Jane and Jack have a bicycling competition Jane rides a constant speed of 12 miles per hour while Jack rides at a constant speed

of 330 feet per minute. How fast are Jane and Jack going in meters per second? Who finishes first? Show your factor-label method work. There are 5280 feet in one mile. There are 3.281 feet in one meter

Answer:

Explanation:

I don't know how you want the conversion done. I use dimensional analysis.

Jane

12 miles / hour [1.6 km/1 mile][1000 m/1 km][1 hour / 3600 sec]

12 * [1.6 * 3600 / 1000  m/s] = 69.12 m/s

5.33 m/s      This answer is a bit shorter than using 5280 feet.

Using 5280 feet

12 miles / hour [5280 ft/1 mile] [1 m/3.281 feet] * [1 hr/3600 sec]

12 * 5280 / (3.281 * 3600)

12 *. 4470

5.36

Jack

330 feet / minute [ 1 meter / 3.281 feet] [1 minute / 60 seconds]

330 * 1/(3.281 * 60)

330 * 1/(196.86)

1.676 m/s

She's going faster than he is, no matter which method is used to do the calculation

The first ionization energy, e, of a potassium atom is 0.696 aj. what is the wavelength of light, in nm, that is just sufficient
elena55 [62]
The formula to be used for this problem is as follows:

E = hc/λ, where h is the Planck's constant, c is the speed of light and λ is the wavelength. Also 1 aJ = 10⁻¹⁸ J

0.696×10⁻¹⁸ = (6.62607004×10⁻³⁴ m²·kg/s)(3×10⁸ m/s)/λ
Solving for λ,
λ = 2.656×10⁻⁷ m or <em>0.022656 nm</em>

A poundal is the force required to accelerate a mass of 1 lbm at a rate of 1 ft/s2, and a slug is the mass of an object that wil
Darya [45]
Remember the formula as per the second Law of Newton: F = m*a

And also remember that the weight is the force with which the mass is attracted by the planet (or satellite in the case of the moon).

With that information you can answer the questions:

a) Weight = F = m*a

m = 175 slugs = 175 lbm

i) Earth

a = 32.17 ft/s^2

Weight on Earth = 175 lbm * 32.17 ft / s^2 = 5,629.75 poundal

ii) Moon

a = [1/6] 32.17 ft/s^2

Weight on the Moon = [1/6]*5,629.75 poundal = 938.29 poundal

b) Force = 355 poundal
m = 25.0 slug

a in m/s^2 = ?

First calculate the force in ft/s^2

F = m*a => a = F/m = 355 poundal / 25.0 slug = 14.2 ft/s^2

Conversion:

14.2 ft / s^2 * [ 0.3048 m/ft] = 4.32816 m/s^2

Answer: 4.33 m/s^2

You try to measure out exactly 5.0 milliliters of water by eye into each of five test tubes. When you go back to check the volum
jeka94

Answer:

The volumes are both, accurate and precise.

Explanation:

In the measurement of a set, precision refers to how much coincidence exists in the measurements of an specific value, as the measurements are close, we can say the volumes are precise.

Accuracy means the agreement that exists between the average of one

large series of measurements and the value of  measurement

Media is 4,96 ml and I wanted to measure 5 ml. It is also close.

Problem One (left)

This is just a straight mc deltaT question

<em><u>Givens</u></em>

m = 535 grams

c = 0.486 J/gm

tf = 50

ti = 1230

Formula

E = m * c * (ti - tf)

Solution

E = 535 * 0.486 * ( 1230 - 50)

E = 535 * 0.486 * (1180)

E = 301077

Answer: A

Problem Two

This one just requires that you multiply the two numbers together and cut it down to 3 sig digits.

E = H m

H = 2257 J/gram

m = 11.2 grams

E = 2257 * 11.2

E = 25278  to three digits is 25300 Joules. Anyway it is the last one.

Three

D and E are both incorrect for the same reason. The sun and stars don't contain an awful lot of Uranium (1 part of a trillion hydrogen atoms). It's too rare. The other answers can all be eliminated because U 235 is pretty stable in its natural state. It has a high activation complex.

Your best chance would be enriched Uranium (which is another way of saying refined uranium). That would be the right environment. Atomic weapons and nuclear power plants (most) used enriched Uranium. You can google "Little Boy" if you want to know more.

Answer: B

Four

The best way to think about this question is just to get the answer. Answer C.

A: incorrect. Anything sticking together implies a larger and larger result. Gases don't work that way. They move about randomly.

B: Wrong. Heat and Temperature especially depend on movement. Stopping is not permitted. If a substance's molecules stopped, the substance would experience an extremely uncomfortable temperature drop.

C: is correct because the molecules neither stop nor do they stick. The hit and move on.

D: Wrong. An ax splitting something? That is not what happens normally and not with ordinary gases. It takes more energy that mere collisions or normal temperatures would provide to get a gas to split apart.

E: Wrong. Same sort of comment as D. Splitting is not the way these things work. They bounce away as in C.

Five

Half life number 1 would leave 0.5 grams behind.

Half life number 2 would leave 1/2 of 1/2 or 1/4 of the number of grams left.

Answer: 0.25

Answer C
