Answer:

0.0196 Joules

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is half the product of mass and velocity squared.

K.E=0.5 m*v^2; The m is the mass in kilograms and v is the velocity in meters per second.

We will convert grams to kilograms:

2.45 grams = 0.00245 kilograms.

Calculating kinetic energy:

mass:0.00245 kg

velocity:4 m/s

K.E = 0.5 *0.00245*4^2 = 0.0196 Joules.

Softa [21]

Answer:

Car 1

Explanation:

The steering column which moves the least is less likely to to the driver's chest ordinarily. Driver tends to remain in motion until restrained. Assuming a  seat belt not airbag

Generally one would compute a vector find direction and distance.  This is like solving for a hypotenuse  / in a right angled triangle problem. On face value the column moving the least is safer. The 6/24 would hit the upper chest, face, or possibly break the neck.

hence, car 1 moved 3 cm upward and 2 cm rearward is safer.

About how long does it take ocean water to travel around a gyre?
mylen [45]
The Gulf Stream, for example, has an average speed of 4 mph, or 100 miles/day, or 3600 miles/year, in round numbers. A complete circuit around the Atlantic is 8 or 10 thousand miles, which would take around 3 years on a raft.

Match these items. 1. Ca 6 proton 2. H 2O 3 fission 3. nuclear decay 7 element 4. nuclear synthesis 8 electron 5. η atomic numbe
Gnesinka [82]

1. Ca → Element

2. Proton → positive

3. H2O → compound

4. Fission → nuclear decay

5. Fusion → Nuclear synthesis

6. η → Neutron

7. e → electron

8. Atomic number → no of protons in nucleus.

Explanation

1. Ca (Calcium):

Calcium is an element with the atomic number of 20. It is an alkaline earth metal. The 99% of calcium is found in our bodies, in bones, teeth.

2. Proton:

Proton is a subatomic particle and it holds the positive charge. Proton is present in the nucleus of the atom.

3. H2O (water):

Water is a chemical compound and it's chemical formula is H2O. It's called compound as it contains 2 hydrogen and 1 oxygen atoms bonded together through the covalent bond.

4. Fission:

Fission is a process in which large massive unstable nucleus splits into the smaller, less heavier and stable nuclei. The energy is re;eased in the form of radiations during this process. It's called as the radioactive decay.

5. Fusion:

Fusion is opposite of the fission reaction. As in this case the two nuclei combines to form a single large nucleus. That's why it is a nuclear synthesis process.

6. η neutron:

Neutron is a subatomic particle and it is a neutral particle which is located inside the nucleus. n is a symbol used for the neutron.

7. e Electron:

The symbol for electron is e. It's a subatomic particle with negative charge. It is found in the orbits around the nucleus.

8.  Atomic Number:

Atomic number is defined as the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom. IT is represented by Z.

10) If the mass 2m, the left mass
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

F = \frac{-Gm_{1}m_{2} }{r^{2} }.

Explanation:

Gravitational force between two objects of masses m_{1},  m_{2} kept at a distance r is given by the formula

F = \frac{-Gm_{1}m_{2} }{r^{2} }

Here ,m_{1} = 2m

         m_{2} = \frac{m}{2}

         

Thus , F = \frac{-G.2m.\frac{m}{2} }{r^{2} }

          F = \frac{-Gm_{1}m_{2} }{r^{2} }.
