2

dB=10\ log(\dfrac{1.98\times 10^{-9}}{10^{-12}})

dB = 32.96 dB

Hence, this is the required solution.
