Answer:

2.2386 m/s

Explanation:

I think you would use the momentum equation.

m1v1=m2v2

m1= mass of the bag (8.5kg)

v1= speed of bag (6.9 m/s)

m2= mass of bag and cart (26.2 kg)

v2= speed of cart and bag

Plug these numbers all into the equation and you solve for v2 which ends up at 2.2386 m/s

The magnitude of the electric force between two protons is 2.30 10-26 n. how far apart are they?
SCORPION-xisa [38]
The electric force between two charge objects is calculated through the Coulomb's law.
                               F = kq₁q₂/d²
The value of k is 9.0 x 10^9 Nm²/C² and the charge of proton is 1.602 x10^-19 C. Substituting the known values from the given,
                           2.30x10^-26 = (9.0 x 10^9 Nm²/C²)(1.602 x10^-19C)²/d²
The value of d is equal to 0.10 m.

A student measures the pH of a solution to be 6.8. Which should the student add if she wants to decrease the pH of the solution?
zloy xaker [14]
The neutral pH is 7. Less than 7 indicates an acid and more than 7 indicates a base (up to 14).
<span> NaCl - it's a salt (we can't measure the pH)
H2O - it can be an acid but also a base  (the pH it is almost neutral,meaning close to 7 )
HF - it is a strong acid
</span><span> KOH  - it is a strong base (pH=14)
</span>
                        ↓

He needs to use HF (Hydrogen fluoride) to decrease the pH.
