Answer:

Correct answer: t = 2.86 seconds

Explanation:

We first use this formula

V² - V₀² = 2 a d    

where V is the final velocity (speed), V₀ the initial velocity (speed),

a the acceleration and d the distance.

We will calculate the acceleration from this formula

a = (V² - V₀²) / (2 d) = (2.5² - 1²) / (2 · 5) = (6.25 - 1) / 10 = 5.25 / 10

a = 0.525 m/s²

then we use this formula

V = V₀ + a t  => t = (V - V₀) / a = (2.5 - 1) / 0.525 = 1.5 / 0.525 = 2.86 seconds

t = 2.86 seconds

The wavelength of light is 5000 angstrom. Express it in nm and m.
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

1 angstrom = 0.1nm

5000 angstrom = 5000/1 × 0.1nm

<h3>= 500nm</h3>

1 \:  angstrom = 1 \times  {10}^{ - 10} m

5000 angstrom = 5000 × 1 × 10^-10

<h3>= 5 × 10^-7 m</h3>

Hope this helps you

A car of mass 750 kg accelerates away from traffic lights. At the end of the first 100 m it has reached a speed
malfutka [58]

the work done on the car by the force of its engine is 78,000 J.

" The work done on the car by the force of friction is 24,000 J.

Increasing the car's kinetic energy at the end of the first 100 m is 54,000J

a. Completed work = force x distance. Engine output = 780 N, that is,

780 N x 100 m = 78,000 J.

b. Completed work = force x distance. Friction force = 240 N, that is,

240 N x 100 m = 24,000 J.

c. Kinetic energy = 1 \ 2 x m x v2

= 1 \ 2 x 750 kg x 12 squared = 375 x 144 = 54,000 J.

<h3>How powerful is the engine of a car? </h3>

Mainstream car and truck engines typically produce 100-400 pounds. -Torque feet. This torque is generated by the engine piston as it moves up and down on the engine crankshaft, causing the engine to rotate (or twist) continuously.

Heptane is always composed of 84.0% carbon and 16.0% hydrogen. This illustrates the law of multiple proportions. conservation of
BigorU [14]

Heptane is always composed of 84.0% carbon and 16.0% hydrogen. This illustrates the "law of definite proportions".

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation:</u>

Proust's law states that every chemical compound used to made up of element constituents with constant proportions in terms of its mass and also independent from its sources and synthesis method. In 1779, Joseph Proust gave other names to the Proust's law as, the law of composition or definite proportions or constant compositions.

This can understood from given example like: Oxygen is composed of 8/9 of the mass of any sample of pure water while the hydrogen fills up the remaining 1/9 of the mass. The basis of stoichiometry is structured with the law of multiple proportions along the law of definite proportions.

If we use to construct the latches on the windows and doors, then the magnetism will keep thee latches secure.
Daniel [21]

Answer:

<em>a. True</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

I'll assume the question is about magnetic latches and locks.

Magnetic door locks use an electromagnetic force to stop doors from opening, so they are ideal for security. There are two main types of electric locking devices. Locking devices can either be a fail-secure locking device that remains locked when power is lost, or a fail-safe locking device that is unlocked when de-energized. An electromagnetic lock creates a magnetic field when energized or powered up, this causes an electromagnet and armature plate to become attracted to each other strongly enough to keep a door from opening.
