If you traveled one mile at a speed of 100 miles per hour and another mile at a speed if 1 mile per hour, your average speed wou
Semenov [28]

Answer:

v = 1.98 mph

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed to travel one mile is 100 mph

Speed to travel another mile is 1 mph

The formula used to find your average speed is given by :

v=\dfrac{2v_1v_2}{v_1+v_2}

Putting the values, we get :

v=\dfrac{2\times 100\times 1}{100+1}

v = 1.98 mph

So, yours average speed is 1.98 mph.

1. Which of the following statements best describes matter?
Rashid [163]

Answer:

Matter is anything that has mass

Explanation:

The word "matter" refers to anything that has mass, either organic or inorganic. Matter is made up of atoms, which consists of a nucleus (made up of protons, positively charged, and neutrons, electrically neutron) and electrons which revolve around the nucleus.

The number of protons in the atom determine the element: there are more than 100 different elements in nature, with different properties depending on the number of electrons they have.

Matter can be in three different states also:

- solid: the atoms are tightly bond to each other, so they cannot move

- liquids: atoms are not bond to each other, so they can slide past each other, but still they have some intermolecular forces that keep them close to each other

- gas: atoms are free to move, as there are no forces that keep them close to each other

Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

Acceleration, a=9.91\times 10^{15}\ m/s^2

Explanation:

It is given that,

Separation between the protons, r=3.73\ nm=3.73\times 10^{-9}\ m

Charge on protons, q=1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C

Mass of protons, m=1.67\times 10^{-27}\ kg

We need to find the acceleration of two isolated protons. It can be calculated by equating electric force between protons and force due to motion as :

ma=\dfrac{kq^2}{r^2}

a=\dfrac{kq^2}{mr^2}      

a=\dfrac{9\times 10^9\times (1.6\times 10^{-19})^2}{1.67\times 10^{-27}\times (3.73\times 10^{-9})^2}      

a=9.91\times 10^{15}\ m/s^2

So, the acceleration of two isolated protons is 9.91\times 10^{15}\ m/s^2. Hence, this is the required solution.
