Answer:

   x_total = 23250 m

Explanation:

This is a uniform motion exercise, the equation that describes the motion is

         v = x / t

the position is

        x = v t

let's reduce the magnitude to the SI system

        v = 85 km / h (1000 m / 1km) (1h / 3600 s) = 23.61 m / s

         t = 0.25 h (3600 s / 1h) = 900 s

let's calculate

         x₁ = v t₁

         x₁ = 23.61   900

         x₁ = 21250 m

The distance from the origin is

         x_total = x_station + x₁

         x_total = 2000 + 21250

         x_total = 23250 m

If isomerization requires breaking the pi bond, what minimum energy is required for isomerization in j/mol?
aliina [53]
<span>The minimum energy required for isomerization is 267 000 J/mol 
</span>

The isomerization of cis-but-2-ene to trans-but-2-ene requires breaking of the π bond.

The bond energy of a C-C σ bond is 347 kJ/mol.

The bond energy of a C=C double bond (σ + π) is 614 kJ/mol.

So the bond energy of a π bond is (614 – 347) kJ/mol = 267 kJ/mol =
267 000 J/mol.

In an experiment to measure the wavelength of light using a double slit, it is found that the fringes are too close together to
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

halve the slit separation

Explanation:

As we know that

In YDS experiment, the equation of fringe width is as follows

\beta = \frac{\lambda D}{d}

where,

D denotes the separation in the middle of screen and slits

d denotes the distance in the middle of two slits

And to increase the Δx we have to decrease the d i.e, the distance between the two slits

Hence, the first option is correct

You are provided with three polarizers with filters making angles of (A) 90 ​∘ ​​ , (B) 180 ​∘ ​​ and (C) −45 ​∘ ​​ with respect
irinina [24]

Answer:

Order of maximum transmission of the polarizer is A, C and B.

Solution:

As per the question:

For the first polarizer, the angle is quite insignificant:

(A) 90^{\circ}:

The light intensity after passing through the first polarizer is I_{o} and this intensity does not depend on the angle of the polarizer.

Consider 90^{\circ} with the vertical, the intensity is given by:

I = I_{o}cos^{2}90^{\circ}

I = I_{o}cos(2(45^{\circ})) = I_{o}(\frac{1+cos90^{\circ})}{2} = \frac{I_{o}}{2}

(B) 180^{\circ}:

Suppose the second polarizer is  45^{\circ} with the vertical.

Now, intensity through the second polarizer:

I' = Icos^{2}(\theta_{2} - \theta_{1}) = \frac{I_{o}}{2}cos^{2}(- 45 - 90)

I' =  \frac{I_{o}}{2}cos^{2}135^{\circ} = \frac{I_{o}}{4}

Now, if we consider the second polarizer to be 180^{\circ},

I' = \frac{I_{o}}{2}cos^{2}180^{\circ} = \frac{I_{o}}{2}cos^{2}(180^{\circ} - 90^{\circ}) = 0

(C) - 45^{\circ}:

Now,

Intensity through the third polarizer, if it is 180^{\circ} with the vertical:

I' = Icos^{2}(\theta_{2} - \theta_{1}) = \frac{I_{o}}{2}cos^{2}(180 - (- 45))

I' = \frac{I_{o}}{8}

Nikolas had an idea that he could use the compressed carbon dioxide in a fire extinguisher to propel him on his skateboard.
Vikentia [17]
The Newton’s law Nikolas would use to come up with this idea is the <span>Third law that states:

</span><span>When one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the first body.
</span>
So, in this case, let's name the first Body A which is the skateboard and the second body B which is <span>the compressed carbon dioxide in a fire extinguisher. Then, as shown in the figure below, according to the Third law:
