When an element tends to lose its valence electrons in chemical reactions, it behaves more like a .

magnitude of velocity does not change but the direction changes. Can we say that it is an accelerated motion?

Olenka [21]

Answer:

MRCORRECT has answered the question

Explanation:

Since velocity is a vector, it can change either in magnitude or in direction. Acceleration is therefore a change in either speed ordirection, or both. Keep in mind that althoughacceleration is in the direction of the changein velocity, it is not always in the direction ofmotion.

How much force does it take to accelerate a 50.8 kg person at 3.50 m/s^2?

Vikki [24]

Apply Newton's second law to the person's motion:

F = ma

F = net force, m = mass, a = acceleration

Given values:

m = 50.8kg, a = 3.50m/s²

Plug in and solve for F:

F = 50.8(3.50)

F = 178N

A train leaves the train station at noon and travels at a constant speed of vt = 50 mi/hr on a straight track. 2 hr later, a car

asambeis [7]

Answer:

350 miles

Explanation:

When the car starts 2 hours later, the train would have a head start of

50 * 2 = 100 miles

The speed of the car relative to the train is

70 - 50 = 20 mi/hr

For the car to catch up with the train, it must cover the 100 miles difference at the rate of 20mi/hr. So the time it would need to cover this difference is

100 / 20 = 5 hours

After 5 hours, the car would have traveled a distance of

5 * 70 = 350 miles which is also the distance from the station to where the car catches up

Two equal, but oppositely charged particles are attracted to each other electrically. The size of the force of attraction is 48.

galina1969 [7]

Given:

The force of attraction is F = 48.1 N

The separation between the charges is

$\begin{gathered} r=\text{ 60.9 cm} \\ =\text{ 60.9}\times10^{-2}\text{ m} \end{gathered}$

Also, the magnitude of charge q1 = q2 = q.

To find the magnitude of charge.

Explanation:

The magnitude of charge can be calculated by the formula

$\begin{gathered} F=\frac{k(2q)}{r^2} \\ q=\frac{Fr^2}{2k} \end{gathered}$

Here, k is the Coulomb's constant whose value is

$k\text{ = 9}\times10^9\text{ N m}^2\text{ /C}^2$

On substituting the values, the magnitude of charge will be

$\begin{gathered} q=\frac{48.1\times(60.9^\times10^{-2})^2}{2\times9\times10^{^9}} \\ =9.91\times10^{-10}\text{ C} \\ =9.91\times10^{-4}\text{ }\mu C \end{gathered}$

Thus, the magnitude of each charge is 9.91 x 10^(-4) micro Coulombs.

A world-class sprinter running a 100 m dash was clocked at 5.4 m/s 1.0 s after starting running and at 9.8 m/s 1.5 s later. In w

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

<em>The output power is greater in the interval from 1.0 s to 2.5 s</em>

Explanation:

<u>Physical Power </u>

It measures the amount of work W an object does in certain time t. The formula needed to compute power is

$\displaystyle P=\frac{W}{t}$

Work can be computed in several ways since we are given the motion conditions, we'll use this formula, for F= applied force, x=distance parallel to F

$W=F.x$

The second Newton's law gives us the net force as

$F=m.a$

being m the mass of the object and a the acceleration it has for a given period of time. In our problem, we have two different behaviors for each interval and we must calculate this force since the acceleration is changing. Let's calculate the acceleration in the first interval. We can use the formula for the final speed vf knowing the initial speed vo (which is 0 because the sprinter starts from rest), the acceleration a, and the time t:

$v_f=v_o+at$
