If the motorcycle can go from 0 to 50mph in 3 seconds the person is describing the motorcycle's acceleration.

Answer:

acceleration

Explanation:

He is describing the acceleration of motorcycle.

Here the initial velocity is zero, final velocity is 50 miles / hr, time taken is 3 sec.

Convert miles per hour into metre per second.

50 miles / hr = 22.352 m/s

using first equation of motion,

v = u + a x t

a = \left ( \frac{v - u}{t} \right )

a = \left ( \frac{22.352 - 0}{3} \right )

a = 7.45 m/s^2

Explain how neutrons enable a nuclear chain reaction to take place. (2)
Volgvan

Answer:

Explanation:

In addition to the 'daughter' products, two or three neutrons also explode out of the fission reaction and these can then collide with other uranium nuclei which are unstable so these cause further fission reactions. This is known as a chain reaction .

Hope this helps

Why does conduction occur more slowly in gases than in solids?​
Nataly [62]
Onduction in gas is slower than in liquids and solids because the particles in a gas collide less often. Conduction in metals is faster because the electrons are free to move about

You have two points in a soil. Point A is at 75 cm; point B is at 25 cm above the reference. The capillary potential energy at p
user100 [1]

Answer:

The potential energy at point A is 17.1675 J

Explanation:

The capillary potential is the work expended to bring up a unit mass of liquid to a point in a capillary region from a level liquid surface. It is the capillary potential that facilitates the movement of moisture within soil capillaries

In meteorology it is used to describe the level of saturated soil above the water table

Potential energy is the energy inherent in a body by virtue of its position, therefore the potentials of both point A and B are

Point A, elevation = 75 cm capillary potential = -100 cm

Point B, elevation = 25 cm capillary potential = -200 cm

The total potential energy at point A is

Elevation above reference - capillary potential =75-(-100) = 175 cm

which gives per unit mass

PE = m × g × h = 1 kg × 9.81 m/s ² × 1.75 m = 17.1675 kg·m²/s² = 17.1675 J

A double-slit experiment uses light of wavelength 650 nm with a slit separation of 0.100 mm and a screen placed 4.0 m away. a) W
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) Slit separation d = .1 x 10⁻³ m

Screen distance D = 4 m

wave length of light  λ = 650 x 10⁻⁹ m

Width of central fringe = λ D / d

= \frac{650\times10^{-9}\times4}{.1\times10^{-3}}

= 26 mm

b ) Distance between 1 st and 2 nd bright fringe will be equal to width of dark fringe which will also be equal to 26 mm

c ) Angular separation between the central maximum and 1 st order maximum will be equal to angular width of fringe which is equal to

λ  / d

= \frac{650\times10^{-9}}{.1\times10^{-3}}

= 6.5 x 10⁻³ radian.
