Would you expect the first ionization enthalpies for two isotopes of the same element to be the same or different? Justify your answer.

The ionization enthalpy of an atom depends on the number of electrons and protons (nuclear charge) of that atom. Now, the isotopes of an element have the same number of...

Two objects of masses m1 and m2 having the same size are dropped simultaneously from heights h1 and h2 respectively.

h1 = 1/ 2 gt21  h2 = 1/ 2 gt22 , as x = o  t1/ t2 = √(h1/h2) Ratio will not change in either case because acceleration remains the same. In case of...

From a rifle of mass 4 kg, a bullet of mass 50 g is fired with an initial velocity of 35 m s- '1. Calculate the initial recoil velocity of the rifle.

Mass of the rifle, m1 = 4 kg  Mass of the bullet, m2 = 50g = 0.05 kg  Recoil velocity of the rifle = v1  Bullet is fired with an initial velocity, v2...

Harpreet tosses two different coins simultaneously (say, one is of Rs.1 and other of Rs.2). What is the probability that she gets at least one head?

When two coins are tossed simultaneously, the possible outcomes are(H, H),(H, T),(T, H),(T, T) which are all equally likely. Here (H, H) means head up on the first coin (say on Rs.1) and...

The range of a projectile fired at an angle of 15° is 50 m. If it is fired with the same speed at an angle of 45°, its range will be

(d) 100 m. Explanation: In the first case Range = 50 = (u2 /g) Sin(2x15°) = (u2 /2g)  => (u2 /g)=100  In the second case range = (u2 /g) Sin(2x45°) = (u2...
