Dr. John Paul Stapp was U.S. Air Force officer who studied the effects of extreme deceleration on the human body. On December 10

, 1954, Stapp rode a rocket sled, accelerating from rest to a top speed of 282m/s (1015km/h) in 5.00s, and was brought jarringly back to rest in only 1.40s! Calculate the magnitude of his (a) acceleration as he sped up and (b) acceleration as he slowed down. Express each in multiples of g (9.80 m/s2) by taking its ratio to the acceleration of gravity.

Answer:

acceleraions 5.76g and 20.55g

Explanation:

This constant acceleration exercise can be solved using the kinematic equations in one dimension

    Vf = Vo + a t

As part of the rest Vo = 0

    a = Vf / t

    a = 282/5

    a = 56.4 m / s2

In relation to the acceleration of gravity

    a ’= a / g = 56.4 / 9.8

    a ’= 5.76g

To calculate the acceleration to stop we use the same formula

     a2 = 282 / 1.40

     a2 = 201.4 m / s2

 This acceleration of gravity acceleration function is

     a2 ’= 201.4 / 9.8

     a2 ’= 20.55g

pav-90 [236]

Answer:

Electrons

Atomic number

Explanation:

The question describes a period table which is a chart of the elements.

The Periodic Table of elements shows the arrangement of elements based on their increasing atomic number.

In a neutral atom, the number of electrons will equal the number of protons, so we can easily determine electron number from atomic number. In addition, the position of an element in the periodic table—its column, or group, and row, or period—provides useful information about how those electrons are arranged (electronic configuration) in their different shells.

It is a way to display to number of ____electrons____ for elements. This chart will show the correlation between __atomic____ number and the number of valence electrons

Two charged balls are 10 cm apart. One is positively charged, and the other is negatively charged.
asambeis [7]

Answer:Explanation: The field lines of the electric charges extend from the positive to negative side charge. ... The force between the two charged balls is attractive. It is directly proportional to the product of their charges and inversely proportional to the magnitude of the distance between them.

iren2701 [21]

Explanation:

The geometry of the BF 3 molecule is called trigonal planar (see Figure 5). The fluorine atoms are positioned at the vertices of an equilateral triangle. The F-B-F angle is 120° and all four atoms lie in the same plane.

A particular milliampere-seconds value, regardless of the combination of milliamperes and time, will reproduce the same radiogra
finlep [7]

Answer:

C. Reciprocity law

Explanation:

The reciprocity law is based on the assumption that the density or blackening of a photographic film is dependent merely on the exposure or quantity of radiant energy which the film absorbs and is independent of the rate at which the energy is applied.

This law pertains to the milliampere-seconds in the sense that all combinations of milliamperes and time  that amount to an equal quantity will produce the same amount of radiographic density.

The answer is:

C. Reciprocity law
