If he's falling in a straight line and his speed is not changing, that tells you that his acceleration is zero.

And THAT tells you that the forces on him are balanced, the net force acting on him is zero, and his motion is the same as it would be if there were NO force acting on him.

irina [24]

Answer:

a = 15.1 g

Explanation:

The relation between mass and acceleration is given by :

m\propto \dfrac{1}{a}

If a₁ = 0.80g, m₁ = 1510 kg, m₂ = 80 kg, we need to find a₂

So,

\dfrac{m_1}{m_2}=\dfrac{a_2}{a_1}\\\\a_2=\dfrac{a_1m_1}{m_2}\\\\a_2=\dfrac{0.8g\times 1510}{80}\\\\a_2=15.1g

So, the car's acceleration would be 15.1 g.

Suppose your salary in 2012 is $70,000. Assuming an annual inflation rate of 7%, what salary do you need to earn in 2020 in orde
s2008m [1.1K]

Annual salary(2012) = $70,000

Annual inflation = 7%

Therefore, the salary you need to earn in 2020 in order to have the same purchasing power can be calculated below

2020-2012=8\text{ years}FV=PV\times(1+r)^n

where

n = 8

r = 7/100 = 0.07

PV = 70, 000

\begin{gathered} FV=70,000(1+0.07)^8 \\ FV=70000(1.07)^8 \\ FV\text{ = 70000}\times1.71818617983 \\ FV=120273.032588 \\ FV=\text{  \$}120,273.03 \end{gathered}

The salary you need to earn in 2020 to have the same purchasing power = $120, 273.03

Which nuclei is not radioactive? <br> A. Am-241<br> B. Mg-24<br> C. Pu-241<br> D. U-238
Helen [10]

Hello!

Which nuclei is NOT radioactive?

A) Am-241 B) Mg-24 C) Pu-241 D) U-238

Solving:

It is noteworthy that chemical elements located on the periodic table in the lanthanide and actinide groups are radioactive.  

Am-241 (americium) belongs to the group of actinides and is a heavy and radioactive metal.  

Mg-24 (magnesium) is an essential element for the body, mainly for the nervous system, in addition to synthesizing proteins and serves for hormonal control, belongs to the group of alkaline earth metals and is a non-radioactive nucleus.

Pu-241 (plutonium) is an element that is isotope of fission by plutonium, belongs to the group of actinides and is a heavy and radioactive metal.  

U-238 (uranium) is an element that is isotope of non-fission uranium, belongs to the group of actinides and is a heavy and radioactive metal.

Answer:

B) Mg-24
