Mount Everest rises to a height of 8,850 m above sea level. At a base camp on the mountain the atmospheric pressure is measured

Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

74.86°C

Explanation:

P₂ = Vapour pressure of water at sea level = 760 mmHg

P₁ = Pressure at base camp = 296 mmHg

T₂ = Temperature of water = 373 K

ΔH°vap for H2O = 40.7 kJ/mol = 40700 J/mol

R = Gas constant = 8.314 J/mol K

From Claussius Clapeyron equation

$ln\frac{P_2}{P_1}=\frac{\Delta H}{R}\left(\frac{1}{T_1}-\frac{1}{T_2}\right)\\\Rightarrow ln\frac{760}{296}=\frac{40700}{8.314}\left(\frac{1}{T_1}-\frac{1}{373}\right)\\\Rightarrow ln\frac{760}{296}\times \frac{8.314}{40700}+\frac{1}{373}=\frac{1}{T_1}\\\Rightarrow 0.0028735=\frac{1}{T_1}\\\Rightarrow T_1=347.996\ K$

T₁ = 347.996 K = 74.86°C

∴Water will boil at 74.86°C

A projectile is launched from ground level at an angle of 30 degrees above the horizontal. Neglect air resistance and consider t

Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

just before landing the ground

Explanation:

Let the velocity of projection is u and the angle of projection is 30°.

Let T is the time of flight and R is the horizontal distance traveled. As there is no force acting in horizontal direction, so the horizontal velocity remains constant. Let the particle hits the ground with velocity v.

initial horizontal component of velocity, ux = u Cos 30

initial vertical component of velocity, uy = u Sin 30

Time of flight is given by

$T = \frac{2u Sin\theta }{g}$

Final horizontal component of velocity, vx = ux = u Cos 30

Let vy is teh final vertical component of velocity.

Use first equation of motion

vy = uy - gT

$v_{y}=u_{y}- g \times \frac{2u Sin\theta }{g}$

$v_{y}=u Sin 30 - 2u Sin 30$

vy = - u Sin 30

The magnitude of final velocity is given by

$v = \sqrt{v_{x}^{2}+v_{y}^{2}}$

$v = \sqrt{\left (uCos 30 \right )^{2}+\left (uSin 30 \right )^{2}}$

v = u

Thus, the velocity is same as it just reaches the ground.

agasfer [191]

A synthesis reaction occurs when a molecule is formed from the bonding of atoms, ions or simpler molecules. A single product is created from multiple reactants. These reactions are exothermic since they release energy in the form of light and heat.
