The vanishing of an ionic solid (like table salt) would be an example of acting like a solvent

Answer: pour an ionic solid into water and see if it vanishes.

Explanation: The solubility of substances is governed by: Like dissolves like, which states that polar compounds are soluble in polar solvents and non polar compounds are soluble in non polar solvents.

Ionic compounds are formed by combination of positively charged cations and negatively charged anions which are held by strong coloumbic forces.When ionic compounds are dissolved in water, the ions are dissociated due to high dielectric constant of water and thus dissolve in water.

Water being a polar solvent is able to dissolve ionic or polar compounds in it.

Which measurement is a potential difference?<br> A.115J<br> B.115V<br> C.115N<br> D.115C
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Potential difference has a SI Unit of Volt and its symbol is <em>V</em>. Hence answer is <u>B</u>.

A is wrong as it has the unit Joule <em>(J)</em> which is the SI unit for energy.

C is wrong as it has the unit Newton <em>(N)</em> which is the SI unit for force.

D is wrong as it has the unit Coulomb <em>(C)</em> which is the SI unit of charge.

Lonnie pitches a baseball of mass 0.20 kg. The ball arrives at home plate with a speed of 40 m/s and is batted straight back to
suter [353]

Answer:

B) 20N.s is the correct answer

Explanation:

The formula for the impulse is given as:

Impulse = change in momentum

Impulse = mass × change in speed

Impulse = m × ΔV

Given:

initial speed  = 40m/s

Final speed = -60 m/s (Since the the ball will now move in the opposite direction after hitting the bat, the speed is negative)

mass = 0.20 kg

Thus, we have

Impulse = 0.20 × (40m/s - (-60)m/s)

Impulse = 0.20 × 100 = 20 kg-m/s or 20 N.s

A particle moves at a constant speed of 34 m/s in a circular path of radius 6.3 m. From this information, what can be calculated
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

Centripetal acceleration

Explanation:

  • The centripetal acceleration is the motion inwards towards the center of a circular path.
  • <em><u>Centripetal acceleration is given by; the square of the velocity, divided by the radius of the circular path. </u></em>
  • That is;

         ac = v²/r

         Where; ac = acceleration, centripetal, m/s², v is the velocity, m/s and r is the  radius, m

An object experiences an acceleration of -6.8 m/s​2.​ As a result, it accelerates from 54 m/s to a complete stop. How much dista
inessss [21]

Answer:

The distance traveled during its acceleration, d = 214.38 m

Explanation:

Given,

The object's acceleration, a = -6.8 m/s²

The initial speed of the object, u = 54 m/s

The final speed of the object, v = 0

The acceleration of the object is given by the formula,

                                      a = (v - u) / t   m/s²

       ∴                              t = (v - u) / a

                                         = (0 - 54) / (-6.8)

                                         = 7.94 s

The average velocity of the object,

                                       V = (54 + 0)/2

                                           = 27 m/s

The displacement of the object,

                                 d = V x t   meter

                                    = 27 x 7.94

                                    = 214.38 m

Hence, the distance the object traveled during that acceleration is, a = 214.38 m
