First off, thank you for the swift reply.
It seems that is the correct method of solving the problem, but I am curious as to when I can use the heat capacity of water. Is there a general guideline as to how concentrated a solution has to be before you can no longer say its heat capacity is...
Hello there,
I am supposed to experimentally determine (with the use of a calorimeter) the overall heat of reaction per mole of calcium metal in two cases:
1. When I mix HCL, calcium and water in that order.
2. When I mix water, calcium and HCL in that order.
In each case, I am...
Ah, I completely neglected the fact it was traveling down from its peak and so the y represents how far the basket is from the top of its height.
Thanks to you both! (I feel silly for ignoring that negative sign for gravity now)
The problem: (Note: the correct answer is bolded throughout)
A basketball is launched with an initial speed of 8 m/s at a 45 degree angle from the horizontal. The ball enters the basket in 0.96 seconds. What is the distance x and y?
Just ignore the distance x, I know it's simply the product...
