28. What volume of silver is needed to make a silver electrode weighing 155 g if
the density of silver is 10.49 g/cm3 ?
29. For capacitors wired in series, the equivalent capacitance is calculated
1 1 1
using 𝐶 = 𝐶 + 𝐶 .(See Eq. A72.) What is C if C1 = 24 microfarads (F) and C2 =
1 2
15 F?
30. The half-life of a chemical reaction, 𝑡1⁄ , is the time it takes for half of
2
the original substance to react. For certain reactions, the half-life is
1
found by the equation 𝑡1⁄ = seconds, where k is a constant (different for
2 𝑘𝐶0
each reaction) and C0 is the original concentration of reactant. Find 𝑡1⁄ if
2
k = 0.487 and C0 = 1.201.

Therefore, the moment of inertia of a sphere with a mass of 12.0 kg and a
radius of 5.29 m is (2/5)(12.0)(5.29)2 kg m². Calculate this moment of
inertia.
38. The Pythagorean theorem says that the length of the hypotenuse is the root
of the sum of the squares of the two legs. Therefore, the length of the
hypotenuse of a right triangle with legs 178.2 cm and 78.4 cm long is
√(178.2)2 + (78.4)2. Calculate this length.
