Answer:

the pressure at the depth is 1.08 × $10^{8}$ Pa

Explanation:

The pressure at the depth is given by,

P = h $\rho$ g

Where, P = pressure at the depth

h = depth of the Pacific Ocean in the Mariana Trench = 36,198 ft = 11033.15 meter

$\rho$ = density of water = 1000 $\frac{kg}{m^{3} }$

g = acceleration due to gravity ≈ 9.8 $\frac{m}{s^{2} }$

P = 11033.15 × 9.8 × 1000

P = 1.08 × $10^{8}$ Pa

Thus, the pressure at the depth is 1.08 × $10^{8}$ Pa

Cations are formed by losing electrons

Cations are basically positive ions

It's not lose or gain protons because atoms can't lose or gain protons. The protons don't move.
It's not gain electrons because electrons are negative. More electrons=more negative

If you can't remember cations are positive
CAT-ions are PAWS-itively charged

A person runs 15 kilometers in two hours what is his/her average speed

bazaltina [42]

Answer:

$\displaystyle V=7.5\ km/h$

Explanation:

<u>Average Speed </u>

If an object travels a distance d in a time t regardless of the direction, the average speed is the quotient of the distance over the time:

$\displaystyle V=\frac{d}{t}$

It's known a person runs d=15 kilometers in t=2 hours, thus his/her average speed is:

$\displaystyle V=\frac{15\ km}{2\ h}$

Calculating:

$\boxed{\displaystyle V=7.5\ km/h}$

almond37 [142]

After three half-lives have elapsed, the amount of an 8.0 g sample of a radionuclide that remains undecayed is 1.0 g.

Half-Life refers to the time it takes for half the amount of a substance to disappear or change.

The nucleus of the atoms of radioactive elements disintegrate to half their starting amounts after every Half-Life.

After three half-lives one-eight of the original atoms remain.

Therefore, after three half-lives have elapsed, the amount of an 8.0 g sample of a radionuclide that remains undecayed is 1.0 g.

A block pushed along the floor with velocity V0 slides a distance d after the pushing force is removed. a) if the mass of the bl

KengaRu [80]

Answer:

$a) \ d_2=d_1\\b) \ d_2=4d_1$

Explanation:

Assume that the distance travelled initially is d.

In order to stop the block you need some external force which is friction.

If we use the law of energy conservation:

$E_i=E_f\\\frac{mv^2}{2}= E_{Friction}\\E_{Friction}=F_{Friction}*d\\F_{Friction}= \mu_kmg\\\frac{mv^2}{2}= \mu_kmgd\\ d=\frac{v^2}{2\mu_kg}$

Looking at the formula you can see that the mass doesn't affect the distance travelled, as lng as the initial velocity is constant (Which indicates that the force must be higher to push the block to the same speed) therefore the distance is the same.

b) If the velocity is doubled, then the distance travelled is multiplied by 4, because the distance deppends on the square of the velocity.
