Answer:

When iron rusts - in the presence of moisture and oxygen - iron-oxide is formed. Iron oxide is nothing but a compound of iron and oxygen. There is an increase in the mass of the iron equal to the mass of oxygen that has gone into forming the rust.

The speed of light is 3.00 × 108 m/s in the vacuum of space. In a medium with what index of refraction would light travel slowes
Romashka [77]

Index of refraction can be calculated using the following formula:

n=\frac{c}{v}

where c=3 \times 10^8 \frac{m}{s} in a vacuum and "n" is the index of refraction.  So we must calculate our velocity by manipulating the index of refraction formula and isolate v and so:

v=\frac{c}{n}

We could go one by one and calculate the velocity or use logic.  If you divide by a larger number the output will be a smaller number.  Therefore, the answer would be n=1.62 is the slowest.

v=\frac{3 \times 10^8 \frac{m}{s}}{1.62}= 1.85185 \times 10^8 \frac{m}{s}

By that logic when n=1 light would travel the fastest of these four scenarios.  The key thing to understand about these problems is that the speed of light slows down as it goes through a medium, in a vacuum it's 3 x 10^ 8 m/s but as it goes through say air or water light slows down.

A zebra starts from rest and accelerates at 1.9 m/s2 what will be the acceleration after 5 seconds
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

d = 23.75 m

The zebra has gone 23.75m after 5 seconds.

Corrected question;

A zebra starts from rest and accelerates at 1.9 m/s2. How far has the zebra gone after 5 seconds.

Explanation:

From the equation of motion;

d = vt + 0.5at^2 .........1

Where;

d = displacement

v = initial velocity = 0

t = time taken= 5 seconds

a = acceleration = 1.9 m/s^2

Substituting the given values into equation 1;

d = 0(5) + 0.5(1.9×5^2)

d = 0.5(1.9×5^2)

d = 23.75 m

The zebra has gone 23.75m after 5 seconds.

What are the movements of boiling water? I'm looking for if they speed up, like that sort of thing. Not how, not why, just what
fgiga [73]
When a substance is heated, the molecules begin to vibrate faster and the space between molecules increases. So it would be speeding up.

When mapping the equipotentials on the plates with different electrode configurations you may find that some have significant ar
Olenka [21]

Answer:

v = 10 V and E = 2 10³ N/C

Explanation:

The electrical potentials and the electric field at one point are related by the expression

            ΔV = - ∫ E. dS

Where the bold indicates vector quantities, E is the electric field and S is the line of displacement of the load, in general displacement is perpendicular to the equipotential lines, which reduces the product scales to the ordinary product.

 If the potential difference is the most usual that is V = 10 V, the electric field is

   s = 0.5 cm = 0.5 10⁻² m

                E = ΔV / S

                E = 10/0.5 10⁻²

                 E = 2 10³ N / C
