What is acceleration measured in?

Physics

Calculating acceleration involves dividing velocity by time — or in terms of units, dividing meters per second [m/s] by second [s]. Dividing distance by time twice is the same as dividing distance by the square of time. Thus the SI unit of acceleration is the meter per second squared.





This I what it showed when I looked it up so if your writing this down try and put some in your own words

Acceleration is measured in (distance) per (unit of time) squared; for example, feet/second squared. in the SI (metric) system the official unit is metres/second/second or metres/(second squared).

What are non metals<br><br>​
Lisa [10]

Answer:

In chemistry, a nonmetal (or non-metal) is a chemical element that mostly lacks the characteristics of a metal. Physically, a nonmetal tends to have a relatively low melting point, boiling point, and density. ... Metalloids such as boron, silicon, and germanium are sometimes counted as nonmetals

What are the three major types of severe weather? Describe at least two characteristics of each type
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

High winds, hail, excessive precipitation, and wildfires are forms and effects of severe weather, as are thunderstorms, downbursts, tornadoes, waterspouts, tropical cyclones, and extratropical cyclones. Regional and seasonal severe weather phenomena include blizzards (snowstorms), ice storms, and duststorms.

Explanation:High winds-  wind speeds as low as 23 knots (43 km/h) may lead to power outages when tree branches fall and disrupt power lines. Once wind exceed 135 knots (250 km/h) within strong tropical cyclones and tornadoes, homes  completely collapse,  and significant damage is done to larger buildings. Total disruption occurs once wind exceeds 175 knots (324 km/h)

Tornado- Typically look like a narrow funnel reaching from the clouds to the ground. Their wind speed goes from 65 to 250 miles per hour.

"An extreme weather condition in which we face the high speed wind in combination with heavy snow."

As for any blizzard has the normal wind speed of about 40 mph, and the visibility range reduces to less then 500 ft.

An electron is traveling at 0. 85c. what is its mass? (the rest mass is 9. 11 × 10-31 kg. )
egoroff_w [7]

The mass of the electron is 1.72\times 10^{-30} Kg.

<h3>How can we calculate the mass of the electron?</h3>

To calculate the mass of the electron we are using the formula,

m=\frac{m_{0} }{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^{2} }{c^{2} } } }

Here we are given,

m_0=The rest mass of an electron =  9. 11 \times 10^{-31} kg.

v= The velocity of electron =  0. 85c.

c= The velocity of light = c.  (c=3\times 10^8 m/s)

We have to found the mass of an electron = m Kg.

Now we substitute the known values, we found that,

m=\frac{9. 11 \times 10^{-31} }{\sqrt{1-\frac{(0.85c)^{2} }{c^{2} } } }

Or,m=\frac{9. 11 \times 10^{-31} }{\sqrt{1-(\frac{0.85c}{c})^2 } }

Or,m=\frac{9. 11 \times 10^{-31} }{\sqrt{1-({0.85})^2 } }

Or, m=1.72\times 10^{-30} Kg.

From the above calculation we can conclude that, The mass of the electron is 1.72\times 10^{-30} Kg.
