For an object starting from rest and accelerating with constant acceleration, distance traveled is proportional to the square of

the time. if an object travels 2.0 furlongs in the first 2.0 s, how far will it travel in the first 4.0 s?

The problem states that the distance travelled (d) is directly proportional to the square of time (t^2), therefore we can write this in the form of:

d = k t^2

where k is the constant of proportionality in furlongs / s^2

 

<span>Using the 1st condition where d = 2 furlongs, t = 2 s, we calculate for the value of k:</span>

2 = k (2)^2

k = 2 / 4

k = 0.5 furlongs / s^2

The equation becomes:

d = 0.5 t^2

 

Now solving for d when t = 4:

d = 0.5 (4)^2

d = 0.5 * 16

<span>d = 8 furlongs</span>

<span>
</span>

<span>It traveled 8 furlongs for the first 4.0 seconds.</span>

Sedaia [141]

Complete Question

Suppose you have three identical metal spheres, A, B, and C. Initially sphere A carries a charge q and the others are uncharged. Sphere A is brought in contact with sphere B, and then the two are separated. Spheres CC and BB are then brought in contact and separated. Finally spheres AA and CC are brought in contact and then separated. What is the final charge on the sphere B, in terms of q?

a. 3/8q

b. 1/4q

c. 3/4q

d. q

e. 5/8q

f. 1/3q

g.1/2q

h. 0

Answer:

   The correct option is b

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

          The charge carried by A is  q C

           The charge carried by B is 0 C

            The charge carried by C is 0 C

When A and B are brought close and then separated the charge carried by  A and B is mathematically evaluated as

                 \frac{ 0 + q}{2} =   \frac{q}{2}

When C and B are brought close and then separated the charge carried by  C and B  is mathematically evaluated as    

                    \frac{0 + \frac{q}{2} }{2}  = \frac{q}{4}

When C and A are brought close and then separated the charge carried by  C and A  is mathematically evaluated as  

                       \frac{\frac{q}{4} +  \frac{q}{2} }{2}   = \frac{3q}{8}

Looking at these calculation we can see that the charge carried by B is

        \frac{q}{4} C

A mole of water molecules would just about fill a
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

B. tablespoon

Explanation:

Considering the question given, a mole of water is small compare to the options given from the question aside the table spoon.

A mole of water is just 18g and that's equivalent to 18 mL.

18 mL of water will fill a table spoon but not a cup which is about 237mL. The wheel barrow and gallon bucket have larger volumes of which 18 mL of water will never fill them.

So, a mole of water can successfully fill a table spoon.
