It is because they cannot be divided. Everything is made up of atoms and they are the building blocks of every piece of matter.

A car travels eastwards at 60km/h for 2h, then travels northwards at 20km/h for 8h. Find,

sveta [45]

Answer:

$a) Average\ Speed=28\ km/h\\b) Average\ Velocity= 20\ km/h$

Explanation:

$We\ are\ given\ that,\\Velocity\ of\ the\ car\ Eastwards=60\ km/h\\Time\ taken\ by\ the\ car\ Eastwards=2\ h\\Velocity\ of\ the\ car\ Northwards=20\ km/h\\Time\ taken\ by\ the\ car\ Northwards=8\ h\\Hence,\\As\ we\ know\ that,\\Speed=\frac{Distance}{Time}\\Distance= Speed* Time\\Now,\ lets\ find\ the\ distance\ covered\ by\ the\ car\ in\ both\ the\ cases.$

$Hence,\\Distance\ Covered\ During\ its\ Eastward\ Journey=60*2=120\ km\\Distance\ Covered\ During\ its\ Northward\ Journey=20*8=160\ km\\Now,\\As\ we\ know\ that\ Average\ Speed=\frac{Total\ Distance}{Total\ Time} \\Here,\\Total\ distance\ of\ the\ car=Distance\ Covered\ During\ its\ Northward\ Journey+Distance\ Covered\ During\ its\ Eastward\ Journey\\Hence,\\Total\ distance\ of\ the\ car=120+160=280\ km\\Total\ time\ taken\ by\ the\ car=8+2=10\ hours\\Hence,\\$ $Average\ Speed\ Of\ the\ Car\ throughout\ its\ journey=\frac{280}{10}=28\ km/h$

$Now,\\For\ Average\ Velocity\ we\ need\ to\ consider\ displacement\ as:\\Average\ Velocity\ =\frac{Total\ Displacement}{Total\ Time} \\Now,\\As\ we\ already\ know\ that\ displacement\ is\ the\ shortest\ distance\\ from\ the\ initial\ to\ the\ final\ point.\\We\ observe\ that, \\The\ car\ forms\ a\ right\ triangle\ during\ its\ complete\ journey.\\Hence,\\As\ we\ already\ know\ that,\\Distance\ travelled\ Eastwards= 120\ km\\Distance\ travelled\ Northwards= 160\ km\\Hence,\\$ $We\ may\ apply\ Pythagoras\ Property\ to\ find\ the\ net\ displacement.\\Hence,\\a^2+b^2=c^2\\120^2+160^2=c^2\\14400+25600=c^2\\40000=c^2\\c=\sqrt{40000}\\c=200\\Hence,\\Total\ displacement=200\ km\\Total\ Time\ taken=2+8=10\ hours\\Hence,\\Average\ Velocity\ Of\ the\ Car=\frac{200}{10}=20\ km/h$

Answer:

B.7.5m/s2

Explanation:

average acceleration=change invelocity/time taken

a=(60-30)/4

=7.5m/s2

A scientist is trying to determine the identity of an element. It is highly reactive to water and forms an ionic bond with chlor

wel

The answer is noble gas. Since noble gas are constant and unreactive. They can still shape compounds with other elements.
Group 15 is also group 5A and Group 17 is also group 7A. Elements in these sets do not typically form ionic bonds; they are more on creating covalent bonds since they're non-metals.
Therefore, that leaves us with B. from Group 1. They are metals (but Hydrogen) which respond violently with water, and they form ionic bonds, for they drop outer electrons easily.

Which of the following objects is accelerating?

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

Explanation:

Constant speed (without change in direction) is not accelerating. If you are slowing down, speeding up, or changing direction, you are accelerating
