If average acceleration is calculated using the equation, “change in velocity / change in time,” what is an objects acceleration
harina [27]

Answer:

Acceleration of object=8cm/s^{2}

Explanation:

Given:-

Velocity (v)=24 cm/s

Time (t)=3 s

To calculate acceleration (a) of object=?

Now,

acceleration =\frac{velocity}{time}

a=\frac{v}{t}

a=\frac{24}{3}

a=8 cm/s^{2}

Therefore object acceleration =8cm/s^{2}

An initially electrically neutral conducting sphere is placed on an insulating stand. A negatively-charged glass rod is brought
balu736 [363]

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer

Explanation:

It is known that when a neutral object comes in contact with a charged object then an opposite charge develops on the neutral object. But this development of charge occurs only when both the objects come in contact and if they are not in contact with each other then there occurs no charge on the neutral object.

As in the given situation, negatively-charged glass rod is brought near, but does not touch the sphere. So, there will occur no charge on the sphere.

Thus, we can conclude that final charge on the sphere is neutral.

A football player runs from his own goal line to the opposing team's goal line, returning to his forty-yard line, all in 22.4 s.
Bumek [7]
I assume L=120 yards as the length of the football field.

1) The average speed is given by the total distance covered by the player divided by the time taken.
The total distance covered to go from one goal line to the other and then back to the 40-yards line is
S=120y+(120-40)y=120y+80y=200 y
And the time taken is t=22.4 s, so the average speed of the player is
v= \frac{S}{t}= \frac{200 y}{22.4 s}=8.93 y/s

2) The find the average velocity, we should also consider the direction (and the sign) of the velocity.
In the the first part of the motion, the player goes from one goal line to the other one, so he covers 120 y. However, in the second part of the motion he goes back by 80 y. Therefore, the net displacement of the player is
S=120 y-80 y=40 y
and so, the average velocity is
v= \frac{S}{t}= \frac{40 y}{22.4 s}= 1.79 y/s

Which of the following metals reacts with oxygen and acids but is not very reactive with water?
Lina20 [59]

Calcium is reactive with oxygen, acid, and water. Copper is not reactive with water as well as with acids, whereas magnesium is reactive with acid but reactive with water.

<h3>What is a Chemical Reaction?</h3>

One or more chemicals (the reactants) are changed into one or more other compounds during a chemical reaction (the products).Substances are made up of chemical components or chemical elements.

Each calcium atom donates a pair of electrons to an oxygen atom during the interaction between calcium and oxygen to create calcium oxide.

When calcium reacts with hydrochloric acid, it releases bubbles of hydrogen gas, and when large chunks of calcium react with hydrochloric acid, it releases hydrogen gas. Calcium in reaction with water produces calcium hydroxide and hydrogen gas

When magnesium and oxygen interact, they produce light that is so strong that it temporarily impairs your vision. Magnesium burns so brilliantly because it produces a lot of heat while doing so.

Magnesium reacts with hot water or water vapor to produce hydrogen gas and magnesium hydroxide.

Acid does not react with copper. Metals such as lead, copper, silver, and gold do not react with water at all.
