Sheila weighs 60 kg and is riding a bike. Her momentum on the bike is 340 kg • m/s. The bike hits a rock, which stops it complet
Vikki [24]

Answer:

v₂ = 5.7 m/s

Explanation:

We will apply the law of conservation of momentum here:

Total\ Initial\ Momentum = m_{1}v_{1} + m_{2}v_{2}\\

where,

Total Initial Momentum = 340 kg.m/s

m₁ = mass of bike

v₁ = final speed of bike = 0 m/s

m₂ = mass of Sheila = 60 kg

v₂ = final speed of Sheila = ?

Therefore,

340\ kg.m/s = m_{1}(0\ m/s) + (60\ kg)v_{2}\\v_{2} = \frac{340\ kg.m/s}{60\ kg}\\\\

<u>v₂ = 5.7 m/s </u>

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.

Convection occurs when thermal energy is transferred by the movement of _______
mina [271]

Answer:

Convection occurs when thermal energy is transferred by the movement of fluid particles.

Explanation:

Transfer of heat energy by the movement of fluid particles is called convection. Convection takes place in liquids and gases due to kinetic energy. When heat is provided to liquids and gases they expand and move faster.

Molecules with higher kinetic energy become less dense and rise up to the surface of liquid, whereas molecules with lower energy move towards the bottom. This up and down movement of molecules causes convection currents in fluids.

A car is moving at a rate of 72 km/hr .How far does car move when it stop after 4 seconds? ​
Zanzabum

Answer:

Assuming it starts at 72 kmph and hits a dead stop: Divide 72 by 60 for distance per minute. So, 1.2km per minute. 1.2km is 1200m and 4 seconds is one fifteenth of a minute.
