You are standing on a bathroom scale in an elevator in a tall building. Your mass is 64 kg. The elevator starts from rest and travels upward with a speed that varies with time according to v(t) = (3.0 m/s2)t + (0.20 m/s3)t2. When t = 4.0 s, what is the reading on the bathroom scale?

= 922N

Explanation:

m = 64kg

v(t) = (3.0 m/s²)t + (0.20 m/s³)t².

t = 4.0s

differentiation of v(t) so the acceleration is given by

using Newton’s second law

F (net) = ΣFg = ma

⇒R - w = ma

R = m(a + g)

 = 64 (9.81 + 4.6)

 = 922N

electrical to thermal

  the grams     of oxygen gas   that can be produced     is 20.6   grams of o₂

calculation

2liclo₃ →   2 licl + 3 o₂

step 1:   find the moles of liclo₃

moles = mass÷ molar mass

from periodic table the molar mass of liclo₃ =6.9 +35.5   +(16 x3) =90.4 g/mol

moles=38.7 g÷90.4 g/mol=0.4281   moles

step 2:   use the   mole ratio   to calculate the moles of o2

from equation above, liclo₃: o₂   is 2: 3  

therefore the moles of   o₂=0.4281 moles x3/2 =0.6422   moles

step 3: find mass   of o₂

mass= moles x molar mass

from periodic table the   molar mass of   o₂ = 16 x2= 32 g/mol

mass=0.6422   moles   x   32 g/mol = 20.6 grams of o₂
