Answer:32.77\ mi/hr

Explanation:

Given

Initially Reading on the odometer is 31,500\ miles

Final reading on the odometer is 31,713\ miles

Time taken is t=6.5\ hr

average velocity =\dfrac{\text{Displacement}}{\text{time}}

v_{avg}=\dfrac{31713-31500}{6.5}

v_{avg}=\dfrac{213}{6.5}

v_{avg}=32.77\ mi/hr

Thus the average velocity of mail truck is 32.77\ mi/hr

Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

The velocity is 60 km/hr.

Explanation:

<h3><u>Given:</u></h3>

Displacement (d) = 480 km = 48000 m

Time (t) = 8 Hours = 480 minute

Velocity (v) = ?

Now,

Velocity = Displacement ÷ Time

v = d/t

v = 480/8

v = 60 km/hr

Thus, The velocity is 60 km/hr.

A car ends up colliding with a tree. Compare the force the car exerts on the tree with the force the tree exerts on the car.
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer: The force will exert into the tree causing it to absorb the compact hit by the car which means the car gets damaged severely but the tree maybe only has a tiny crack. Mark me as Brainliest! :)

Suppose that the velocity (in meters per second) of a sky diver falling near the Earth's surface is given by the following expon
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

4.7 s

Explanation:

The complete question is presented in the attached image to this solution.

v(t) = 61 - 61e⁻⁰•²⁶ᵗ

At what time will v(t) = 43 m/s?

We just substitute 43 m/s into the equation for the velocity of the diver and solve for t.

43 = 61 - 61e⁻⁰•²⁶ᵗ

- 61e⁻⁰•²⁶ᵗ = 43 - 61 = -18

e⁻⁰•²⁶ᵗ = (18/61) = 0.2951

In e⁻⁰•²⁶ᵗ = In 0.2951 = -1.2205

-0.26t = -1.2205

t = (1.2205/0.26) = 4.694 s = 4.7 s to the nearest tenth.

Hope this Helps!!!

Why would Sodium(Na) and Chlorine (CI) want to form a lonic Bond?
miskamm [114]

Answer: to achieve a stable octet of electrons in their outer shell

Explanation:

- Sodium (Na) has an atomic number of 11, and an electronic configuration of 1s2, 2s2 2p6, 3s1.

- Chlorine (CI) Sodium (Na) has an atomic number of 17, and an electronic configuration of 1s2, 2s2 2p6, 3s2 3p5.

Hence, sodium donates its single valence electron to chlorine, thereby achieving a stable octet structure of 1s2, 2s2 2p6 while chlorine accept the single electron also forming a stable octet structure of 1s2, 2s2 2p6, 3s2 3p6. Therefore, the reaction yields NaCl, an ionic compound with ionic (electrovalent) bond.

Na + Cl --> NaCl

Thus, Sodium(Na) and Chlorine (CI) want to form a lonic Bond because both acheive a completely filled outermost shell (octet structure)
