Start with 2,000 grams.
After 1 half-life, 1,000 grams are left.
After another half-life, 500 are left.
After another half-life, 250 are left.
After another half-life, 125 are left.

That was FOUR half-lifes.

X = 4 .

Naily [24]

Answer:

using a formula

average velocity=total displacement/total time

average velocity=120/1minute40sec

1minute=60sec

60sec+40sec=120sec

average velocity=120m/120sec

average velocity=1m/sec

when a constant force acts upon an object the acceleration of the object varies inversely with its mass. when a certain constant
solong [7]

Explanation:

When a constant force acts upon an object the acceleration of the object varies inversely with its mass.

a\propto \dfrac{1}{m}

or

\dfrac{a_1}{a_2}=\dfrac{m_2}{m_1}

If m₁ = 21 kg, a₁ = 3 m/s², m₂ = 9 kg

We need to find a₂

So,

a_2=\dfrac{m_1a_1}{m_2}\\\\a_2=\dfrac{21\times 3}{9}\\\\a_2=7\ m/s^2

So, if mass is 9 kg, its acceleration is 7 m/s².

A 0.05-kg car starts from rest at a height of 0.95 m. Assuming no friction, what is the kinetic energy of the car when it reache
prohojiy [21]
Considering conservation of mechanical energy we have:
K+U (start)= K+U (end)
Where:
K=kinetic energy=\frac{1}{2}m v^{2}
U=potential energy=mgh
So:
0.05*0.95*9.81+0 (start) = 0+K (end)
K (end)=0.5 Joules
