If Shirley pushes one end of a desk to the right with a force of 12.0N and anfernee pushes the desk at the same time to the left

with a force of 19.0N and the desk has a mass of 4.50kg. What is the net force on the desk?

The net force does not depend on the mass.

We have 12N to the right, and 19N to the left.
The net force is (19.0-12.0)N=7.0N to the left.

If you run at an average speed of 10mi/h how long will it take for you to run 2.5miles

givi [52]

Answer:

If the avg speed is 10mi/h and you want to know how long it will take to run 2.5mi/h you put that as a ratio 2.5/10 which is 1/4 of an hour so it will take 15 minutes to run 2.5 miles

You throw a bouncy rubber ball and a wet lump of clay, both of mass m, at a wall. Both strike the wall at speed v, but while the

Answer:

<em>The fifth option is the correct answer: mv; 2 mv</em>

Explanation:

<u>Change of Momentum</u>

Assume an object has a momentum p1 and after some interaction it now has a momentum p2, the change of momentum is

$\Delta p=p_2-p_1$

The momentum is computed as

$p=mv$

Where m is the mass of the object and v its speed. Now let's analyze the situation of both the ball and the clay.

The clay has an initial speed v and a mass m, thus its initial momentum is

$p_1=mv$

When it hits the wall, it sticks, thus its final speed is 0 and

$p_2=0$

The change of momentum is

$\Delta p=0-mv=-mv$

The absolute change is mv

Now for the ball, the initial condition is the same as it was for the clay, but the ball hits back at the same speed, thus its final momentum is

$p_2=-mv$

The change of momentum is

$\Delta p=-mv-mv=-2mv$

The absolute change is 2mv

The fifth option is the correct answer: mv; 2 mv

What is the half-reaction that occurs at the cathode during the electrolysis of molten potassium bromide?

polet [3.4K]

The complete ionization of KBr into its constituents is:<span>
<span>KBr (s) ---> K+ (aq) + Br- (aq)</span></span>

<span>
During electrolysis, oxidation takes place at the anode electrode. This means that an ion is stripped off its electron hence becoming more positive:
<span>2 Br- (aq) ---> Br2 (g) + 2e- </span></span>

We can see that Bromine gas Br2 is evolved at the anode.

<span>
<span>Meanwhile at the cathode, the reduction reaction occurs. Which means that the electron from the anode electrode is used to make an ion more negative:
<span>2K+ (aq) + 2e- ---> 2K (s) </span></span>
Hence, through reduction, solid potassium is deposited on the plate.</span>

Half reactions:

<span>Anode: 2 Br- (aq) ---> Br2 (g) + 2e- </span>

<span>Cathode: 2K+ (aq) + 2e- ---> 2K (s) </span>

A plane travels 395,000 meters in 9,000 seconds. What was its speed?

sladkih [1.3K]

When a plane travels 395,000 meters in 9,000 seconds its speed is 395,000 ÷ 9000 = 43.888888 (the 8 repeats) meters per second.
