Answer:

4.245s

Explanation:

Given that,

Hypothetical value of speed of light in a vacuum is 18 m/s

Speed of the car, 14 m/s

Time given is 6.76 s, and we're asked to find the observed time, T

The relationship between the two times can be given as

T = t / √[1 - (v²/c²)]

The missing variable were looking for is t, and we can find it if we rearrange the formula and make t the subject

t = T / √[1 - (v²/c²)]

And now, we substitute the values and insert into the equation

t = 6.76 * √[1 - (14²/18²)]

t = 6.76 * √[1 - (196/324)]

t = 6.76 * √(1 - 0.605)

t = 6.76 * √0.395

t = 6.76 * 0.628

t = 4.245 s

Therefore, the time the driver measures for the trip is 4.245s

The compound PCl5 decomposes into Cl2 and PCl3. The equilibrium of PCl5(g) Cl2(g) + PCl3(g) has a Keq of 2.24 x 10-2 at 327°C. W
nordsb [41]
Take note of the reaction formula which is PCl5=Cl2+PCl3.
The Keq = [Cl2] * [PCl3] / [PCl5]=2.24*10^-2.
For the reason that the volume is 1 liter, the concentration of Cl2 will be computed through: <span>(2.24 * 10^-2) * 0.235 / 0.174 </span> = 0.0303 mol/L is the answer.

What is the Scientific definition of friction?
seropon [69]
Friction<span> is the resistance to motion of one object moving relative to another. It is not a fundamental force, like gravity or electromagnetism. Instead, scientists believe it is the result of the electromagnetic attraction between charged particles in two touching surfaces.
Hope this is of great help to you, and happy studying~!

The atom in the diagram has a neutral charge how many protons does it have
Olegator [25]

Explanation:

This should be of help:

An atom is made up of three subatomic particles:

  • Protons are the positively charged particles.
  • Electrons are the negatively charged particles.
  • Neutrons do not carry any charges.

A neutral atom is an atom that has not lost or gained any amount of electrons.

In a neutral atom;

                the number of protons and electrons are the same

 Usually atoms are designated this way:

                                                  ᵃₙX

  where X is the symbol of the atom

               a is the mass number of the atom

                n is the atomic number of the atom

 The mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons

        Atomic number = number of protons

Note; atomic number is the same as the number protons and the number of electrons in a neutral atom.

An airplane starts from rest at the end of a runway and accelerates at a constant rate. In the first second, the airplane travel
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

v=4.44\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

Given that the airplane starts from the rest (this is initial velocity equals to zero)  and accelerates at a constant rate, position can be described like this: x=v_{0}t +\frac{1}{2} at^{2} where x is the position, t is the time a is the acceleration and v_{0} is initial velocity. In this way acceleration can be found. a=\frac{2(x-v_{0}t) }{t^{2} } =\frac{2(1.11m-0)}{1s^{2} } =2.22\frac{m}{s^{2} }.

Now we are able to found velocity at any time with the formula: v=v_{0} +at = 0\frac{m}{s} +(2.22\frac{m}{s^{2}}.2s)=4.44\frac{m}{s}
