When we can get the Kinetic energy from this formula KE= 1/2 M V^2and we can get the potential energy from this formula PE =  M g H
we can set that the kinetic energy at the bottom of the fall equals the potential energy at the top so, KE = PE
1/2 MV^2 = M g H
1/2 V^2 = g H
when V is the velocity, g is an acceleration of gravitational force (9.8 m^2/s) and H is the height of the fall (8 m).
∴ v^2 = 2 * 9.8 * 8 = 156.8
∴ v= √156.8 = 12.5 m/s

Neutrons were discovered in 1932, more than 10 years after the existence of isotopes was confirmed. What property of electrons a
kirza4 [7]

Protons and neutrons are the sub-atomic particles present in the nucleus of an atom where as electrons are present revolving round the nucleus in orbits. Electrons are negatively charged, protons are positively charged where as a neutron is a neutral species. It is the presence of electric charge that lead to the discovery of electrons (negative charge) and protons (positive charge), while it took time to discover neutral as they were electrically neutral species. Neutrons carrying no charge were not detected easily by passing electromagnetic radiations. Therefore, neutrons were the last of the three subatomic particles, to be discovered.

What two-step process separated the cans into aluminum, steel, and tin?
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

Magnet

Durability and heaviness.(texture)

Explanation:

Magnet can be use to separate Aluminum from mixture of steel and aluminum.

Though aluminum and steel look alike but magnet can be use to separate it.

If the can attract the magnet or magnet stick to the can, it is a steel can. Aluminum does not stick to magnet.

A mixture of Aluminum and tin can also be separated by magnet.

Tin attract magnet but tin is more durable, heavy and does not corrode easily.

When u touch the three cans, tin is heavy and durable.

Based on the activity series provided, which reactants will form products?
allsm [11]

Answer: CuI₂ + Br₂

Explanation:

1) The activity series F > Cl > Br > I means that F is the most active and I is the least active of those four elements (the halogens, group 17 in the periodic table).

The activity is a measure of how eager is an element to react compared to other elements in the series in a single replacement reaction.

2) Choice 1: CuI₂ + Br₂

Since the activity of Br is higher than that of I, Br will react with CuI₂, displacing I, which will be left alone, as per this chemical equation:

CuI₂ + Br₂ → CuBr₂ + I₂

Being I less active than Br, it cannot displace Br in CuBr₂.

3) Choice 2: Cl₂ + AlF₃

Being Cl less active than F, the former will not displace the latter, and the reaction will not proceed.

4) Choice 3: Br₂ + NaCl

Again, being Br less active than Cl, the former will not displace the latter, and the reaction will not proceed.

5) Choice 4: CuF₂ + I₂

Once more, being I less active than F, the former will not displace the latter, and the reaction will not proceed.

A voltaic cell is constructed with two silver-silver chloride electrodes, where the half-reaction is AgCl (s) + e− → Ag (s) + Cl
ANTONII [103]

Answer : The cell emf for this cell is 0.118 V

Solution :

The half-cell reaction is:

AgCl(s)+e^\rightarrow Ag(s)+Cl^-(aq)

In this case, the cathode and anode both are same. So, E^o_{cell} is equal to zero.

Now we have to calculate the cell emf.

Using Nernest equation :

E_{cell}=E^o_{cell}-\frac{0.0592}{n}\log \frac{[Cl^{-}{diluted}]}{[Cl^{-}{concentrated}]}

where,

n = number of electrons in oxidation-reduction reaction = 1

E_{cell} = ?

[Cl^{-}{diluted}] = 0.0222 M

[Cl^{-}{concentrated}] = 2.22 M

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

E_{cell}=0-\frac{0.0592}{1}\log \frac{0.0222M}{2.22M}

E_{cell}=0.118V

Therefore, the cell emf for this cell is 0.118 V

Calcium-45 has a half-life of 162.7 days. If four half-lives have elapsed, how much time has passed?
vovikov84 [41]
Half-life<span> is the time required for a quantity to reduce to half its initial value. </span><span>If four half-lives have elapsed for calcium-45, then it would be 4x162.7 = 650.8 days have passed. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day. Feel free to ask more questions.</span>
