Average velocity of car= 100 km/h south.

Explanation:

displacement of car=- 200 km (negative because car is moving south)

time= 2 hours

average velocity= Total displacement/ total time

average velocity=-200/2

average velocity= -100 km/h

thus the average velocity of car is 100 km/h south

Answer:

1. Motion

2. Empty space

3. Far apart

4. Independently

5. Random or rapid

6. Collision

7. Kinetic energy

8. Atmospheric

9. 273 Kelvin or 0° Celsius

10. 1 atm, 101.3 kPa or 760 mmHg

Explanation:

In science, matter can be defined as anything that has mass and occupies space. Any physical object that is found on earth is typically composed of matter. Matter are known to be made up of atoms and as a result has the property of existing in states.

Generally, matter exists in three (3) distinct or classical phases and these are;

I. Gas.

II. Solid.

III. Liquid.

Filling the missing words or texts in the question, we have;

The kinetic theory describes the motion of particles in matter and the forces of attraction between them. The theory assumes that the volume occupied by a gas is mostly empty space, that the particles of gas are relatively far apart, move independently of each other, and are in constant random or rapid motion. The collision between particles are perfectly elastic so that the total kinetic energy remains constant. Gas pressure results from the simultaneous collisions of billions of particles with an object. Barometers are used to measure atmospheric pressure. Standard conditions are defined as a temperature of 273 Kelvin or 0° Celsius and a pressure of 1 atm, 101.3 kPa or 760 mmHg.

9) Of all the types of light the Sun gives off, it emits the greatest amount of light at visible wavelengths of light. If the Su

erastova [34]

Answer:

* most of the emission would be in the infrared part, the visible radiation would be very small.

*total intensity of the semition decreases that the intensity depends on the fourth power of the temperature

Explanation:

The radiation emitted by the Sun is approximately the radiation of a black body, if the Sun were to cool, the maximum emission wavelength changes

λ T = 2,898 10⁻³

λ = 2,898 10⁻³ / T

if the temperature decreases the maximum wavelength the greater values are moved, that is to say towards the infrared. Therefore the emission curve also moves, in this case most of the emission would be in the infrared part, the visible radiation would be very small.

Furthermore, the total intensity of the semition decreases that the intensity depends on the fourth power of the temperature according to Stefan's law

A slanted vector has a magnitude of 41 N and is at an angle of 23 degrees north of east. What are the magnitude and direction of

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

The horizontal component is 37.74 N to east

The vertical component is 16.02 N to North

Explanation:

Any slant vector has two components

→ Horizontal component = R cos Ф

→ Vertical component = R sin Ф

→ R is the magnitude of the vector

→ Ф is the direction of the vector with positive part of the horizontal axis

A slanted vector has a magnitude of 41 N and is at an angle of 23

degrees north of east

23° north of east means the angle between the vector and the

east direction is 23° (east is the positive horizontal direction)

That means R is 41 N and Ф is 23°

→ R = 41 N , Ф = 23°

→ The horizontal component = 41 × cos(23) = 37.74 N east

→ The vertical component = 41 × sin(23) = 16.02 N North

The horizontal component is 37.74 N to east

The vertical component is 16.02 N to North

for the same type of atom with 8 protons, 9 neutrons, and 10 electrons, what type of atom or ion is it

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

O²⁻

Explanation:

Number of protons = 8

Number of neutrons = 9

Number of electrons = 10

What type of atom or ion is it = ?

Solution:

Protons are the positively charged particle in an atom

Neutrons do not carry any charges

Electrons are negatively charged particles

For this atom, the number of protons helps to identify what specie it is; so this is an oxygen atom.

Now,

Charge = Number of protons - Number of electrons

Charge = 8 - 10 = -2

The charge on the atom is -2 and so it is an oxygen ion with -2 charge

The ion is O²⁻
