The air in tires can support a car because gases __________.

1 answer:

8 0

Because the air inside the tires is kept at high pressure.

In fact, the force applied by the tires upwards to counter-balance the weight of the car (pushing downwards) is
$F=pA$
where p is the pressure of the air inside the tires and A is the area of contact between the tire and the car. Therefore, a higher pressure means a larger force F, and eventually if the pressure p is higher enough the force F will be large enough to counterbalance the weight of the car.

Which one of the following represents an acceptable set of quantum numbers for an electron in an atom? (arranged as n, l, m l ,

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

The correct option that represents an acceptable set of quantum numbers for an electron in an atom is;

(b) 4, 3, -3, 1/2.

Explanation:

To solve the question, we note that the available options where the set of quantum numbers for an electron in an atom are arranged as n, l, m l , and ms are;

4, 4, 4, 1/2

4, 3, -3, 1/2

4, 3, 0, 0

4, 5, 7, -1/2

4, 4, -5, 1/2

Let us label them as a to as follows

(a) 4, 4, 4, 1/2

(b) 4, 3, -3, 1/2

(d) 4, 5, 7, -1/2

(e) 4, 4, -5, 1/2

Next we note the rules for the assignment and arrangement of quantum numbers are as follows

Number Symbol Possible values

Principal Quantum Number .......n........................1, 2, 3, ......n

Angular momentum quantum

number...............................................l.........................0, 1, 2, .......(n - 1)

Magnetic Quantum Number........m₁......................-l, ..., -1, 0, 1,.....,l

Spin Quantum Number.................m $_s$ .....................+1/2, -1/2

We are meant to analyze each of the arrangement for acceptability.

Therefore for (a),

we note that the angular momentum quantum number, l =4 , is equal to the principal quantum number n =4 which violates the rule as the maximum value of the angular momentum quantum number is (n-1) where the maximum value of the principal quantum number is n.

Therefore (a) is not acceptable.

(b) Here we note that

The principal quantum number n = 4 ∈ (1, 2, 3, ......n) → acceptable

The angular momentum quantum number l = 3 ∈ (0, 1, 2, .......(n - 1)) → acceptable

The magnetic quantum number m₁ = -3 ∈ (-l, ..., -1, 0, 1,.....,l) → acceptable

The spin quantum number m $_s$ = 1/2 ∈ (+1/2, -1/2) → acceptable

Therefore (b) 4, 3, -3, 1/2 represents an acceptable set of quantum numbers for an electron in an atom.

The principal quantum number n = 4 ∈ (1, 2, 3, ......n) → acceptable

The angular momentum quantum number l = 3 ∈ (0, 1, 2, .......(n - 1)) → acceptable

The magnetic quantum number m₁ = 0 ∈ (-l, ..., -1, 0, 1,.....,l) → acceptable

The spin quantum number m $_s$ = 0 ∉ (+1/2, -1/2) → not acceptable

Therefore (c) 4, 3, 0, 0 does not represents an acceptable set of quantum numbers for an electron in an atom.

(d) Here we have;

The principal quantum number n = 4 ∈ (1, 2, 3, ......n) → acceptable

The angular momentum quantum number l = 5 ∉ (0, 1, 2, .......(n - 1)) → not acceptable

The magnetic quantum number m₁ = 7 ∉ (-l, ..., -1, 0, 1,.....,l) → acceptable

The spin quantum number m $_s$ = -1/2 ∈ (+1/2, -1/2) → acceptable

Therefore (d) 4, 5, 7, -1/2 does not represents an acceptable set of quantum numbers for an electron in an atom.

(e) Here we have;

The principal quantum number n = 4 ∈ (1, 2, 3, ......n) → acceptable

The angular momentum quantum number l = 4 ∉ (0, 1, 2, .......(n - 1)) → not acceptable

The magnetic quantum number m₁ = -5 ∉ (-l, ..., -1, 0, 1,.....,l) → acceptable

The spin quantum number m $_s$ = 1/2 ∈ (+1/2, -1/2) → acceptable

Therefore (e) 4, 4, -5, 1/2 does not represents an acceptable set of quantum numbers for an electron in an atom.

A spring driven dart gun propels a 10g dart. It is cocked by exerting a force of 20N over a distance of 5cm. With what speed wil

adelina 88 [10]

<span>14 m/s Assuming that all of the energy stored in the spring is transferred to dart, we have 2 equations to take into consideration. 1. How much energy is stored in the spring? 2. How fast will the dart travel with that amount of energy. As for the energy stored, that's a simple matter of multiplication. So: 20 N * 0.05 m = 1 Nm = 1 J For the second part, the energy of a moving object is expressed as KE = 0.5 mv^2 where KE = Kinetic energy m = mass v = velocity Since we now know the energy (in Joules) and mass of the dart, we can substitute the known values and solve for v. So KE = 0.5 mv^2 1 J = 0.5 0.010 kg * v^2 1 kg*m^2/s^2 = 0.005 kg * v^2 200 m^2/s^2 = v^2 14.14213562 m/s = v So the dart will have a velocity of 14 m/s after rounding to 2 significant figures.</span>

Why must the height of the meniscus in the graduated cylinder match the height of the water in the tub when measuring volume?

galben [10]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

First, in order for you to understand, remember the basic concept of meniscus in graduated cylinder.

<em>"The meniscus is the curve seen at the top of a liquid in response to its container. The meniscus can be either concave or convex, depending on the surface tension of the liquid and its adhesion to the wall of the container".</em>

Now, according to this definition, and for water, the reading of the volume must be donde at the bottom of the curve of the meniscus. This is because the water gives a concave curve.

If you read it and matches the height of water, you are getting two results:

One, get an accurate value or volume, because it's been done at eye level.

The second fact is that when you do the reading this way, The total pressure is made equal to the atmospheric pressure by adjusting the height of the cylinder until the water level is equal.
