Average speed = (distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)

Average speed = (4 meters) / (5 seconds)

Average speed = (4/5) (meters/seconds)

Average speed = 0.8 m/s

Which of these best explains the ability of small insects to walk on the surface of still water?

Furkat [3]

Well, the surface of still water has surface tension. If there isn't enough mass or weight to break the surface tension, the object will float.

What is the % error in using g = 10.0 m/s^2? (Take the value ofg as 9.8 m/s^2)

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

So percentage error will be 2 %

Explanation:

We have given initial value of acceleration due to gravity $g=10m/sec^2$

And final value of acceleration due to gravity $g=9.8m/sec^2$

We have to find the percentage error

We know that percentage error is given by $percentage\ error=\frac{initial\ value-final\ value}{initial\ value}\times 100$

So $percentage\ error=\frac{10-9.8}{10}\times 100=2$ %

Which statement best explains how isotopes can have different masses and still be the same element?

ss7ja [257]

Your list of choices is a very short list, and doesn't include any
correct explanation.

The mass of an atom is roughly the number of protons AND neutrons
in its nucleus, but the element only depends on how many protons are there.

Different atoms of the same element may have different numbers of
neutrons, so their masses are different. But they're the same element,
because they all have the same number of protons.

A plastic box has an initial volume of 2.00 m 3 . It is then submerged below the surface of a liquid and its volume decreases to

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

Volume strain is 0.02

Explanation:

Volume strain is defined as the change in volume to the original volume.

It is given that,

Initial volume of the plastic box is 2 m³

It is then submerged below the surface of a liquid and its volume decreases to 1.96 m³

We need to find the volume strain on the box. It is defined as the change in volume divided by the original volume. So,

$\delta V=\dfrac{V_f-V_i}{V_i}\\\\\delta V=\dfrac{1.96-2}{2}\\\\\delta V=0.02$

So, the volume strain on the box is 0.02.
