<span>Taking into account the information above, we know the average mass of the bucket of water may be m=20-5/2=17.5kg. As the bucket of water is pulled at a "constant velocity" the work required to raise the bucket to the platform transformed into the potential energy of the bucket of water. That is why it should be W=mgh=17.5*9.8*40=6860J</span>

What is the car's average velocity (in m/s) in the interval between t = 1.0 s<br> to t = 1.5 s?
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

1.4 m/s

Explanation:

From the question given above, we obtained the following data:

Initial Displacement (d1) = 0.9 m

Final Displacement (d2) = 1.6 m

Initial time (t1) = 1.5 secs

Final time (t2) = 2 secs

Velocity (v) =..?

The velocity of an object can be defined as the rate of change of the displacement of the object with time. Mathematically, it can be expressed as follow:

Velocity = change of displacement /time

v = Δd / Δt

Thus, with the above formula, we can obtain the velocity of the car as follow:

Initial Displacement (d1) = 0.9 m

Final Displacement (d2) = 1.6 m

Change in displacement (Δd) = d2 – d1 = 1.6 – 0.9

= 0.7 m

Initial time (t1) = 1.5 secs

Final time (t2) = 2 secs

Change in time (Δt) = t2 – t1

= 2 – 1.5

= 0.5 s

Velocity (v) =..?

v = Δd / Δt

v = 0.7/0.5

v = 1.4 m/s

Therefore, the velocity of the car is 1.4 m/s

An atom of a certain element has 36 protons, 36 electrons, and a mass number of 84. At room temperature, this element is a very
Grace [21]

Answer:

12 neutrons

Explanation:

The number of protons also shows the atomic number. Therefore the element in question is Krypton (Kr), which also is a noble gas.

Neutrons = Mass number - protons - electrons

Here neutrons = 84 - 36 - 36 = 12

22. State any three features of the electroscope.​
MatroZZZ [7]
-1- was created in the 1600 by william gilbert
-2-When the charge is positive, electrons in the metal of the electroscope are attracted to the charge and move upward out of the leaves. This results in the leaves to have a temporary positive charge and because like charges repel, the leaves separate. When the charge is removed, the electrons return to their original positions and the leaves relax
3-

An electroscope is made up of a metal detector knob on top which is connected to a pair of metal leaves hanging from the bottom of the connecting rod. When no charge is present the metals leaves hang loosely downward. But, when an object with a charge is brought near an electroscope, one of the two things can happen.
