Answer:

  (b)  0.29 m/s

Explanation:

The average speed is found by dividing the net displacement by the amount of time it took to achieve that displacement.

__

The net displacement is ...

  6 m -8 m = -2 m . . . . . where north is positive

The total time is ...

  2 s + 5 s = 7 s

Then the distance per unit time (speed) is ...

  (2 m)/(7 s) = 2/7 m/s ≈ 0.29 m/s

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

0.0034 sec

Explanation:

L = initial length

T = initial time period = 2.51 s

Time period is given as

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}

2.51 = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{9.8}}

L = 1.56392 m

L' = new length

ΔT = Rise in temperature = 142 °C

α = coefficient of linear expansion = 19 x 10⁻⁶ °C

New length due to rise of temperature is given as

L' = L + LαΔT

L' = 1.56392 + (1.56392) (19 x 10⁻⁶) (142)

L' = 1.56814 m

T' = New time period

New time period is given as

T' = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L'}{g}}

T' = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{1.56814}{9.8}}

T' = 2.5134 sec

Change in time period is given as

ΔT = T' - T

ΔT = 2.5134 - 2.51

ΔT = 0.0034 sec

If you have 12 atoms of hydrogen before a chemical reaction how many atoms of hydrogen will be president after the chemical reac
kaheart [24]
If you have 12 atoms of hydrogen before a chemical reaction, the number of hydrogen atoms that will be present after the chemical reaction is 12 atoms.
The Law of Conservation of Mass (LOCOM) states that mass is neither created nor destroyed before and after any chemical reaction.
According to the Law of Conservation of Mass (LOCOM), a balanced chemical equation requires that the number of atoms on the reactant side must be equal to the number of atoms on the product side of any chemical reaction.
In this context, a chemical reaction having 12 atoms of hydrogen as reactants at the beginning, should also produce a total of 12 atoms of hydrogen as products at the end of the chemical reaction.
