Consider the two spheres shown here, one made of silver and the other of aluminum. The spheres are dropped from a height of 1.7 m. Composition - aluminum Density= 2.70 g/cm³ Volume 196 cm³ Composition - silver Density 10.49 g/cm³ Volume=196 cm³ What is the kinetic energy of the silver sphere at the moment it hits the ground? (Assume that energy is conserved during the fall and that 100%% of the sphere's initial potential energy is converted to kinetic energy the time impact occurs.) Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units. Ek = Value Units
A hypothetical metal has a theoretical density of 11.47 g/cm3. This metal adopts a cubic crystal structure with an edge length of 0.387 nm and atomic radius of 0.137 nm.

The thermal conductivities of human tissues vary greatly. Fat and skin have conductivities of about 0.20 W/m · K and 0.020 W/m · K respectively, while other tissues inside the body have conductivities of about 0.50 W/m · K. Assume that between the core region of the body and the skin surface lies a skin layer of 1.0 mm, fat layer of 0.50 cm, and 3.2 cm of other tissues. (a) Find the R-factor for each of these layers, and the equivalent R-factor for all layers taken together, retaining two digits. Rskin m2 · K/W Rfat m2 · K/W Rtissue m2 · K/W R m2 · K/W (b) Find the rate of energy loss when the core temperature is 37°C and the exterior temperature is 0°C. Assume that both a protective layer of clothing and an insulating layer of unmoving air are absent, and a body area of 2.0 m2. W

Ethylene (CH₂CH₂) is the starting point for a wide array of industrial chemical syntheses. For example, worldwide about 8.0 × 10¹0 kg of polyethylene are made from ethylene each year, for use in everything from household plumbing to artificial joints. Natural sources of ethylene are entirely inadequate to meet world demand, so ethane (CH₂CH3) from natural gas is "cracked" in refineries at high temperature in a kinetically complex reaction that produces ethylene gas and hydrogen gas. Suppose an engineer studying ethane cracking fills a 35.0 L reaction tank with 35.0 atm of ethane gas and raises the temperature to 400. °C. He believes K₂=0.20 at this temperature. Calculate the percent by mass of ethylene the engineer expects to find in the equilibrium gas mixture. Round your answer to 2 significant digits. Note for advanced students: the engineer may be mistaken about the correct value of Kp and the mass percent of ethylene you calculate may not be what he actually observes.
5. The Malaysia National Standard for total amount of lead (Pb) in drinking water is 10 µg/L. Two laboratories reported average results for the analysis of two mineral water samples, which were 2.25 mM (sample A) and 1.05 x 10-5 % (in w/v, sample B). Based on the obtained data, decide if it is safe for you to drink the water?
