Which of these is true about the possible number of compounds that can be formed? there is an infinite number of possible compounds because some compounds are not reactive. there is an infinite number of possible compounds because the number of elements is unlimited. there is a finite number of possible compounds because the number of elements is limited. there is a finite number of possible compounds because all compounds are reactive.

Clothing made of several thin layers of fabric with trapped air in between, often called ski clothing, is commonly used in cold climates because it is light, fashionable, and a very effective thermal insulator. so it is no surprise that such clothing has largely replaced thickand heavy old-fashioned coats. (a) consider a jacket made of five layers of 0.1-mm-thick synthetic fabric (k = 0.13 w/m·°c) with 1.5-mm-thick air space (k = 0.026 w/m·°c) between the layers. assuming the inner surface temperature of the jacket to be 28°c and the surface area to be 1.25 m2, determine the rate of heat loss through the jacket when the temperature of the outdoors is 0°c and the heat transfer coefficient at the outer surface is 25 w/m2·°c. (b) what would your response be if the jacket is made of a single layer of 0.5-mm-thick synthetic fabric? what should be the thickness of a wool fabric (k = 0.035 w/m·°c) if the person is to achieve the same level of thermal comfort wearing a thick wool coat instead of a five-layer ski jacket?

During a medieval siege of a castle, the attacking army uses a trebuchet to hurl heavy stones at the castle walls. if the trebuchet launches the stones with a velocity of at an angle of 50.0°, (a) how long does it take the stone to hit the ground? (b) what is the maximum distance that the trebuchet can be from the castle wall to be in range? (c) how high will the stones go? show all your work.

An electric power distributor charges residential customers $0.10 per kilowatt-hour (kwh). the company advertises that "green power" is available in 150 kwh blocks for an additional $4 per month. (green power is generated from solar, wind power, and methane sources.) if a certain customer uses an average of 391 kwh per month and commits to one monthly 150 kwh block of green power, what is her annual power bill
