Ling lives 2 miles from school. It took him 15 minutes to bike from school to home. The first half of the distance he biked at a

speed of 12 mph. What was his speed for the remaining distance
Physics
1 answer:
Fittoniya [83]4 years ago
3 0

Explanation:

As we know that

time = distance/speed

The time used for firs half of the trip was

(1 mi)(12 mi/hour) = 1/12 hours = 5 minutes

The last half of the trip will took 10 minutes, 1/6 hour.

Speed = distance/ time

(1 mil) = (1/6h) = 6 mil/h

so the speed for last half of the trip was = 6mph

the average speed was

(2mil)(1/4 hour) = 8 mil/hour

So the ling's average speed was 8mph.

How does the nuclear charge relate to the energy of the 1s orbital?
nlexa [21]

Explanation:

Effective nuclear charge is defined as he net positive charge experienced by an electron in an atom. It is termed "effective" because the shielding effect of electrons prevents higher orbital electrons from experiencing the full nuclear charge of the nucleus due to the repelling effect of inner-layer electrons.

The 1s is the closest shell to the nucleus of an therefore maximum nuclear charge is experienced. The formula for effective nuclear charge is:

Zeff = Z – S

where

Z = the number of protons in the nucleus, and

S = the shielding constant, the average number of electrons between the nucleus and the electron.

Hence, the energy required to remove an electron from the 1s orbital is the strongest.

A machine exerts a 100 N force to the right over a 5.00 meter length in 4.00 seconds. Calculate the power output of this machine
bixtya [17]

125 W is the power output of this machine.

Answer:

Explanation:

Power is defined as the amount of work done on the system to move that system from its original state within the given time interval. So it can be determined by the ratio of work done with time interval. As work done is the measure of force required to move a system to a certain distance. Work done is calculated as product of force with displacement.

So in the present case, the force is given as 100 N, the displacement is given as 5 m and the time is given as 4 s, then power is

Power = \frac{Work done}{Time}

As Work done = Force acting on the machine × Displacement

So Power = \frac{(Force * Displacement)}{Time}

Power = \frac{(100*5)}{4}=125 W

So, 125 W is the power output of this machine.

If a 12 kg cat is sitting 5 m up in a tree, how much PE does it have?
Helen [10]

Answer:

588 J

Explanation:

PE (potential energy) = (mass) x (gravity) x (height)

mass = 12 kg

gravity = 9.8m/s^2

height = 5 m

PE = (12) x (9.8) x (5) = 588 J (Joules)

What are the advantage of so unit​
jeka94

Answer:

The greatest advantage of SI is that it has only one unit for each quantity (type of measurement). This means that it is never necessary to convert from one unit to another (within the system) and there are no conversion factors for students to memorize.

A beam of light passes from air into a cube of zirconium if the angle of incidence is 40”what is the angle of refraction ?
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

50 degrees

Explanation:

Usually in physics in solving such questions refractive index of air is taken as 1.00 (n=1.00) by assuming that air is a vacuum. Hence, the light ray passes from water to air at an angle of incident of 40 degrees, it means that it has angle of 50 degrees to the normal line.
