A = 1.15m/s2, Vf = 80.0km/h --> we need it in m/s, so:
Vf = 80km/h × 1000m/1km × 1h/3600s
= 22.22m/s
Top speed = Vf, initial speed = Vi
time (t) = V(Vf-Vi) ÷ a
t = (22.22-0)m/s ÷ 1.15m/s2
t = 22.22m/s × s2/1.15m
= 19.32 seconds

A rolling ball has an initial velocity of 1.6 meters per second. if the ball has a constant acceleration of 0.33 meters per seco
lukranit [14]
We have:

Initial velocity (u) = 1.6 m/s
Constant acceleration (a) = 0.33 m/s²
Time (t) = 3.6 sec

There are five constant acceleration equations that would help us to find the velocity:

v=u+at
s=ut+ \frac{1}{2}at^2
s= \frac{1}{2}(u+v)t
v^2=u^2+2as
s=vt- \frac{1}{2}at^2

Since we have u, a, t and we want v
We will use the first formula v=u+at

v=1.6+(0.33)(3.6)
v= 2.788 m/s

A sample of a gas has a volume of 639 cm3 when the pressure is 75.9 kPa. What is the volume of the gas when the pressure is incr
const2013 [10]

Answer:

388 cm^3

Explanation:

For this problem, we can use Boyle's law, which states that for a gas at constant temperature, the product between pressure and volume remains constant:

pV=const.

which can also be rewritten as

p_1 V_1 = p_2 V_2

In our case, we have:

p_1 = 75.9 kPa is the initial pressure

V_1 = 639 cm^3 is the initial volume

p_2 = 125 kPa is the final pressure

Solving for V2, we find the final volume:

v_2 = \frac{p_1 V_1}{p_2}=\frac{(75.9)(639)}{125}=388 cm^3

Basalt, formed from magma, contains iron-rich minerals. Why is this important?
Svetach [21]
Iron is a magnetic metal, and it is essential to the Earth's magnetic field!
Essentially it "records" (stores the information, maintains) the direction and orientation of the magnetic field.

Among others, the magnetic field protects the Earth from dangerous cosmic rays.
