Answer:

Water is a polar molecule

Explanation:

The general solubility rule is that like dissolves like. In short, polar solutes would dissolve in polar solvents. Non polar solutes also dissolves on non polar solvents.

NaCl is an ionic molecule which forms as a result of transfer of electrons from one atom to another. The transfer of electrons makes the atoms oppositely a charged ions and they become polar.

Water is made up of Hydrogen H⁺ ions and hydroxy ions OH⁻. Water is an heteronuclear covalent molecule. Here, there is an unequal sharing of electrons as one atom pulls the shared electron more closer. This leaves a partial negative charge on the more electronegative atom and a partial positive charge on the other.

This polar nature of water NaCl makes dissolution easy.

If the velocity of a long jumper during take-offat an angle of 30 degrees is 42 f/s, how fast is he moving forward (Vx) and how
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

Vx=  11.0865(m/s)

Vy=  6.4008(m/s)

Explanation:

Taking into account that 1m is equal to 0.3048 ft, the takeoff speed in m / s will be:

V= 42(ft/s) × 0.3048(m/ft) = 12.8016(m/s)

The take-off angle is equal to 30 °, taking into account the Pythagorean theorem the velocity on the X axis will be:

Vx= 12.8016 (m/s) × cos(30°)= 11.0865(m/s)

And for the same theorem the speed on the Y axis will be:

Vy= 12.8016 (m/s) × sen(30°)= 6.4008(m/s)

How do I differentiate between final and initial velocity in Physics?​
pychu [463]

Answer:

Initial velocity describes how fast an object travels when gravity first applies force on the object. On the other hand, the final velocity is a vector quantity that measures the speed and direction of a moving body after it has reached its maximum acceleration.

A jet can travel the 6000 km distance between washington,
Andrei [34K]
<span> d = r*t is the basic distance equation
 d = 6000 km
 t with the tail wind = 6 hr
 r with the tail wind = speed of the plane + wind speed = s + w
 t with the head wind = 7.5 hr
 r with the head wind = speed of the plane - wind speed = s-w
 (s+w)*6 = 6000
 (s-w)*7.5 = 6000
 s + w = 1000
 s - w = 800
</span><span> 2s = 1800
 s = 900 km/h
 s + w = 1000
 w = 100
 Check the anwer by calculating the return trip.
 (900-100) * 7.5 = 800 * 7.5
 800 * 7.5 = 6000 km
 Answer: The rate of the jet in still air is 900 km/h. The rate of the wind is 100 km/hr.</span>

At what speed does a 1,248 kg compact car have the same kinetic energy as a 18,777 kg truck going 26 km/h?
notka56 [123]

The speed of car is 100.8km/h

KE =  \frac{1}{2} m(v \: truck ) {}^{2}

= 0.5 \times 18777 \times  \frac{26}{3.6} \times  \frac{26}{3.6}

= 489708.79j

=  \frac{1}{2}  \times 1248 \times( v \: car) {}^{2}

= 624v {}^{2}

so \: v {}^{2}  =  \frac{489708.7}{624}

= 784

v =  \sqrt{784}

v = 28m/s

v car= 28×3.6

=100.8km/h

Hence, the speed of the car is 100.8km/h
