Answer: 2.19 seconds

Explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

Initial speed, u = 0 m/s

Acceleration of the boat, a = 5 m/s^2

Distance between the boat and dock, d = 12 m

Using the third kinematics equation to solve for time:

d = u*t + (1/2)*a*t^2

12 = 0*t + (1/2)*5*t^2

t = sqrt (12*2/5)

t = 2.19 seconds

Therefore, it will take the boat approximately 2.19 seconds to reach the dock

Why are eight electrons (four pairs) surrounding each non-hydrogen atom the optimal electronic arrangement for covalent molecule
rodikova [14]

Eight electrons surrounding each non-hydrogen atom is the optimal electronic arrangement for covalent molecules because it is needed to achieve an octet structure and is necessary to fill both the s and p subshells of electrons.

<h3>What is Covalent bonding?</h3>

This is the type of bonding which involves the sharing of electrons between atoms of an element.

This is done to achieve an octet configuration thereby making them stable and less reactive thereby making it the most appropriate choice.

What is the difference between balanced force and action reaction force
Vilka [71]

Answer:

Balanced forces are equal and opposite forces that act on the same object. ... Action-reaction forces are equal and opposite forces that act on different objects, so they don't cancel out. In fact, they often result in motion.

A 1.5-kilogram cart initially moves at 2.0 meters per second. It is brought to rest by a constant net force in 0.30 second. What
AnnZ [28]
Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

Change in speed = (speed at the end) minus (speed at the beginning.

The cart's acceleration is

                               (0 - 2 m/s) / (0.3 sec)

                           = ( -2 / 0.3 ) (m/s²)  =  -(6 and 2/3) m/s² .

Newton's second law of motion says

                             Force = (mass) x (acceleration) .

For this cart:      Force = (1.5 kg) x ( - 6-2/3 m/s²)

                                       = ( - 1.5 x 20/3 ) (kg-m/s²)

<span>                                       =      </span>- 10 newtons .

<span>The force is negative because it acts opposite to the direction </span>
<span>in which the cart is moving, it causes a negative acceleration, </span>
<span>and it eventually stops the cart.</span>
