Answer: Yes and no.

Explanation: Mass is the amount of matter in an object, whereas weight is the force exerted on an object by gravity. Objects on the surface of the earth have weight, although sometimes the weight is difficult to measure.

A mixture of helium and oxygen is used in scuba diving tanks to help prevent ""the bends"". 46 L helium and 12 L oxygen are comb

marin [14]

Answer

given,

For helium

Volume,V = 46 L

Pressure,P = 1 atm

Temperature,T = 25°C = 273 +25 = 298 K

R=0.0821 L . atm /mole.K

n₁ = ?

number of moles

we know

P V = n R T

$n_1 =\dfrac{46 \times 1}{0.0821\times 298}$

n₁ = 1.89 moles

For oxygen

Volume,V = 12 L

Pressure,P = 1 atm

Temperature,T = 25°C = 273 +25 = 298 K

R=0.0821 L . atm /mole.K

n₂ = ?

number of moles

we know

P V = n R T

$n_2 =\dfrac{12 \times 1}{0.0821\times 298}$

n₂ = 0.49 moles

Total volume of tank = 5 L

temperature of tank = 298 K

Partial pressure of helium

$P_1=\dfrac{n_1 R T}{V}$

$P_1=\dfrac{1.89\times 0.0821\times 298}{5}$

P₁ = 9.25 atm

Partial pressure of oxygen

$P_2=\dfrac{n_2 R T}{V}$

$P_2=\dfrac{0.49\times 0.0821\times 298}{5}$

P₂ = 2.39 atm

total pressure

P = P₁ + P₂

P = 9.25 + 2.39

P = 11.64 atm

g Estimate the number of photons emitted by the Sun in a second. The power output from the Sun is 4 Ã— 1026 W and assume that th

vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

The value is $N = 1.107 *10^{45 } \ photons$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The power output from the sun is $P_o = 4 * 10^{26} \ W$

The average wavelength of each photon is $\lambda = 550 \ nm = 550 *10^{-9} \ m$

Generally the energy of each photon emitted is mathematically represented as

$E_c = \frac{h * c }{ \lambda }$

Here h is the Plank's constant with value $h = 6.62607015 * 10^{-34} J \cdot s$

c is the speed of light with value $c = 3.0 *10^{8} \ m/s$

$E_c = \frac{6.62607015 * 10^{-34} * 3.0 *10^{8} }{ 550 *10^{-9} }$

=> $E_c = 3.614 *10^{-19} \ J$

Generally the number of photons emitted by the Sun in a second is mathematically represented as

$N = \frac{P }{E_c}$

=> $N = \frac{4 * 10^{26} }{3.614 *10^{-19}}$

=> $N = 1.107 *10^{45 } \ photons$

Will mark as brainliest if correct!!!!!!!!!!!

Aneli [31]

Answer:

The answer is A.

Explanation:

The diagram shows the light ray bending away from the normal. Light rays bend away from the normal when their speed increases. This means that in the diagram, the light ray moves from a medium in which light has a lower speed to a medium in light has a higher speed. The only choice where the speed of light increases from A to B is answer A. So that has to be the answer.
