The reason a penny thrown straight up inside a bus will come back to your hand is that you, the bus, the air inside the bus, and

the penny are all moving at the same velocity.The law of inertia applies to both moving and nonmoving objects.
this is a true or false question help

Answer:

its false

Explanation:

since the penny is thrown straight up its not going to move forwad with you and the bus since it has no forces pushing on it. If the bus wasn't moving it would land back on your hand

Your GPS shows that your friend’s house is 10.0 km away. But there is a big hill between your houses and you don’t want to bike

kati45 [8]

Answer:

The value is $c = 8 \ km$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The distance of friends house from your point is $a = 10 \ km$

The distance of your friends street from your street is $b = 6 \ km \ in the \ direction \ towards \ the \ north$

The diagram illustrating this question is shown on the first uploaded image

From the diagram we can apply by Pythagoras theorem as follows

$a^2 = b^2 + c^2$

=> $c = \sqrt{^2 - b^2}$

=> $c = \sqrt{ 10^2 - 6^2}$

=> $c = 8 \ km$

If carbon has an atomic number of 6, how many protons and neutrons are found in the carbon-14 atom? A.

Alex Ar [27]

The correct answer is B. 6 protons and 8 neutrons

Carbon-14 has same atomic number of 6. It has a nucleon number of 14
Atomic number = proton number = 6
Neutron number = nucleon number - atomic number = 14 - 6 = 8

Hope it helped!

Instantaneous speed is measured

VMariaS [17]

Answer:

C. At a particular instant

Explanation:

Speed is the defined as the ratio between the distance covered by an object and the time taken:

$v=\frac{d}{t}$

where d is the distance and t the time.

However, there are two possible measurements of speed:

- Average speed: this is the speed measured over a non-zero time interval (for example: a car moving 100 metres in 5 seconds; its average speed is

$v=\frac{100 m}{5 s}=20 m/s$

- Instantaneous speed: this is the speed of an object measured at a particular instant in time, so for a time interval that tends to zero. So, in the previous example, the average speed is 20 m/s but the instantaneous speed of the car at various instants of time can be different from that value.

Glycerin (C3H8O3) is a nonvolatile liquid. What is the vapor pressure of a solution made by adding 154 g of glycerin to 316 mL o

garri49 [273]

Answer:

$P_{sol}=50.4\ mm.Hg$

Explanation:

According to given:

molecular mass of glycerin, $M_g=3\times 12+8+3\times 16=92\ g.mol^{-1}$

molecular mass of water, $M_w=2+16=18\ g.mol^{-1}$

∵Density of water is $0.992\ g.cm^{-3}= 0.992\ g.mL^{-1}$

∴mass of water in 316 mL, $m_w=316\times 0.992=313.5 g$

mass of glycerin, $m_g=154\ g$

pressure of mixture, $P_x=55.32\ torr= 55.32\ mm.Hg$

temperature of mixture, $T_x=40^{\circ}C$

<em>Upon the formation of solution the vapour pressure will be reduced since we have one component of solution as non-volatile.</em>

<u>moles of water in the given quantity:</u>

$n_w=\frac{m_w}{M_w}$

$n_w=\frac{313.5}{18}$

$n_w=17.42 moles$

<u>moles of glycerin in the given quantity:</u>

$n_g=\frac{m_g}{M_g}$

$n_g=\frac{154}{92}$

$n_g=1.674 moles$

<u>Now the mole fraction of water:</u>

$X_w=\frac{n_w}{n_w+n_g}$

$X_w=\frac{17.42}{17.42+1.674}$

$X_w=0.912$

<em>Since glycerin is non-volatile in nature so the vapor pressure of the resulting solution will be due to water only.</em>

$\therefore P_{sol}=X_w\times P_x$

$\therefore P_{sol}=0.912\times 55.32$

$P_{sol}=50.4\ mm.Hg$
