<span> Let,
initial velocity = v m/sec,

Angle, x = 40 degrees,

horizontal-componant = v.cos(x) = 12 m/sec,
OR,
v = 12 / cos(40) = 12/0.766 = 15.67 meters/sec >================< ANSWER </span> Source(s): Fazaldin A <span> · 4 years ago </span>

Answer:

Magnitude of initial velocity = Vi = 15.7 m/s

Explanation:

Horizontal component of velocity = Vi × Cosθ = 12   ……….. (i)

Where,  

θ  = Angle at which ball is thrown above the horizontal = 40 degrees  

Put θ = 40 degrees in equation (i),

Vi × Cos(40)= 12

Vi = 12/ Cos(40)

Vi = 12/0.766

Vi = 15.66 m/s

Vi = 15.7 m/s

SpyIntel [72]
1) <span>The function of the electron transport chain is to pump protons in the mitochondrion inter-membrane, thus building up a proton gradient. This gradient will allow the ATP syntheses</span><span>.</span>

2) Why we need oxygen for the electron transport chain:
 At the end of the electron transport chain is the Oxygen that will accept electrons and picks up protons to form water. If the oxygen molecule is not there the electron transport chain will stop running, and ATP will no longer be produced. Basically, we need the oxygen to produce more ATP.

Help me, this is my last question pls.

If resultant force on the body is 0 the acceleration will also be 0.​

<h3>What is acceleration?</h3>

The term "acceleration" refers to the change in velocity with time. We must also recall that force is the product of mass and acceleration. If that is so, we can write; F = ma.

Now, we are told that the force on the body is zero so making the acceleration the subject of the formula; a = 0/mand a = 0.

Hence,  if resultant force on the body is 0 the acceleration will also be 0.​

Hi:) why do metals have free electrons? anyone able to explain the conduction part as well? Thanks!
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Metals have free electrons due to the bonding in metallic substances.

In a metal there are strong attractive forces between the nuclei and the valance electrons.

Positively charged metal nuclei form a lattice (a cube like structure) each metal atom provides one or more valance electrons <u>that are free to move throughout the lattice</u> The electrons are attracted to the positively charged nuclei but not one individual nuclei, this is called non-directional bonding since it occurs in all directions.

Now all metals are conductive becuase of the free to move (delocalised) electrons. Since the valance electrons are free to move throughout the lattice they are able to carry a charge. (Ionic solids cannot since the ionic solids form a tightly packed lattice with cations and anions which have no free moving electrons, electrons have to be able to move to carry a charge)
