Answer:

v = 658.82 km/h

Explanation:

The distance between New York and London is 5.6\times 10^3\ km

Time taken from New York to London is 8.5 hours

We need to find the average speed of the plane.

Total distance covered divided by the total time taken is equal to the average speed of an object. So,

v=\dfrac{d}{t}\\\\v=\dfrac{5.6\times 10^3\ km}{8.5\ h}\\\\v=658.82\ km/h

So, the average speed of the plane is 658.82 km/h.

During which phase change does the arrangement of water molecules become more orderly?
KatRina [158]

How many grams of mercury would be contained in 15 compact fluorescent light bulbs?
zhenek [66]

Answer:

Grams of mercury= 0.06 g of Hg

Note: The question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows:

A compact fluorescent light bulb contains 4 mg of mercury. How many grams of mercury would be contained in 15 compact fluorescent light bulbs?

Explanation:

Since one fluorescent light bulb contains 4 mg of mercury,

15 such bulbs will contain 15 * 4 mg of mercury = 60 mg

1 mg = 0.001 g

Therefore, 60 mg = 0.001 g * 60 = 0.06 g of mercury.

Compact fluorescent lightbulbs (CFLs) are tubes containing mercury and noble gases. When electricity is passed through the bulb, electron-streams flow from a tungsten-coated coil. They collide with mercury atoms, exciting their electrons and creating flashes of ultraviolet light. A phosphor coating on the inside of the tube absorbs this UV light flashes and re-emits it as visible light. The amount of mercury in a fluorescent lamp varies from 3 to 46 mg, depending on lamp size and age.

cupoosta [38]
To form a salt compound, the acid contribute a NON METAL ION  and the base contributes a METAL ION.
In chemistry, acid and base react together to form salt and water only. For the salt formed, the positive metal ion comes from the base while the negative non metal ion comes from the acid.
