Scientists in a test lab are testing the hardness of a surface before constructing a building. Calculations indicate that the en

tire structure would sink by a certain amount for every additional floor that is added. If the maximum permissible limit for depression of the structure is 20 centimeters, how many floors can be safely added to the building?

Write the first equation of motion. Under what condition(s) is this equation valid?​
Zepler [3.9K]

Explanation:

The first equation of motion in kinematics is given by :

v=u+at .....(1)

u is initial speed

a is acceleration

v is final speed

t is time

Equation (1) is valid when the object is moving with constant acceleration. This equation gives relation between velocity and time.

The 1350-kg car has a velocity of 24 km/h up the 8-percent grade when the driver applies more power for 18 s to bring the car up
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall apply concept of impulse to solve the problem  .

Impulse = force x time

impulse = change in momentum

force x time = change in momentum

initial speed u = 24 km/h = 6.67 m /s

final speed v = 65 km/h = 18.05 m /s

change in momentum = m v - mu

= m ( v-u )

= 1350 ( 18.05 - 6.67 )

= 15363 kg m/s

F x 18 = 15363

F = 853.5 N .

11) Which statement about covalent bonds is true? A) Covalent bonds are generally weaker than ionic bonds because they form full
Cerrena [4.2K]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

C) Covalent bonds are generally weaker than ionic bonds because they overlap electrons to fill their outer shell.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>Covalent bond is a type of bond that results from the sharing of electrons between two non-metal atoms. </u></em>
  • <em><u>Ionic bond on the other is a type of bond that results from the transfer of electrons between metal atoms and non metal atoms, where a metal atom looses electrons and a non-metal atom gains electrons.</u></em>
  • <em><u>The amount of energy required to break an given bond determines how strong a particular bond is.</u></em> Ionic bonds require more energy to break as compared to covalent bond and therefore they are stronger than the covalent bonds.

Near Earth, the density of protons in the solar wind (a stream of particles from the Sun) is 12.5 cm-3, and their speed is 564 k
morpeh [17]

Answer:

A) 11.28 x 10^(7) A.m²

B) 2.258 x 10^(17)A

Explanation:

A) The current density is given by the formula ;

J = nqv

Where n is the density of protons in the solar wind which is 12.5 cm³ or 12.5 x 10^(-6) m³

q is the proton charge which is 1.6 x 10^(-19) C

v is velocity which is 564km or 564000m

Thus, J = 12.5 x 10^(-6) x 1.6 x 10^(-19) x 564000 = 11.28 x 10^(7) A.m²

B) the formula for the total current the earth received is given as;

I = JA

The effective area is the cross section of the earth and thus,

Area = πr² where r is the radius of the earth given as: 6.371 x 10^(6)

A = π(6.371 x 10^(6)) ²

So I = 11.28 x 10^(7) x π(6.371 x 10^(6))² = 2.258 x 10^(17)A
