The old view of the solar system was geocentric, which means that people believed that the Earth is the center of the universe. However, with the discoveries of Galileo, Newton, and Copernicus, evidence was brought forth that the solar system is actually heliocentric, which means that the sun is the center of the universe.

A cyclist going downhill is accelerating at 1.2 m/s2. If the final velocity of the cyclist is 16 m/s after 10 seconds, what is t

Blababa [14]

Answer:

Initial Velocity is 4 m/s

Explanation:

What is acceleration?

It is the change in velocity with respect to time, or the rate of change of velocity.

We can write this as:

$a=\frac{\Delta v}{t}$

Where

a is the acceleration

v is velocity

t is time

$\Delta$ is "change in"

For this problem , we are given

a = 1.2

t = 10

Putting into formula, we get:

$a=\frac{\Delta v}{t}\\1.2=\frac{\Delta v}{10}\\\Delta v = 1.2*10\\\Delta v = 12$

So, the change in velocity is 12 m/s

The change in velocity can also be written as:

$\Delta v = Final \ Velocity - Initial \ Velocity$

It is given Final Velocity = 16, so we put it into formula and find Initial Velocity. Shown Below:

$\Delta v = Final \ Velocity - Initial \ Velocity\\12=16-Initial \ Velocity\\Initial \ Velocity = 16 - 12 = 4$

hence,

Initial Velocity is 4 m/s

A hydrogen atom has a diameter of about 10 nm. Express this diameter in meters. Express this diameter in millimeters. Express th

Fynjy0 [20]

So, the first question is: how many meters are 10 nm?

1nm =0.000000001 m.

So 10 nanometers are 0.00000001 m!

Now, how many milimeter are those?
let's start with meters, 1 meter are 1000 milimeters.
so 
0.00000001*1000=0.00001 m!

now, micrometers .1 micrometer are 1000 nanometers.
so 10 nanometers are 0.01 micrometers! (1 nanometer is 0.001 micrometers)
