Answer:

Vector

Explanation:

Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity. As velocity is a vector quantity, so acceleration is also a vector quantity.

If a car starts from rest and attains some velocity after some time, then car is accelerating and the firection of acceleration is same as the direction of velocity.

If a car is moving and after applying the brakes it come to rest it means the motion of car has negative acceleration which means the direction of velocity and the direction of acceleration is opposite to each other.

Acceleration is a vector because it has magnitude and direction

Example :
a Car stopping at the rate of 5 m/s. In this example, the direction of acceleration is the opposite of the direction of velocity, and the magnitude is 5 m/s

Hope this helps

Discuss the chemical bond exist in silicon crystal?​
tamaranim1 [39]
Covalent bonds. Silicon, carbon, germanium, and a few other elements form covalently bonded solids. In these elements there are four electrons in the outer sp-shell, which is half filled. ... In the covalent bond an atom shares one valence (outer-shell) electron with each of its four nearest neighbour atoms.

Answer:

5.714 hours / day

Explanation:

<u>Calculate the hours used in that week </u>

120000 / 3000 = 120 / 3 = 40 hours a week

<u>Calculate the amount it is used in one day</u>

40 / 7 = 5.71428571 hours or 5.714 hours/day

A person is lying on a diving board 2.00 m above the surface of the water in a swimming pool. She looks at a penny that is on th
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

7.98 m

Explanation:

In the given question,

distance above surface= 2 m

Distance penny from person = 8 m

Since the swimming pool is filled with water and atmosphere has air therefore the refractive index phenomenon will occur.

The refractive index of water: air is 4/3 (1.33).

Using the formula, 4/3 = real depth, apparent depth

real depth= 4/3 x apparent depth

Now, calculating apparent depth = 8 - 2

= 6 m

therefore, real depth =  4/3 x apparent depth

= 1.33 x 6

= 7.98

thus, 7.98 m is the real depth of water.
