Answer:

(B) 13.9 m

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 5.2 m/s

y₀ = 12.5 m

(A) The acceleration in free fall is -9.8 m/s².

(B) At maximum height, v = 0 m/s.

v² = v₀² + 2aΔy

(0 m/s)² = (5.2 m/s)² + 2 (-9.8 m/s²) (y − 12.5 m)

y = 13.9 m

v = at + v₀

-5.2 m/s = (-9.8 m/s²) t + 5.2 m/s

t = 1.06 s

Suppose the electrons and protons in 1g of hydrogen could be separated and placed on the earth and the moon, respectively. Compa

MAXImum [283]

Answer:

The gravitational force is 3.509*10^17 times larger than the electrostatic force.

Explanation:

The Newton's law of universal gravitation and Coulombs law are:

$F_{N}=G m_{1}m_{2}/r^{2}\\F_{C}=k q_{1}q_{2}/r^{2}$

Where:

G= 6.674×10^−11 N · (m/kg)2

k = 8.987×10^9 N·m2/C2

We can obtain the ratio of these forces dividing them:

$\frac{F_{N}}{F_{C}}=\frac{Gm_{1}m_{2}}{kq_{1}q_{2}}=0.742\times10^{-20}\frac{C^{2}}{kg^{2}}\frac{m_{1}m_{2}}{q_{1}q_{2}}$ --- (1)

The mass of the moon is 7.347 × 10^22 kilograms

The mass of the earth is 5.972 × 10^24 kg

And q1=q2=Na*e=(6.022*10^23)*(1.6*10^-19)C=9.635*10^4 C

Replacing these values in eq1:

$\frac{F_{N}}{F_{C}}}}=0.742\times10^{-20}\frac{C^{2}}{kg^{2}}\frac{7.347\times5.972\times10^{46}kg^{2}}{(9.635\times10^{4})^{2}}$

Therefore

$\frac{F_{N}}{F_{C}}}}=3.509\times10^{17}$

This means that the gravitational force is 3.509*10^17 times larger than the electrostatic force, when comparing the earth-moon gravitational field vs 1mol electrons - 1mol protons electrostatic field

Determine the normal boiling point of a substance whose vapor pressure is 55.1 mm hg at 35°c and has a δhvap of 32 .1 kj/mol. de

atroni [7]

Classius claperyon equation
In (P2/ P2) = ΔHvap/R) × (1/T2-1/T1)
T2 occurs at normal boiling when vapor pressure P2 = 1 atm.
P1 = 55.1 mmHg, P2 = 1 atm = 760mmHg
T1 = 35°c = 308.15k, T2 =
ΔHvap = 32.1kJ/mol = 32100 J/mol
In (760/55.1) = (-32100/ 8.314) × ( 1/T2 - 1/308.15)
The normal boiling point T2 = 390k = 117°c
