Answer:

a) 14.2 atm

b) 4.46 atm

c) 1.06 atm

Explanation:

For an ideal gas,

PV = nRT

P = pressure of the gas

V = volume occupied by the gas

n = number of moles of the gas

R = molar gas constant = 0.08206 L.atm/mol.K

T = temperature of the gas in Kelvin

a) For HF,

P =?, V = 2.5L, n = 1.35 moles, T = 320K

P = 1.35 × 0.08206 × 320/2.5

P = 14.2 atm

b) For NO₂

P =?, V = 4.75L, n = 0.86 moles, T = 300K

P = 0.86 × 0.08206 × 300/4.75

P = 4.46 atm

c) For CO₂

P =?, V = 5.5 × 10⁴ mL = 55L, n = 2.15 moles, T = 57°C = 330K

P = 2.15 × 0.08206 × 330/55

P = 1.06 atm

The drawing shows three identical springs hanging from the ceiling. Nothing is attached to the first spring, whereas a 4.50-N bl

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

a. 30 N / m

b. 9.0 N

Explanation:

Given that

Unstretched length of the spring, $L_o$ = 20.0cm = 0.2m

a) When the mass of 4.5N is hanging from the second spring, then extended length Is

$L_1$ = 35.0cm = 0.35m

So, the change in spring length when mass hangs is

$x = L_1 - L_o$

= (0.35 - 0.20) m

= 0.15m

As spring are identical

Let us assume that the spring constant be "k", so at equilibrium

Restoring Force on spring = Block weightage

kx = W = 4.50

$k= \frac{4.50}{x} = \frac{4.50}{0.15}$

= 30 N / m

b) Now for the third spring, stretched the length of spring is

$L_2$ = 50cm = 0.5m

So, the change in spring length is

$x'= L_2 - L_o$

= (0.5-0.20)m

= 0.30m

At equilibrium,

Restoring Force on spring = Block weightage

Now using all mentioned and computed values in above,

$W'= kx'$

= 30(0.3)

= 9.0 N

dlinn [17]

Answer:

r = 71.8⁰

Explanation:

given,

refractive index of the glass 1 = 1.70

refractive index of glass 2 = 1.58

angle of incidence = 62°

angle of refraction =?

using Snell's law

$\dfrac{sin\ i}{sin\ r} = \dfrac{n_2}{n_1}$

$\dfrac{sin\ 62^0}{sin\ r} = \dfrac{1.58}{1.70}$

1.7 ×sin 62 ^0 = 1.58× sin r

$sinr = \dfrac{1.7\times sin 62^0}{1.58}$

sin r = 0.95

r = sin⁻¹(0.95)

r = 71.8⁰

angle of refraction =r = 71.8⁰

zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

Final speed of car = 12 m/s

Explanation:

We have equation of motion v = u + at, where v is final velocity, u is initial velocity, a is acceleration and t is time.

a) A cart starts from rest and accelerates at 4.0 m/s² for 5.0 s

v = ?

u = 0 m/s

a = 4.0 m/s²

t = 5 s

v = u + at = 0 + 4 x 5 = 20 m/s

b) Then maintains that velocity for 10 s

v = ?

u = 20 m/s

a = 0 m/s²

t = 10 s

v = u + at = 20 + 0 x 10 = 20 m/s

c) Then decelerates at the rate of 2.0 m/s² for 4.0 s

v = ?

u = 20 m/s

a = -2.0 m/s²

t = 4 s

v = u + at = 20 + -2 x 4 = 12 m/s

Final speed of car = 12 m/s

Andrei [34K]

Answer:

C) rift valley

Explanation:

A rift valley is a lowland region formed by the interaction of Earth's tectonic plates. This small rift valley has a typical formation—long, narrow, and deep. It was formed by the Thingvellir rift, where the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates are tearing, or rifting, apart over a hotspot on the island of Iceland.
