Answer:

vavg = 53.7 km/h

Explanation:

In order to find the magnitude of the bus'average velocity, we need just to apply the definition of average velocity, as follows:

vavg =\frac{xf-xo}{t-to}

where xf - xo = total displacement = 1250 Km

If we choose t₀ = 0, ⇒ t = 23h 16'= 23h + 0.27 h = 23.27 h

⇒ vavg =\frac{1250 km}{23.27h}  =  53.7 Km/h

HELP NEEDED! Determine the mechanical energy of this object: a 1-kg ball rolls on the ground at 2 m/s.
valentina_108 [34]
The mechanical energy of an object is the sum of its potential and kinetic energy.

Because the ball is on the ground, its potential energy is 0.
Its kinetic energy is given by:

K.E = 1/2 mv²
K.E = 1/2 x 1 x 2²
K.E = 2 J

Mechanical energy = 2 + 0
Mechanical energy = 2 J

The answer is B.

Calculate the number of electrons constituting one Coulomb of charge?
g100num [7]
The charge of one electron is e=1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C. In order to have 1 C of charge, we need to have N electrons such that their total charge is 1 C:
1 C = Ne
By rearranging the equation, we can easily calculate the number of electrons contained in 1 C of charge:
N= \frac{1 C}{e}= \frac{1 C}{1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C}=6.25 \cdot 10^{18}

Fiber optics are an important part of our modern internet. In these fibers, two different glasses are used to confine the light

Answer:

n_cladding = 1.4764

Explanation:

We are told that θ_max = 5 °

Thus;

θ_max + θ_c = 90°

θ_c = 90° - θ_max

θ_c = 90° - 5°

θ_c = 85°

Now, critical angle is given by;

θ_c = sin^(-1) (n_cladding/n_core)

sin θ_c = (n_cladding/n_core)

n_cladding = (n_core) × sin θ_c

Plugging in the relevant values, we have;

n_cladding = 1.482 × sin 85

n_cladding = 1.4764

joey drives his skidoo 7 kilometers north. he stops for lunch and then drives 5 kilometers east. what is his displacement?
Mekhanik [1.2K]
2 because you would subtract 7 kilometers from 5 kilometers. And you would get 2 as your DP (displacement).

Manganese-52 has a half-life of 6 days. How many days would a scientist have to wait for the radioactivity to be 12.5% the start
sineoko [7]

Answer:

Let N = N0 where N0 is the number of atoms originally present.

In 6 days    N = N0 / 2

In 12 days   N = N0 / 4

In 18 days   N = N0 / 8    = .125 N0

So it would take 18 days.
