Answer:

Time, t = 12 minutes

Explanation:

It is given that,

A cyclist rides 16.0 km east, then 8.0 km west, then 8.0 km east, then 32.0 km west, and finally 11.2 km east. Let west direction is negative and east direction is positive. The displacement of the cyclist is :

d=16-8+8-32+11.2=-4.8\ km

d = 4800 m

Let us assumed that the average speed of the cyclist is, v = 24 km/h = 6.66667 m/s

Let t is the time taken by the cyclist to complete the trip. The velocity of an object is given by :

v=\dfrac{d}{t}

t=\dfrac{d}{v}

t=\dfrac{4800\ m}{6.66667\ m/s}

t = 719.99 seconds

t = 720 seconds

or

t = 12 minutes

So, the time taken by the cyclist to complete the trip is 12 minutes. Yes, the time taken by the cyclist to complete the trip is reasonable. Hence, this is the required solution.

Which scientist described an atom made of a solid positively charged substance with electrons dispersed throughout it?.
swat32

The scientist that described an atom made a solid positively charged substance with electrons dispersed throughout it was: Ernest Rutherford

In 1911 Ernest Rutherford proposed his atomic model in which he considered the atom as a positively, densely charged center called a nucleus in which the electrons circulate around the core with a negative charge.

<h3>What is an atom?</h3>

The atom is the smallest part of the composition of matter, it is indivisible and is composed of a nucleus that has protons and neutrons, and around the nucleus there are the electrons.

Big bang theorists believe that the universe is expanding and will eventually contract.
Zina [86]

The statement ‘Big bang theorists believe that the universe is expanding and will eventually contract’ is false. The answer is letter B. The big bang theory suggests that the origin of the universe began with that exploded and expanded. It also states that the universe began in a single form of high condensed reactive matter and exploded forming the galaxies, planets, stars and other celestial bodies.

What is the most appropriate SI unit to express the speed of a cyclist in a 10-km race? km/s cm/h km/h mm/s
Murljashka [212]
You sure wouldn't want something like cm/s or (yikes cm/hr). You want a reasonable number for sports usually between 0 and 100

Km / hour would be a good choice.

The next town to where I live is 25 km away. On a good day, I can make it there in about 3/4 of an hour.

Speed = 25 km / 0.75 hour = 33.3 km/hour. That's actually a little fast most of the time. But you should understand what I mean.

Why can’t solids flow
Annette [7]

Answer:

basically they have too much mass in them

Explanation:

They are held tightly together by strong forces of attraction. They are held in fixed positions but they do vibrate. Because the particles don't move, solids have a definite shape and volume, and can't flow. Because the particles are already packed closely together, solids can't easily be compressed.
