Answer:

As atoms in the spoon vibrates about their equilibrium positions and transfer energy form one end to other end. This process is called conduction.

What assumption can be made about the densities of two different spheres that have
Triss [41]

Answer:

Their densities are different as well

Explanation:

Density is worked out by dividing mass by volume. If the mass was the same then the densities would be as well. But it's not.

The launch velocity of a toy car launcher is determined to be 5 m/s. If the car is to be launched from a height of 0.5 m, where
lora16 [44]

Answer:

1.6 m

Explanation:

Given that the launch velocity of a toy car launcher is determined to be 5 m/s. If the car is to be launched from a height of 0.5 m.

The time for landing should be calculated by using the second equation of motion formula

h = Ut + 1/2gt^2

Let U = 0

0.5 = 1/2 × 9.8 × t^2

0.5 = 4.9t^2

t^2 = 0.5 / 4.9

t^2 = 0.102

t = 0.32 s

The target should be placed so that the toy car lands on it at:

Distance = 5 × 0.32

distance = 1.597 m

Distance = 1.6 m

Therefore, the target should be placed so that the toy car lands on it 1.6 metres away.

It is safer for a car driver to be wearing a seat belt, compared with not wearing a seat belt, if the car is involved in a colli
Korolek [52]

Explanation: It is because when a car is moving both the car and the driver is in inertia of motion. When a car is involved in collision it comes to a sudden stop and the car comes into inertia of rest whereas the person still in inertia of motion moves forward and might result in major injuries. But this can be prevented by wearing a seatbelt

Hope it helps :)

(a) Compute the radius r of an impurity atom that will just fit into an FCC octahedral site in terms of the atomic radius R of t
ratelena [41]

Answer:

radius r is  0.414 R

Explanation:

Given data

FCC octahedral site

atomic radius R

to find out

radius r

solution

we know that at FCC octahedral

length of side = 2 R + 2r

and by pythagorean theorem

a = 2√2R

here a = 2R + 2r

so 2R + 2r = 2√2R

so r = ( √2R )- R

r = 0.414 R

so  radius r is  0.414 R
