I think it describes a chemical reaction in a battery involving the decomposition of water into hydrogen plus oxygen gas by electrolysis due to an electric current passing through the water and causing the dissociation of the two constituent elements. This is why water in wet cell battery can be seen to be bubbling during this process. Wet cell batteries must have water to function properly. and the water must be filled up regularly as it gets consumed.

Given that average speed is distance traveled divided by time, determine the values of m and n when the time it takes a beam of

emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

$5,2$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Speed of light $C=3.0×10^8 m/s.$

Generally the equation for Average Speed is mathematically given by

$V_{avg}=\frac{d}{t}$

Where

d=Distance between the Earth and the sun

$d=1.5*10^11m$

Therefore

$t=\frac{d}{V_{avg}}$

$t=\frac{1.5*10^11m}{3.0×10^8 m/s.}$

$t=5*10^2s$

Since m and n is given in the form of

$m*10^n$

Therefore

$m=5 & n=2$

$5,2$

If you were stuck in the center of the bridge when it was swaying, where would be the safest place to walk back to land?

Ludmilka [50]

Straight
You already have to momentum of walking forward, and going back and forth are the same distance. If you go back then you would have to stop, turn and walk, but if you go forward you just have to walk.

Which of the following is the best definition of gravity?

IRISSAK [1]

In physics, gravity is the natural force that causes things to fall toward the earth. The noun gravity can also mean seriousness or solemnity. Someone who conducts themselves with an air of gravity is someone who takes what they are doing seriously.

A 40 kg girl and an 8.4 kg sled are on the surface of a frozen lake, 15 m apart. By means of a rope, the girl exerts a 5.2 N for

stealth61 [152]

Answer:

(a) $a_s=0.62\frac{m}{s^2}$

(b) $a_s=0.13\frac{m}{s^2}$

(c) $x_f=2.6m$

Explanation:

(a) According to Newton's second law, the acceleration of a body is directly proportional to the force exerted on it and inversely proportional to it's mass.

$a_s=\frac{F}{m_s}\\a_s=\frac{5.2N}{8.4kg}\\a_s=0.62\frac{m}{s^2}$

(b) According to Newton's third law, the force that the sled exerts on the girl is equal in magnitude but opposite in the direction of the force that the girl exerts on the sled:

$a_g=\frac{F}{m_g}\\a_g=\frac{5.2N}{40kg}\\a_g=0.13\frac{m}{s^2}$

(c) Using the kinematics equation:

$x_f=x_0+v_0t \pm \frac{at^2}{2}$

For the girl, we have $x_0=0$ and $v_0=0$ . So:

$x_f_g=\frac{a_gt^2}{2}(1)$

For the sled, we have $v_0=0$ . So:

$x_f_s=x_0_s-\frac{a_st^2}{2}(2)$

When they meet, the final positions are the same. So, equaling (1) and (2) and solving for t:

$x_0_s-\frac{a_st^2}{2}=\frac{a_st^2}{2}\\t^2(a_g+a_s)=2x_0_s\\t=\sqrt{\frac{2x_s_0}{a_g+a_s}}\\t=\sqrt{\frac{2(15m)}{0.13\frac{m}{s^2}+0.62\frac{m}{s^2}}}\\t=6.32s$

Now, we solve (1) for $x_f_g$

$x_f_g=\frac{0.13\frac{m}{s^2}(6.32s)^2}{2}\\x_f_g=2.6m\\x_f=2.6m$
