    Chemistry Calculate Moles of NaOH: Homework Help

    Well, we did not get the concentrations. We put the NaOH in a burette then recorded the initial and final volume. Also recorded the amount of acetic acid used. I think some are calculating moles by using the number 22.4 not sure what that means though?

    A question that asks you to figure out the mass of the moon

    a = GM/R2 g = (1/6)(9.81) = X m/s2 r = (1/3.65)(6.378x106) = Y m m/r2 = a/G m/(Y)2 = X/ (6.67x10-11) m = ANS kg

    How Do You Calculate the Sun's Mass Using Mars' Orbital Data?

    Ok well you can you can set Fg equal to Fc. Fg = Fc G msmm/r2 = mm4π2r/T2 Simplifies to G Ms = 4π2r3/T2 So (6.67x10-11) Ms = 4(3.14)2(2.18x1011)3/(52980480)2 Ms = UDOIT kg

    What do you find most difficult about English?

    What I like about English is that most of the phrases are the same for both masculine and feminine cases. If you look at slavic languages there are different words for the masculine and feminine cases.

    Did I Calculate the Final Velocity and Direction of the Hockey Puck Correctly?

    Ok re did and got this for the x and y components vx = vcosθ v1y=vsinθ v1y=5.21 m/s and vx=29.54 m/s now for next part I did: dx=vx(t) 20=29.54(t) t=0.677 sec v2y=v1y+(g)(t) v2y=5.21+(-9.81)(0.677) v2y= -1.4 m/s v2=√ 29.542+(-1.4)2 v2=29.5 m/s tan-1(-1.4/29.54)=θ...

    How to find the solution (x,y)

    y = 2 [x-y=1] -1 [2x+y=-4] 2x-2y=2 -2x-y=4 -------- -3y=6 y=-2 1[x-y=1] 1[2x+y=-4] x-y=1 2x+y=-4 -------- -x=-3 x=3 I think I did x wrong somehow but don't know what, but I think I did y right. like that??
