By considering Newton's second law and his law of gravitation, derive an expression for gravitational field strength g in terms of its mass, m, the distance from its center of mass, r, and the gravitational constant, G.

Newton's second law of motion is F = ma and his law of gravitation is F= GMm/r^2.g is the acceleration of free fall and can be substituted for a, F = mg.We can therefore see that g = F/m and can use that to ...

How do I write the full equation of a cell from two half cells? (basic, with matching electron counts and no water/acid)

Lets use an example:Fe 3+ (aq) + e - <==> Fe 2+ (aq) E 0 = +0.771 VLi + (aq) + e - <==> Li(s) E 0 = -3.040 V Step 1: Work out which half equation has the most positive standard electrode potentia...
