Displacement will be zero.

<h3>What is displacement and how is it different from distance?</h3>

Displacement:

It is the shortest distance between an object's beginning position and ending position.
The quantity is a vector.
It may be zero, positive, or negative.
Displacement may be greater than or equal to distance.

In the given question, we start from one point and finish at the same point around the circular track. Therefore there is no distance between the initial and final points because they are the same. That's why the displacement is zero.

Distance:

It is the actual path or distance that an object takes to go from its starting point to its finishing point.
The quantity is a scalar one.
It cannot be 0 or negative; it must be positive.
Displacement and distance may be equal.

Sodium chloride (NaCl) is an ionic solid. It dissolves easily in water. Which property of water allows it to dissolve NaCl? Wate

marin [14]

Answer:

Water is a polar molecule

Explanation:

The general solubility rule is that like dissolves like. In short, polar solutes would dissolve in polar solvents. Non polar solutes also dissolves on non polar solvents.

NaCl is an ionic molecule which forms as a result of transfer of electrons from one atom to another. The transfer of electrons makes the atoms oppositely a charged ions and they become polar.

Water is made up of Hydrogen H⁺ ions and hydroxy ions OH⁻. Water is an heteronuclear covalent molecule. Here, there is an unequal sharing of electrons as one atom pulls the shared electron more closer. This leaves a partial negative charge on the more electronegative atom and a partial positive charge on the other.

This polar nature of water NaCl makes dissolution easy.

Andrej [43]

Answer:

35.14°C

Explanation:

The equation for linear thermal expansion is $\Delta L = \alpha L_0\Delta T$ , which means that a bar of length $L_0$ with a thermal expansion coefficient $\alpha$ under a temperature variation $\Delta T$ will experiment a length variation $\Delta L$ .

We have then $\Delta L$ = 0.481 foot, $L_0$ = 1671 feet and $\alpha$ = 0.000013 per centigrade degree (this is just the linear thermal expansion of steel that you must find in a table), which means from the equation for linear thermal expansion that we have a $\Delta T =\frac{\Delta L }{\alpha L_0}$ = 22.14°. As said before, these degrees are centigrades (Celsius or Kelvin, it does not matter since it is only a variation), and the foot units cancel on the equation, showing no further conversion was needed.

Since our temperature on a cool spring day was 13.0°C, our new temperature must be $T_f=T_0+\Delta T$ = 35.14°C

The force required to pull one of the microscope sliding at a constant speed of 0.28 m/s relative to the other is zero.

<h3>Force required to pull one end at a constant speed</h3>

The force required to pull one of the microscope sliding at a constant speed of 0.28 m/s relative to the other is determined by applying Newton's second law of motion as shown below;

F = ma

where;

m is mass
a is acceleration

At a constant speed, the acceleration of the object will be zero.

F = m x 0

F = 0

Thus, the force required to pull one of the microscope sliding at a constant speed of 0.28 m/s relative to the other is zero.
