Answer:

The magnitude of the acceleration is 1.2 × 10⁴ mi/h²

Explanation:

Hi there!

The acceleration is defined as the change in velocity in a time:

a = Δv / Δt

Where:

a = acceleration.

Δv = change in velocity  = final velocity - initial velocity.

Δt = elapsed time.

In this case:

Initial velocity = 60 mi/h

final velocity = 50 mi/h

elapsed time = 3.0 s

Let´s convert the time unit into h:

3.0 s · 1 h /3600 s = 1/1200 h

Now, let´s calculate the acceleration:

a = Δv / Δt

a = (50 mi/h - 60 mi/h) / 1/1200 h

a = -1.2 × 10⁴ mi/h²

The magnitude of the acceleration is 1.2 × 10⁴ mi/h²

A helium ion of mass 4m and charge 2e is accelerated from rest through a potential difference V in vacuum. Its final speed will
Pavel [41]

Answer:

Final Velocity = √(eV/m)

Explanation:

The Workdone, W, in accelerating a charge, 2e, through a potential difference, V is given as a product of the charge and the potential difference

W = (2e) × V = 2eV

And this work is equal to change in kinetic energy

W = Δ(kinetic energy) = ΔK.E

But since the charge starts from rest, initial velocity = 0 and initial kinetic energy = 0

ΔK.E = ½ × (mass) × (final velocity)²

(Velocity)² = (2×ΔK.E)/(mass)

Velocity = √[(2×ΔK.E)/(mass)]

ΔK.E = W = 2eV

mass = 4m

Final Velocity = √[(2×W)/(4m)]

Final Velocity = √[(2×2eV)/4m]

Final Velocity = √(4eV/4m)

Final Velocity = √(eV/m)

Hope this Helps!!!

Is an atom with one valence electron more reactive than an atom with two electrone? ​
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

An atom with a closed shell of valence electrons (corresponding to an electron configuration s2p6) tends to be chemically inert. An atom with one or two valence electrons more than a closed shell is highly reactive, because the extra valence electrons are easily removed to form a positive ion.Explanation:
