Chemical Reaction between metal oxide and water solution
Answer: 13.2 seconds.
Explanation: using equation of motion; S= ut +1/2at² where u = initial velocity=0
S= distance travelled
a = acceleration due gravity
t= time.
1 foot = 0.305m so,
S= 2860 feet =872.3m
S= ut+1/2 at²
872.3 = 0×t + 1/2×10 × t²
872.3 =0 + 5t²
T²= 872.3/5
T²= 174.46
Take the square root of T we then have;
t = 13.2 seconds to one decimal place.
V: velocity of wave
f: frequency
L: wavelenght
v = fL => L = v/f => L = (3x10^8)/(900x10^3) => L = 3.33 x 10^2m
B. cart B
Explanation:
The acceleration of each cart is given by Newton's second law:


where F is the force applied, a is the acceleration and m is the cart's mass.
The force F applied is the same for the two carts, however the mass of cart A (mA) is twice than the mass of cart B (mB), so we can rewrite the two accelerations:


we see that the acceleration of cart B is twice the acceleration of cart A, therefore cart B will move faster and will win the race.
