Answer:

7.59 m/s

Explanation:

Kinetic Energy: This is defined as the energy possessed by a body due to its motion. The S.I unit of kinetic energy is Joules (J).

Mathematically, kinetic energy is represented as,

Ek = 1/2mv²................................ Equation 1

Where Ek = Kinetic Energy, m = mass, v = velocity.

From the question,

Kinetic energy of the rabbit = Kinetic energy of the setter

1/2m₁v₁² = 1/2m₂v₂².......................... equation 2

Where m₁ = mass of the rabbit, v₁ = velocity of the rabbit, m₂ = mass of the setter, v₂ = velocity of the setter.

making v₁ the subject of the equation

v₁ = v₂√(m₂/m₁)............................ Equation 3

Given: m₁ = 5.0 kg, m₂ = 12.0 kg, v₂ = 4.9 m/s.

Substituting into equation 3

v₁ = 4.9√(12/5)

v₁  = 4.9√2.4

v₁ = 4.9×1.549

v₁ = 7.59 m/s

Thus the rabbit is 7.59 m/s fast

Hydrogen gas is generated when acids come into contact with certain metals. When excess hydrochloric acid reacts with 2.2 g of (
CaHeK987 [17]

To solve the problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Byle's Law and Avogadro's Law.

The ideal gas equation would help us find the final solution to the problem, defined by

PV = nRT

Where,

T= Temperature of the gas

R = Universal as constant

n = number of moles

V = Volume

P = Pressure

For our case we have that the mass of Zn is 2.2g in moles would be

[tex]Zn = \frac{2.2}{65}[/tex]

Zn = 0.0338

We know that 1 mole of hydrogen gas is proceed by 1 mole of zinc and the result is Zn^{2+}, then Hydrogen can produce the same quantity,

H_2 = 0.0338

Applying the previous equation we have that

V= \frac{nRT}{P}

V = \frac{0.0338*0.08206*293.15}{0.98}

V = 0.829L

Therefore the volume of hydrogen gas is collected is 0.829L

A car has a momentum of -456 kg*m/s. What direction is it moving?
Solnce55 [7]

backward movement

because momentum = mass × speed

And mass must be in positive value..

so negative value is speed

which moving backward..
