If a car sets off from rest with a constant acceleration of 3 m/(s^2), what would its speed be after 5 seconds?

Firstly we write down all known variables: Initial speed (u)=0 m/s, Acceleration (a)=3 m/s 2 , Time (t)=5s. Final velocity (v)=?Therefore, the equation chosen to solve the problem would be: v=u+at. Substitut...

Find the values of x given the equation (4x^2)-3x+1=2 using the quadratic formula.

4x 2 -3x+1=2The first step is to rearrange the equation, equating it to zero: 4x 2 -3x+1-2=0 which gives 4x 2 -3x-1=0. Next we apply the quadratic formula: x=(-b +/- sqrt(b 2 -4ac))/2a where a=4, b=-3 and c=...

25cm3 NaOH was titrated with 0.05mol dm-3 HCl. 21.5m3 of HCl neutralised 25cm3 of NaOH. What is the concentration of NaOH in mol dm-3?

NaOH + HCl --> NaCl + H 2 O 1 : 1 : 1 moles (mol) = concentration (mol dm -3 ) x volume (dm 3 ) n(HCl) = 0.05 (mol dm -3 ) x 21.5/1000 (dm 3 ) = 0.001075 moles (1.075 x 10 -3 ) Using 1:1 molar ratio: n(Na...
