<span>240,000 miles / hour² Average acceleration can be calculated by dividing the change in speed by the elapsed time. Since the dragster's speed was 0 when the light turned green, the change in speed is simply 300 mph. Now, divide that by the time: 300 mph / 0.00125 hours = 240,000 miles / hour² By the way, 0.00125 hours is just 4.5 seconds!</span>

Answer:

The acceleration of the dragster is 29.80m/s²

Explanation:

Acceleration is defined as the change in velocity of a body with respect to time.

Acceleration = Change in velocity/Time

Given the velocity = 300miles/hour

Time = 0.00125hours

Converting the time to seconds and velocity to meter/seconds

Since 1hour = 3600seconds

Time = 0.00125×3600

Time = 4.5seconds.

For velocity:

1hour = 3600seconds

1mile = 1609.343m

300miles/hour = (300×1609.343m)/1×3600sec

= 482,803.2m/3600secs

= 134.112m/s

Acceleration in m/s² = 134.112/4.5

Acceleration = 29.80m/s²

Three point charges, two positive and one negative, each having a magnitude of 20 C are placed at the vertices of an equilateral
Daniel [21]

The resultant force on the positive charge  is mathematically given as

X=40N

<h3>What is the magnitude of the electrostatic force on the negative charge?</h3>

Question Parameters:

Three-point charges, two positive and one negative, each having a magnitude of 20

Generally, the -ve charge   is mathematically given as

Q+=\sqrt{x^2+x^2+2x.xcos120}\\\\Q+=\sqrt{2x^2+2x*(1/2)}

Q+=X

Therefore

x=\frac{Kq1q2}{r2}\\\\x=\frac{9*10^9*20*10^{-6}*20*10^{-6}}{(30*10^-2)^2}

X=40N

Which statement about the dark nebulae is true?(A) They can be penetrated only with shorter waves, such as UV and x-ray.(B) They
TiliK225 [7]

Answer: (B) They can be penetrated only with longer wavelengths such as radio and infrared.

Explanation:

A dark nebula is a type of interstellar cloud with such a high density that it "hides" the light of the background stars.

It should be noted that these nebulae are composed mostly of hydrogen (the star's primary fuel), and the absence of light (in the visible range of the electromagnetic spectrum) is caused by the interstellar solid dust that constitutes the cloud, which is why they are also called absorption nebulae.

However, <u>if powerful telescopes that detect at long wavelengths, such as infrared and X-rays, it is possible to observe through these nebulae and even observe the existence of young stars.</u>
