Answer:

About 1080 miles per hour

Explanation:

If the earth spins 25,922 miles everyday (24 hours) then is would spin about 1080 miles per hour.

25 922 miles / 24

24 divided by 24 to get 1 ( 1 hour)

*if we divided 24 by 24 then we do the same to 25 922 (to make it equivalent)

25 922 divided by 24 = 1080.083333333333.

So, 1080 mph or 1080 miles / 1 hour

I hope this helped :)

Two light bulbs have resistances of 400 Ω and 800 ΩThe two light bulbs are connected in series across a 120- V line. Find the cu

Natasha2012 [34]

1) Current in each bulb: 0.1 A

The two light bulbs are connected in series, this means that their equivalent resistance is just the sum of the two resistances:

$R_{eq}=R_1 + R_2 = 400 \Omega + 800 \Omega=1200 \Omega$

And so, the current through the circuit is (using Ohm's law):

$I=\frac{V}{R_{eq}}=\frac{120 V}{1200 \Omega}=0.1 A$

And since the two bulbs are connected in series, the current through each bulb is the same.

2) 4 W and 8 W

The power dissipated by each bulb is given by the formula:

$P=I^2 R$

where I is the current and R is the resistance.

For the first bulb:

$P_1 = (0.1 A)^2 (400 \Omega)=4 W$

For the second bulb:

$P_1 = (0.1 A)^2 (800 \Omega)=8 W$

3) 12 W

The total power dissipated in both bulbs is simply the sum of the power dissipated by each bulb, so:

$P_{tot} = P_1 + P_2 = 4 W + 8 W=12 W$

How do atoms become more chemically stable?

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

For an atom to become totally stable, it needs to have a full outer shell. To do this, two or more atoms will share or give away electrons to each other in a process called bonding.

Explanation:

When an atom loses or gains an electron, it becomes an ion. If it gains an electron, it's a cation, and if it loses one, it's an anion. This happens most commonly in chemical reactions, in which atoms share electrons to form a stable outer shell of 8. For example, the water molecule consists of two hydrogen atoms and an oxygen atom.

A. If a T-Rex runs 20 meters in 4 seconds, what is it’s average speed?

mariarad [96]

5m/s

100m

Explanation:

Average speed is sum of distance distance traveled in a given time by a body.

Average speed= $\frac{total distance covered}{time taken}$

Distance = 20m

time = 4s

Average speed = $\frac{20}{4}$ = 5m/s

For the spaceship;

Distance covered = speed x time

Speed = 50m/s

time = 2s

Distance covered = 50 x 2 = 100m

(a) Calculate the absolute pressure at the bottom of a fresh- water lake at a depth of 27.5 m. Assume the density of the water i

ddd [48]

Answer:

a) $P = 370.993\,kPa$ , b) $F = 25.948\,kN$

Explanation:

a) The absolute pressure at a depth of 27.5 meters is:

$P = P_{atm} + P_{man}$

$P = 101.3\,kPa + \left(1000\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}}\right)\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)\cdot (27.5\,m)\cdot \left(\frac{1\,kPa}{1000\,Pa} \right)$

$P = 370.993\,kPa$

b) The force exerted by the water is:

$F = (P - P_{atm})\cdot A$

$F = (370.993\,kPa-101.3\,kPa)\cdot \left(\frac{\pi}{4} \right)\cdot (0.35\,m)^{2}$

$F = 25.948\,kN$
