A mouse runs along a baseboard in your house. The mouse's position as a function of time is given by x(t)=pt2+qt, with p = 0.36

m/s2 and q = -1.20 m/s .
Determine the mouse's average speed between t=1.0s and t=4.0s

Answer:

0.60 m/s

Explanation:

The average velocity from t = a to t = b is:

v_avg = (x(b) − x(a)) / (b − a)

Given that x(t) = 0.36t² − 1.20t, and the time is from 1.0 to 4.0:

v_avg = (x(4.0) − x(1.0)) / (4.0 − 1.0)

v_avg = [(0.36(4.0)² − 1.20(4.0)) − (0.36(1.0)² − 1.20(1.0))] / 3.0

v_avg = [(5.76 − 4.8) − (0.36 − 1.20)] / 3.0

v_avg = [0.96 − (-0.84)] / 3.0

v_avg = 0.60

The average speed is 0.60 m/s.

( Image is 6 C carbon with the numbers 12.011 under it ) According to the image, the atomic mass of carbon is 12.011. How is the
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

B. By adding the number of protons and the number of neutrons

Explanation:

The atomic mass is determined by adding the number of protons and neutrons in an atom. An atom is made up of three fundamental particles: Electrons, Protons and Neutrons.

The protons and neutrons occupy a central region in an atom known as the nucleus. The nucleus is positively charged and mass concentrated.

If we compare the relative masses of the subatomic particles, the masses of protons and neutrons would be 1 and that of an electron would be 1/1840. This shows that the mass of electrons are negligible.

In order to ascertain atomic mass, we therefore add the number of protons and neutrons together. This is how we arrive at 12.011 as the value of the atomic mass of C and for other elements.

The atomic mass is also known as the mass number.

A truck is moving with a certain uniform velocity. It is accelerated uniformly by 0.75 m/s^2. After 20 seconds , the velocity be
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

Vi = 5 m/s

Explanation:

let (a) acceleration = 0.75 m/s²

(t) time = 20 seconds

Vf = final velocity = 72 km/hr  (convert to m/s to units consistency = 20 m/s)

find Initial velocity (Vi)

       Vf - Vi

a =  -----------

             t

Vi = Vf - (a * t)  = 20 - (0.75 * 20)

Vi = 5 m/s

Describe how to measure the internal diameter of a beaker using a Vernier caliper?​
n200080 [17]

Answer:

Hope it helps..

Explanation:

Let n be the number of the vernier scale division which coincides with the main scale division. Rotate the vernier caliper 90° and repeat the steps 4 and 5 for measuring the internal diameter in perpendicular direction. To measure the depth, find the total reading and zero correction.
