How many seconds will it take for a the International Space Station to travel 450 km at a rate of 100 m/s?

In 1995 a research group led by eric cornell and carl wiemann at the university of colorado successfully cooled rubidium atoms to the 20-200 nk temperature range. assuming (incorrectly) that the rubidium atoms behave liké particles of a classical ideal gas, calculate the rms speed of a rubidium atom at a temperature of 112.0 nk. in the experiments one particular isotope of rubidium was used, rubidium-87. the molar mass of this isotope is 86.91 q/mol. tries 0/20 submit answer

The ultracentrifuge is an important tool for separating and analyzing proteins. because of the enormous centripetal accelerations, the centrifuge must be carefully balanced, with each sample matched by a sample of identical mass on the opposite side. any difference in the masses of opposing samples creates a net force on the shaft of the rotor, potentially leading to a catastrophic failure of the apparatus. suppose a scientist makes a slight error in sample preparation and one sample has a mass 10 mg larger than the opposing sample. if the samples are 12 cm from the axis of the rotor and the ultracentrifuge spins at 70,000 rpm, what is the magnitude of the net force on the rotor due to the unbalanced samples? ( be thorough on your answer)

Beryl states that insulation with the smallest possible thermal conductivity is best to keep a house warm in winter, but worst for keeping a house cool in summer. sapphire insists the reverse is true: low thermal conductivity is good in the summer, but bad in the winter. which one, if either is correct? a. beryl, because low thermal conductivity results in low heat transfer. b. beryl, because low thermal conductivity results in high heat transfer. d. sapphire, because low thermal conductivity results in high heat transfer. e. neither, because low heat transfer is desirable both in summer and in winter.
