<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

C) atoms are more stable when they combine with other atoms

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • Atoms are the smallest particles of an element that can take part in a chemical reaction.
  • <em><u>Atoms seldom exist as independent particles in nature. Nearly all substances are made up of combinations of atoms that are held together by chemical bonds, which are forces of attractions between the nuclei and valence electrons of different atoms that join the atoms together.</u></em>

Two vehicles A and B accelerate uniformly from rest.
spayn [35]

Answer:

(i) Please find attached the required velocity time graphs plotted with MS Excel

(ii) The velocity of vehicle A at the 18th second = 20 m/s

The velocity of vehicle B at the 18th second = 0 m/s

(iii) The distance between the two vehicles at the moment in (ii) above is 60 meters

Explanation:

The given parameters of the motion of vehicles A and B are;

The acceleration of vehicles A and B = Uniform acceleration starting from rest

The maximum velocity attained by vehicle A = 30 m/s

The time it takes vehicle A to attain maximum velocity = 10 s

The maximum velocity attained by vehicle B = 30 m/s

The time it takes vehicle B to attain maximum velocity = The time it takes vehicle A to attain maximum velocity = 10 s

The time duration vehicle A maintains its maximum velocity = 6 s

The time duration vehicle B maintains its maximum velocity = 4 s

(i) From the question, we get the following table;

\begin{array}{ccc}Time &V_A&V_B\\0&0&0\\10&30&40\\14&30&40\\16&30&20\\18&20&0\\22&0&\end{array}

From the above table the velocity time graphs of vehicles A and B is created with MS Excel and can included here

(ii) The velocity of vehicle A at the start = 0 m/s

After accelerating for 10 seconds, the velocity of vehicle A = The maximum velocity of vehicle A = 30 m/s

The maximum velocity is maintained for 6 seconds which gives;

At 10 s + 6 s = 16 s, the velocity of vehicle A = 30 m/s

The time it takes vehicle A to decelerate to rest = 6 s

The deceleration of vehicle A, a_A = (30 m/s - 0 m/s)/(6 s) = 5 m/s²

Therefore, we get;

v = u - a_A·t

At the 18th second, the deceleration time, t = 18 s - 16 s = 2 s

u = 30 m/s

∴ v₁₈ = 30 - 5 × 2 = 20

The velocity of vehicle A at the 18th second, V_{18A} = 20 m/s

For vehicle B, we have;

At the 14th second, the velocity of vehicle B = 40 m/s

Vehicle B decelerates to rest in, t = 4 s

The deceleration of vehicle B, a_B = (40 m/s - 0 m/s)/(4 s) = 10 m/s²

For vehicle B, at the 18th second, t = 18 s - 14 s = 4 s

∴ v_{18B} = 40 m/s - 10 m/s² × 4 s = 0 m/s

The velocity of the vehicle B at 18th second, v_{18B} = 0 m/s

(iii) The distance covered by vehicle A up to the 18th second is given by the area under the velocity-time graph as follows;

The area triangle A₁ = (1/2) × 10 × 30 = 150

Area of rectangle, A₂ = 6 × 30 = 180

Area of trapezoid, A₃ = (1/2) × (30 + 20) × 2 = 50

The distance covered in the 18th second by vehicle S_A = A₁ + A₂ + A₃

∴ S_A = 150 + 180 + 50 = 380

The distance covered in the 18th second by vehicle S_A = 380 m

The distance covered by the vehicle B in the 18th second is given by the area under the velocity time graph of vehicle B as follows;

Area of trapezoid, A₅ = (1/2) × (18 + 4) × 40 = 440

The distance covered by the trapezoid, S_B = 440 m

The distance of the two vehicles apart at the 18t second, S_{AB} = S_B - S_A

∴ S_{AB} = 440 m - 380 m = 60 m

The distance of the two vehicles from one another at the 18th second, S_{AB} = 60 m.

Is it possible for one energy store to transfer into another energy store ?Explained answer
liraira [26]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

Energy can be transferred from one object to another or between energy stores within the same object. For example on a pool table when white ball hits another ball energy is transferred from the kinetic store of the white ball to the kinetic store of the other ball.

A steel wire of length 31.0 m and a copper wire of length 17.0 m, both with 1.00-mm diameters, are connected end to end and stre
Brut [27]

Answer:

The time taken is  t =  0.356 \ s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The length of steel the wire is  l_1  = 31.0 \ m

   The  length of the  copper wire is  l_2  = 17.0 \ m

    The  diameter of the wire is  d =  1.00 \ m  =  1.0 *10^{-3} \ m

     The  tension is  T  =  122 \ N

     

The time taken by the transverse wave to travel the length of the two wire is mathematically represented as

              t  =  t_s  +  t_c

Where  t_s is the time taken to transverse the steel wire which is mathematically represented as

         t_s  = l_1 *  [ \sqrt{ \frac{\rho * \pi *  d^2 }{ 4 *  T} } ]

here  \rho_s is the density of steel with a value  \rho_s  =  8920 \ kg/m^3

   So

      t_s  = 31 *  [ \sqrt{ \frac{8920 * 3.142*  (1*10^{-3})^2 }{ 4 *  122} } ]

      t_s  = 0.235 \ s

 And

        t_c is the time taken to transverse the copper wire which is mathematically represented as

      t_c  = l_2 *  [ \sqrt{ \frac{\rho_c * \pi *  d^2 }{ 4 *  T} } ]

here  \rho_c is the density of steel with a value  \rho_s  =  7860 \ kg/m^3

 So

      t_c  = 17 *  [ \sqrt{ \frac{7860 * 3.142*  (1*10^{-3})^2 }{ 4 *  122} } ]

      t_c  =0.121

So  

   t  = t_c  + t_s

    t =  0.121 + 0.235

    t =  0.356 \ s
