Why a raw egg shell disolves when submerge in vineger

quester [9]

If you soak this egg shell in vinegar (which is about 4% acetic acid), you start a chemical reaction that dissolves the calcium carbonate shell. The acetic acid reacts with the calcium carbonate in the egg shell and releases carbon dioxide gas that you see as bubbles on the shell.

Complete question:

A 200 g load attached to a horizontal spring moves in simple harmonic motion with a period of 0.410 s. The total mechanical energy of the spring–load system is 2.00 J. Find

(a) the force constant of the spring and (b) the amplitude of the motion.

Answer:

(a) the force constant of the spring = 47 N/m

(b) the amplitude of the motion = 0.292 m

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the spring, m = 200g = 0.2 kg

period of oscillation, T = 0.410 s

total mechanical energy of the spring, E = 2 J

The angular speed is calculated as follows;

$\omega = \frac{2\pi}{T} \\\\\omega = \frac{2\pi}{0.41} \\\\\omega = 15.33 \ rad/s$

(a) the force constant of the spring

$\omega = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} } \\\\\omega^2 = \frac{k}{m} \\\\k = m \omega^2\\\\k = (0.2)(15.33)^2\\\\k = 47 \ N/m$

(b) the amplitude of the motion

E = ¹/₂kA²

2E = kA²

A² = 2E/k

$A = \sqrt{\frac{2E}{k} } \\\\A = \sqrt{\frac{2\times 2}{47} }\\\\A = 0.292 \ m$

Bare free charges do not remain stationary when close together. To illustrate this, calculate the acceleration of two isolated p

Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

Acceleration, $a=9.91\times 10^{15}\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

It is given that,

Separation between the protons, $r=3.73\ nm=3.73\times 10^{-9}\ m$

Charge on protons, $q=1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C$

Mass of protons, $m=1.67\times 10^{-27}\ kg$

We need to find the acceleration of two isolated protons. It can be calculated by equating electric force between protons and force due to motion as :

$ma=\dfrac{kq^2}{r^2}$

$a=\dfrac{kq^2}{mr^2}$

$a=\dfrac{9\times 10^9\times (1.6\times 10^{-19})^2}{1.67\times 10^{-27}\times (3.73\times 10^{-9})^2}$

$a=9.91\times 10^{15}\ m/s^2$

So, the acceleration of two isolated protons is $9.91\times 10^{15}\ m/s^2$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

PLSS HELP!!! THIS IS URGENT

Fed [463]

Answer:

D. Sand carried by rivers flows over and weathers the rocks.

Explanation:

The sand in the river is move because of the flow of the river and as the sand moves it grinds on the rocks in the river. This starts a process know as abrasion, in other words it means that it wheathers(grinds) against the rocks.
