Two bumper cars move in a straight line with the following equations of motion: x1 = -4.0 m + (1.1 m/s )t x2 = 8.8 m + (-2.9 m/s

)t what time do they collide?

Answer:

3.2 seconds

Explanation:

When the cars collide, they have the same position.

x₁ = x₂

-4 + 1.1t = 8.8 − 2.9t

4t = 12.8

t = 3.2

What is Acceleration?​
earnstyle [38]

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity

 

To define acceleration, We need to know more about motion.

Motion: This can be defined as the change in position of a body from one point to another. When an object accelerates, it undergoes motion.

<u>Definition</u>

Acceleration can be defined as the rate of change of velocity. The S.I unit of acceleration is meter-per-squared seconds. (m/s²)

The formula of acceleration is

  • a = (v-u)/t................. Equation 1

⇒ Where:

  • a = acceleration
  • u = initial velocity
  • v = final velocity
  • t = time

Hence, Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity

It means there are two chlorine molecules and there is only one magnesium molecule (because no subscript really just means there is an invisible 1 that isn't listed).

The mass of a radioactive substance follows a continuous exponential decay model, with a decay rate parameter of 1% per day. A s
Bumek [7]

Answer:

2,38kg

Explanation:

Mass in function of time can be found by the formula: m_{(t)} =m_{0} e^{-kt}, where m_{0} is the initial mass, t is the time and k is a constant.

Given that a sample decay 1% per day, that means that after first day you have 99% of mass.

m_{(1)} =m_{0} e^{-k(1)}, but m_{(1)}=\frac{99m_{0} }{100}, so we have \frac{99m_{0} }{100}=m_{0}e^{-k}, then k=-ln(\frac{99}{100})=0.01

Now using k found we must to find m_{(5)}.

m_{(5)}=m_{0}e^{-(0.01)5}=2.5kge^{-0.05} =2.5x0.951=2.38kg

sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

A star uses fusion as an energy source by building larger atoms from smaller atoms.

Explanation:

Nuclear fission and fusion are two processes at which an atomic nucleus is changed to produce energy. Fission is the process splitting heavy atomic into lighter atomic nuclei.

So, fusion is the combination of smaller atoms to form larger atoms and star uses this as source of energy.

Fusion is the process at which light atomic nuclei are merged or fused together to form heavier nuclei.

The energy source for all stars is nuclear fusion. In a nuclear fusion reaction, the nuclei of two atoms combine to create a new atom. Most commonly, in the core of a star, two hydrogen atoms fuse to become a helium atom.
