the wind pushes a paper cup along the sand at a beach. the cup has a mass of 0.025kg and accelerates at a rate of 5m/s2 how much force is the wind exerting on the cup

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Mass of the paper cup = 0.025 kg
Rate of acceleration of the cup due to force of wind = 5 m/s^2
We already know that
Force = Mass * Acceleration
So Force exerted by the wind on the cup = 0.025 * 5 kg m/s^2
                                                                   = 0.125 Newton
So the force exerted by the wind on the paper cup is 0.125 newton.I hope this is the answer thatyou wanted and the process of doing such problems is clear to you.

How is the number of neutrons and in nucleus of an atom calculated

Answers

Explanation:

Atomic number is defined as the sum of total number of protons present in an atom. Each element has different atomic number.

Whereas mass number is the sum of total number of both protons and neutrons present in an element.

For example, an atom with mass number as 15 and has atomic number 7. Then it means it has 7 protons.

Therefore, number of neutrons present in it will be calculated as follows.

                    Mass number = no. of protons + no. of neutrons

                         15 = 7 + no. of neutrons

                    no. of neutrons = 15 - 7  

                                               = 8

Thus, we can conclude that the number of neutrons is calculated as mass number minus total number of protons present in the atom.

The number of neutrons in an atoms nucleus can be calculated by subtracting the atomic number of that atom from its mass number.

(mass number - atomic number = number of neutrons)

Calculate the mass of 25,000 molecules of nitrogen gas. (1 mole = 6.02 x 1023 molecules)

Answers

Answer: 116.2* 10^(-26) grams

Explanation:

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance weighs equal to the molecular mass and contains avogadro's number 6.023* 10^(23) of particles.

To calculate the moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text {Given molecules}}{\text {Avogadros number}}

\text{Number of moles}=(25000)/(6.023* 10^(23))=4.15* 10^(-26)moles  

Now 1 mole of N_2 gas weighs = 28 grams

4.15* 10^(-26)moles of N_2 gas weighs =(28)/(1)* 4.15* 10^(-26)=116.2* 10^(-26) grams

Thus the mass will be 116.2* 10^(-26) grams.

Hey there!

Molar mass N2 = 28.01 g/mol

Therefore:

28.01 g N2 -------------- 6.02*10²² molecules N2

( mass N2 ?? ) ----------- 25,000 molecules N2

mass N2 =  ( 25,000 * 28.01 ) /  ( 6.02*10²³ )

mass N2 = 700250 / 6.02*10²³

mass N2 = 1.163*10⁻¹⁸ g


Hope that helps!
