Answer: d. congruent sides

Explanation:

The distance formula is a formula in geometry to calculate the length of a line segment having two distinct point on a Cartesian plane

The distance formula to calculate the distance between two distinct points A(a,b) and B(p,q) is given by :-

$\text{d}=\sqrt{(p-a)^2+(q-b)^2}$

Since it is used to calculate the distance between two points therefore, it is used to check whether a quadrilateral has congruent sides.

Hence, the distance formula can be used to prove a quadrilateral has <u>congruent sides</u>.

A piece of wood that floats on water has a mass of 0.0175 kg. A lead weight is tied to the wood, and the apparent mass with the

crimeas [40]

Answer:

Specific gravity is 0.56

Explanation:

We know that

mass of water displaced by the wood is, m1( apparent mass when wood in air and lead is submerged in water) - m2(the apparent mass when wood and lead both are submerged in water)

= 0.0765 - 0.0452 = 0.0313 Kg

So the specific gravity of the wood is, = mass of wood / mass of water displaced by the wood

= 0.0175/0.0313

=0.56

What is the equation for net force

ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

Is to add all forces, for example either the gf = gravitational force

Ff= force fiction

Fn= normal force

Thus, fg + ff + fn = y will give you results

Well then the forces you use in your exercises or questions.

An atom of carbon has a radius of 67.0 pm and the average orbital speed of the electrons in it is about 1.3 x 10⁶ m/s.

adoni [48]

Answer :

The least possible uncertainty in an electron's velocity is, $4.32\times 10^{5}m/s$

The percentage of the average speed is, 33 %

Explanation :

According to the Heisenberg's uncertainty principle,

$\Delta x\times \Delta p=\frac{h}{4\pi}$ ...........(1)

where,

$\Delta x$ = uncertainty in position

$\Delta p$ = uncertainty in momentum

h = Planck's constant

And as we know that the momentum is the product of mass and velocity of an object.

$p=m\times v$

or,

$\Delta p=m\times \Delta v$ .......(2)

Equating 1 and 2, we get:

$\Delta x\times m\times \Delta v=\frac{h}{4\pi}$

$\Delta v=\frac{h}{4\pi \Delta x\times m}$

Given:

m = mass of electron = $9.11\times 10^{-31}kg$

h = Planck's constant = $6.626\times 10^{-34}Js$

radius of atom = $67.0pm=67.0\times 10^{-12}m$ $(1pm=10^{-12}m)$

$\Delta x$ = diameter of atom = $2\times 67.0\times 10^{-12}m=134.0\times 10^{-12}m$

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

$\Delta v=\frac{6.626\times 10^{-34}Js}{4\times 3.14\times (134.0\times 10^{-12}m)\times (9.11\times 10^{-31}kg)}$

$\Delta v=4.32\times 10^{5}m/s$

The minimum uncertainty in an electron's velocity is, $4.32\times 10^{5}m/s$

Now we have to calculate the percentage of the average speed.

Percentage of average speed = $\frac{\text{Uncertainty in speed}}{\text{Average speed}}\times 100$

Uncertainty in speed = $4.32\times 10^{5}m/s$

Average speed = $1.3\times 10^{6}m/s$

Percentage of average speed = $\frac{4.32\times 10^{5}m/s}{1.3\times 10^{6}m/s}\times 100$

Percentage of average speed = 33.2 % ≈ 33 %

Thus, the percentage of the average speed is, 33 %
