Answer:

d. H216O

Explanation:

Hello,

Water is a chemical compound which has two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom.In solid state, it is ice where as in gas state, it is steam.Hydrogen and oxygen atoms in water molecule form polar covalent bonds formed through hydrogen bonding. Oxygen has three isotopes to remember ; H2160, H2180 and H2170. Sea water for example has approximately 99% H2160 and less than 0.5% H2180.

Evaporating waters releases more H2160 to the atmosphere than H2180.In areas where polar ice takes time to melt, the oceans are contantly depleted of H2160 until it melts to return to the water bodies and maintain balance.This shows that the water molecules that exists in greatest abundance is H2160.

ch4aika [34]

The cart's acceleration to the right after the mass is released is determined as 7.54 m/s².

<h3>Acceleration of the cart</h3>

The acceleration of the cart is determined from the net force acting on the mass-cart system.

Upward force = Downward force

ma = mg

13a = 10(9.8)

13a = 98

a = 98/13

a = 7.54 m/s²

Thus, the cart's acceleration to the right after the mass is released is determined as 7.54 m/s².

Based on the graph, describe how momentum changes with time for an object in free fall. If you can help, I would be so grateful.

With time, momentum increases as it builds speed assuming their is nothing in the way to stop it. Based on the graph, you can see that example being displayed as the line on the graph gets higher

An elevator together with its passengers weights 5000 N. At a certain instant, the tension in its supporting cable is 6000 N. De

gayaneshka [121]

We have to forces acting on the system (elevator+passengers):
1) The weight (W=5000 N), acting downward
2) The cable's tension (T=6000 N), acting upward
So, the two forces have opposite direction. The resultant (in upward direction) will be
$F=T-W$
And for Newton's second law, the resultant of the forces acting on the system causes an acceleration on the system itself, given by
$a= \frac{F}{m}$
where m is the mass of the system.

So, we need to find F and m.
The resultant of the forces is
$F=T-W=6000 N-5000 N=1000 N$
To find m, we can use the weight of the system. In fact, the weight of an object is given by
$W=mg$
where $g=9.81 m/s^2$ . Solving for m, and using W=5000 N, we find
$m= \frac{W}{g}= \frac{5000 N}{9.81 m/s^2}=510 kg$

and at this point, we can calculate the acceleration of the system (elevator+people):
$a= \frac{F}{m}= \frac{1000 N}{510 kg}=1.96 m/s^2$
and the acceleration has the same direction of the resultant force, so upward.
