How can single displacement reactions occur between only two elements, assuming one is an isotope?
Q. Text question: For any reactions that occurred, write the corresponding single displacement reaction. Easy enough for a reaction like: Mg + HCl H(subscript 2) + MgCl But then I come to a reaction between Magnesium, and Copper +2. Magnesium is above copper in the metal activity series, so it would bump it out of a polyatomic ion, however in this case there are only two elements in the equation. Any advice on solving this?

A. Cu2+ is actually associated w/ an anion in the aqueous solution which is not mentioned explicitly in the question (and there is no need to mention it!). If you keep in mind that single displacement is just another term for redox reaction you can do this easily: Cu^(2+) (aq) + Mg(s) ---> Cu(s) + Mg(2+) (aq) Since Mg is higher in the activity series, it should "reduce" Cu^(2+) (oxidation state =+2) to Cu (oxidation state = 0). For example, if you dissolve CuSO4 in water it'll become Cu^(2+) and SO4^(2-), and if it reacts with Mg, the formula equation will be: CuSO4(aq) + Mg(s) ---> Cu(s) + MgSO4(aq) [MgSO4 stays in solution as dissociated ions: Mg^(2+) and SO4^(2-)] This looks like a single displacement, doesn't it?

What is the direction of the displacement vector?
Q. You are walking 44 m North. You then turn 60 degrees to the right and continue to walk for another 45 m. What direction is the displacement vector?

A. Let X axis due East and Y axis due North. Then the components of the displacement vector V are: Vx = 45*sin60 = 38.97 m Vy = 44 + 45*cos60 = 66.5 m and tan = Vx/Vy = 0.586 = 30 North to East.

A. displacement is striaght line joining start and end points velocity is displacement / time distance travelled east (or it may turn ut to be west so the sign will be negative doesnt matter) will be x = 1.9 - 2.62 cos (42.5) distance travelled south(or north) will be y = 1.71 - 2.62 sin(452.5) displacement is root (x^2 + y^2) all the best

Asked by Jon - Sat Sep 19 17:21:15 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. 1. You should draw an X Y diagram to help, so you can tell which quadrant each vector is in and assign correct sin and cos (+ and -). 2. Next convert the polar coordinates to i and j form. 6m North (90 degrees is: (6)(cos 90)i + (6)(sin 90)j both cos and sin are + 3.5m at 55 degrees is: (3.5)(cos 55)i + (3.5)(sin 55)j both cos and sine are + Add the two vectors, The result will give you the cos and sin of the angle you are looking for. Use tan= sin/cos or tan= j/i to find the angle. A check is: The squareroot of i^2 + j^2 = 11 (total displacement)

Asked by laurenmunro9 - Thu Oct 1 20:19:47 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Okay, in order to add these vectors and find the resultant displacement you must use the method of components. Remember, always draw a picture, always. In this one, remember the tip-to-tail method. Place all the vectors head to end, the tip of one vector touching the tail of another. First, make a small chart ==x|y -A_|_ -B_|_ -R_|_ In this chart you will put the X-Y Components of your two vectors. Your first vector is a displacement along the X axis of 85m, there is no pitch from the x-axis so the vector and its x component is the same. Remember, a component is the projection of a vector perpendicular to the x and y axes. Sort of similar to its shadows if it had one. Therefore your chart for your vector A (85m horizontally) should… [cont.]

Why the effect of turbocharger in increasing the torque is more than engine displacement?
Q. For example usually factories increase the size of engine to get more torque,but by installing turbochargers the torque increases more than that of increasing the displacement.I want to know the reason why turbos or superchargers increase the torque so much despite smaller displacements.
Asked by lambo l - Mon Nov 19 13:16:24 2007 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Well, turob- and super-chargers pack extra fuel/air mixture into the engine, and changing the displacement will simply give more room for fuel. Both will put about the same amount of fuel into the engine, but packing it in, as these accesories do, will, also, make higher compression, and drive the piston down faster. (If you want to turbo- or super-charge your car, you should supercharge it to eliminate engine lag.)

A. Hooke's law tells us that the force on a spring is directly proportion to the displacement: F=kx, where k is a constant specific to each spring. Your specific question is confusing as it makes no mention of the spring constant, and uses mass instead of force. (F=9.8*M, for Newtons and Kilograms).

Asked by ricojsuave - Wed Feb 27 01:13:53 2008 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. It really is contingent on what you are truely asking. If by tilt you mean the Dip of the fault plane and by "along" you mean a vertical plane then the answer would be a normal fault (if the hanging wall moves upward) or a reverse fault (if the hanging wall moves downward). However, if what you meant to say was that the hanging wall travels horizontally in relation to the other fault block then you are dealing with a Strike Slip Fault.
