Answer:

option B

−1.92 m/s2

Explanation:

Given in the question,

time took by truck to slow down = 3.56 sec

initial speed of truck = 112 km/h

final speed of truck = 87.4 km/h

1 km/h = 0.277778 m/s

112 = 31.1 m/s

87.4 = 24.28 m/s

Formula use to calculate the acceleration

v - u = at

where v is final speed

u is initial speed

a is acceleration

t is time

plug values in the equation

24.28 - 31.1 = a(3.56)

-6.8 = a(3.56)

a = -6.8 / 3.56

a = -1.9 m/s²

The forces that hold different atoms or ions together are

denis23 [38]

Answer:

Chemical bonds

Explanation:

The chemical bonds hold the different type atoms or ions together.

The type of chemical bonds :

1. Ionic bond ;

Ions or atoms changes the electron and form ionic bond.Those atoms gains the electron gets negative charge and those atoms donate the electron gets positive charge.

2.Covalent bond :

In this type of bond atoms share the electrons and form covalent bonds.

3. Metallic bond :

This type of bond are present in the metals.In this atoms are used free electrons to form bonds.

Therefore answer is --

Chemical bonds

In odd nuclei, what determines the final spin of the nucleus?

Katen [24]

Answer:

In odd nuclei, the left out proton or neutron will contribute to the spin of the nucleus.

Explanation:

The meaning of odd nuclei is atomic mass is odd.

A=odd number.

A=Z+n

Here, Z is proton either it will odd or n will odd which is neutron.

Now according to the shell model the left out proton or neutron will contribute to the spin and parity.

For example,

Take the case of isotope of nitrogen-15.

Here Z is 7, and n is 8 will not contribute in spin.

Now, for Z=7.

$1S^{2} _{\frac{1}{2} }, 1P^{4} _{\frac{3}{2} }, 1P^{1} _{\frac{1}{2} }$

Here,

$j=\frac{1}{2}$

and, L=1.

Fort parity,

$(-1)^{L}$

Put the value of L.

Parity will be -1.

Now, spin will be

$S=(\frac{1}{2} )^{-1}$ .

The animation shows a ball which has been kicked upward at an angle. Run the animation to watch the motion of the ball. Click in

sergejj [24]

Answer:

The acceleration of the ball is $a_y = - 0.3672 \ m/s^2$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The maximum height the ball reachs is $H_{max} = 42.24 \ m$

The horizontal component of the initial velocity of the ball is $v_{ix} = 5.57 \ m/s$

The vertical component of the initial velocity of the ball is $v_{iy} = = 16.18 m/s$

The vertically motion of the ball can be mathematically represented as

$v_{fy}^2 = v_{iy} ^2 + 2 a_{y} H_{max}$

Here the final velocity at the maximum height is zero so $v_{fy} = 0 \ m/s$

Making the acceleration $a_y$ the subject we have

$a_y = \frac{v_{iy} ^2}{2H_{max}}$

substituting values

$a_y = - \frac{5.57^2}{2* 42.24}$

$a_y = - 0.3672 \ m/s^2$

The negative sign shows that the direction of the acceleration is in the negative y-axis
