The price that a company charged for a basketball hoop is given by the equation 50-5x^2 where x is the number of hoops that are

produced, in millions. It costs the company $30 to make each basketball hoop. The company recently reduced its production to 1 million hoops but maintained its profit of 15 million dollars. Approximately how many basketball hoops did the company previously produce to make the same profit?
A) 1.3 million hoops B) 1.4 million hoops
C) 15 million hoops D) 30 million hoops

Inessa [12570]

Assuming a maximum rental duration of 8 days, if we apply this to the equation, Happy Harry's Rentals costs $500, while Smilin' Sam's charges $600. Therefore, for the 7th and 8th days, Happy Harry's Rentals is a better option, while Smilin' Sam's is preferable for the first six days.

What is the logarithm of the equilibrium constant, log K, at 25°C of the voltaic cell constructed from the following two half-re

lawyer [12517]

Answer:

4.0921 reflects the logarithm of the equilibrium constant.

Step-by-step explanation:

$Fe^{2+} (aq) +2e^{-}\rightarrow Fe(s)$ ; E° = - 0.41 V

$Ag^+(aq) + e^-\rightarrow Ag(s)$ ; E° = 0.80 V

Iron has a negative reduction potential, indicating its tendency to lose electrons and undergo oxidation, and thus it will be at the anode.

$E^{o}_{cell}$ =Reduction potential of cathode - Reduction potential of anode

$E^{o}_{cell}=E^{o}_c-E^{o}_a$

$=0.80 V-(-0.41 V)=1.21 V$

$Fe^{2+} (aq) + 2e^{-}\rightarrow Fe(s)$ ; E° = - 0.41 V

$2Ag^+(aq) + 2e^-\rightarrow 2Ag(s)$ ; E° = 0.80 V

Net reaction: $Fe(s)+2Ag^{+}\rightarrow Fe^{2+}+2Ag(s)$

n = 2

To determine the equilibrium constant, we utilize the correlation with Gibbs free energy, as follows:

$\Delta G^o=-nfE^o_{cell}$

and,

$\Delta G^o=-RT\ln K_{eq}$

Aligning these two equations yields:

$nfE^o_{cell}=RT\ln K_{eq}$

where,

n = electrons transferred = 2

F = Faraday's constant = 96500 C

$E^o_{cell}$ = standard electrode potential of the cell = 1.21 V

R = gas constant = 8.314 J/K.mol

T = reaction temperature = $25^oC=[273+25]=298K$

Substituting values into the equation, we arrive at:

$2\times 96500\times 1.21 V=8.314\times 298\times \ln K_{eq}$

$\ln K_{eq}=9.3478$

$\log K_{eq}=\frac{9.3478}{2.303}=4.0921$

4.0921 represents the logarithm of the equilibrium constant.

Response:1 and 2

Step-by-step Explanation:

Provided data

Volume required $V=220\ in.^3$

For the initial cylinder

$r=3\ in.$

$h=4\ in.$

$V=\pi r^2h$

$V_1=\pi (3)^2(4)$

$V_1=113.11\ in^3$

For the second cylinder

$r=4\ in.$

$h=4\ in.$

$V=\pi r^2h$

$V_2=\pi (4)^2(4)$

$V_2=201.08\ in^3$

For the third cylinder

$r=9\ in.$

$h=9\ in.$

$V=\pi r^2h$

$V_3=\pi (9)^2(9)$

$V_3=2290.51\ in^3$

For the fourth cylinder

$r=4\ in.$

$h=9\ in.$

$V=\pi r^2h$

$V_4=\pi (4)^2(9)$

$V_4=452.448\ in^3$

Thus, cylinders $1$ and $2$ meet the requirement as they remain under $220\ in.^3$
