Speed=distance/time
distance = 10,000 m
time= 27 min 30.42s but we need to convert that completely to seconds
(27x60)+30.42= 1650.12 rounded to 1650
speed=10,000/1650.12
speed=6.059063
Because when we do sig dig we round to the least number of digits we would round to 4 because 1650.12 gets rounded to 1650
so 6.059 m/s

iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

Explanation:

Momentum conservation

m2v_0+2mv_0=mv_1+2mv_2 \quad (1/m) \quad 4v_0=v_1+2v_2\\

Kinetic energy conservation

\displaystyle \frac{1}{2}m(2v_0)^2+\frac{1}{2}2mv_0^2=\frac{1}{2}mv_1^2+\frac{1}{2}2mv_2^2 \quad (1/m) \quad 6v_0^2=v_1^2+2v_2^2

7. Explain how changes in temperature affect the particle motion of a substance. (3 points)
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

When heat is added to a substance, the molecules and atoms vibrate faster. As atoms vibrate faster, the space between atoms increases. The motion and spacing of theparticles determines the state of matter of thesubstance. The end result of increased molecular motion is that the object expands and takes up more space.
