Answer:

Speed: 4.8 m/s

Velocity: 4.8 m/s north

Explanation:

Definitions:

- Speed is a scalar quantity, which is equal to the ratio between distance covered (d) and time taken (t):

s=\frac{d}{t}

- Velocity is a vector quantity, whose magnitude is equal to the ratio between the displacement of the object and the time taken:

v=\frac{disp.}{t}

And it also has a direction (the same as the displacement).

In this problem:

- The object travels a distance of

d = 105 m

In a time interval of

t = 22 s

So its speed is

s=\frac{105}{22}=4.8 m/s

- The displacement of the object is the same as the distance in this case, so still 105 m, covered in a time interval of 22 s; this means that the magnitude of the velocity is the same as the speed:

v=4.8 m/s

However, velocity is a vector quantity, so it also has a direction: and since the object has moved north, the direction of the velocity is north as well.

When the valve between the 2.00-L bulb, in which the gas pressure is 2.00 atm, and the 3.00-L bulb, in which the gas pressure is
padilas [110]

Answer:

P_{C} = 3.2\, atm

Explanation:

Let assume that gases inside bulbs behave as an ideal gas and have the same temperature. Then, conditions of gases before and after valve opened are now modelled:

Bulb A (2 L, 2 atm) - Before opening:

P_{A} \cdot V_{A} = n_{A} \cdot R_{u} \cdot T

Bulb B (3 L, 4 atm) - Before opening:

P_{B} \cdot V_{B} = n_{B} \cdot R_{u} \cdot T

Bulbs A & B (5 L) - After opening:

P_{C} \cdot (V_{A} + V_{B}) = (n_{A} + n_{B})\cdot R_{u} \cdot T

After some algebraic manipulation, a formula for final pressure is derived:

P_{C} = \frac{P_{A}\cdot V_{A} + P_{B}\cdot V_{B}}{V_{A}+V_{B}}

And final pressure is obtained:

P_{C} = \frac{(2\,atm)\cdot (2\,L)+(4\,atm)\cdot(3\,L)}{5\,L}

P_{C} = 3.2\, atm

Which has greater mass of a bowling ball at rest for a rolling basketball which has greater momentum
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

The rolling basketball has greater momentum.

Explanation:

The momentum of an object is defined as the product of mass and velocity.

Given that the bowling mass has a greater mass than the basketball,

The bowling ball is at rest, so the velocity if the ball is zero.

The basketball is rolling, it has some velocity associated with it.

Therefore, the momentum of the bowling ball is zero.

The basketball has some momentum associated with it.

Hence, the rolling basketball has greater momentum.

What would the charge of an atom be if it has six protons and six electrons
disa [49]
<span>Carbon atom showing 6 protons as electro positive charge in its nuclei should have same no of -ve charged electrons , that is 6 electronns in its radii to make an atom of C as a neutral element , for that each element in its atomic state should have equal no of protons and electrons , the no of neutrons which has no electric charge and almost negligible weight does play significant role except contributes to isotopes of the given atom or an element, so C atom having 6 protons should have 6 electrons</span>
