Assign a positive velocity to the red box and negative velocity to the blue box. Are they moving in opposite direction?

Physics
1 answer:
attashe74 [19]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

<em>Yes, they are moving in opposite direction one to the other.</em>

Explanation:

Velocity is a vector quantity, which means that it has both magnitude and direction. The magnitude shows the size of the velocity, and the direction shows which way it is moving in reference to a chosen reference direction. If the red box is assigned a positive velocity, and the blue box is assigned a negative velocity, as indicated in the question, then it means that the red box, and the blue box, both move in opposite direction to the other.

6. An object accelerates from rest to 70 m/s in 3.5 s. What is the acceleration of the object?
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

The acceleration of the object is 20 meters per second square = 20 m/s^2

Explanation:

Recall that acceleration is defined as the change in velocity divided the time it takes for the change. Therefore , if the object accelerates from rest (zero velocity) to 70 m/s , the change in velocity is (70 m/s - 0 m/s = 70 m/s)

which divided by the 3.5 seconds it took for the change, gives:

acceleration = (70 m/s  /  3.5 s ) = 20  m/s^2

Addition of _____________ to pure water causes the least increase in conductivity. A) weak bases B) acetic acid C) ionic compoun
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Water in itself is a bad conductor of electricity. Any compound that dissociates in water into ions and charged molecules, will increase conductivity of water. In this case ionic compounds weak basis and acids will put in free ions into the water. The ions can pass electricity because they are attracted to respective poles of electricity depending on their charges. In water, these ions are free moving unlike when they are immobilized in their lattice in solid form.

Organic compounds are mainly made of covalent bonds (around carbon) hence do not dissociate in water.

3) Magnets are used to separate steel cans from aluminum cans in recycling plants. How can
Elden [556K]

Answer:

Since steel contains iron (a magnetic metal), the magnets will attract the steel cans since aluminum is not magnetic. This is used to separate the steel cans from the aluminum cans so they can be recycled separately.
