You are traveling on the interstate highway at a speed of 65 mph. What is your speed in km/h? The conversion factor is: 1.0 mph=

1.6 km/h.

You have to cross multiply. So set up the equation like 1.6/x = 1/65 then multiply x by 1 and 1.6 by 65. The answer is 104 km/h.

The magnitude of the electrostatic force between two identical ions that are separated by a distance of 5.0A is 3.7×10^-9N.a) wh

jeyben [28]

Explanation:

Given that,

Electrostatic force, $F=3.7\times 10^{-9}\ N$

Distance, $r=5\ A=5\times 10^{-10}\ m$

(a) $F=\dfrac{kq^2}{r^2}$ , q is the charge on the ion

$q=\sqrt{\dfrac{Fr^2}{k}}$

$q=\sqrt{\dfrac{3.7\times 10^{-9}\times (5\times 10^{-10})^2}{9\times 10^9}}$

$q=3.2\times 10^{-19}\ C$

(b) Let n is the number of electrons are missing from each ion. It can be calculated as :

$n=\dfrac{q}{e}$

$n=\dfrac{3.2\times 10^{-19}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}$

n = 2

Hence, this is the required solution.

ear the end of a marathon race, the first two runners are separated by a distance of 45.0 m. The front runner has a velocity of

sesenic [268]

Answer:

a) $V_{2/1}=0.8m/s$

b) The second runner will win

c) d = 10.54m

Explanation:

For part (a):

$V_{2/1} = V_{2} - V_{1} = 0.8m/s$

For part (b) we will calculate the amount of time that takes both runners to cross the finish line:

$t_{1} = \frac{X_{1}}{V_{1}}=\frac{250}{3.45}=72.46s$

$t_{2} = \frac{X_{2}}{V_{2}}=\frac{250+45}{4.25}=69.41s$

Since it takes less time to the second runner to cross the finish line, we can say the she won the race.

For part (c), we know how much time it takes the second runner to win, so we just need the position of the first runner in that moment:

X1 = V1*t2 = 239.46m Since the finish line was 250m away:

d = 250m - 239.46m = 10.54m
