A truck goes 5 m/s to 25 in 20 seconds. What is the acceleration of the truck during 20-seconds interval?

Physics

Aliun [14]3 years ago
4 0

Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

Change in speed = (ending speed) - (starting speed)

Change in speed = (25 m/s) - (5 m/s)  =  20 m/s

Time for the change = 20 sec

Acceleration = (20 m/s) / (20 sec)

<em>Acceleration = 1 m/s²</em>

Flura [38]
The presence of helium gas indicates the radioactive sample is most likely decaying by α-decay, or alpha decay. α-decay is the type of radioactive decay in which an atomic nucleus emits α particles. α particles are Helium nuclei. So the correct answer would be α-decay.

What is a heterogeneous mixture and what is a homogeneous mixture?
yuradex [85]
A heterogeneous mixture is a mixture that contains two or more distinct substances that you can see. You can see the different part if a heterogeneous mixture. An example of this is a salad. You can see all of the parts. A homogeneous mixture is a mixture that is uniform and you cannot see the different parts. It is still a mixture though. An example of that would be salt water. The water and salt are not chemically combined but you cannot see the salt AND water. It is just one solution.
