Find the speed of a bicyclist who took an hour and a half to travel 10km
Natalija [7]

distance = 10km

time = 1 1/2 = 3/2 hours

speed = distance/time = 10 / 3/2 = 20/3 = 6.67 Km/h

What is an inelastic collision?
Radda [10]

Answer:

An elastic collision is a collision in which there is no net loss in kinetic energy in the system as a result of the collision. Both momentum and kinetic energy are conserved quantities inelastic collisions.

Explanation:

Suppose two similar trolleys are traveling toward each other with equal speed. They collide, bouncing off each other with no loss in speed. This collision is perfectly elastic because no energy has been lost.  In reality, examples of perfectly elastic collisions are not part of our everyday experience. Some collisions between atoms in gases are examples of perfectly elastic collisions. However, there are some examples of collisions in mechanics where the energy lost can be negligible. These collisions can be considered elastic, even though they are not perfectly elastic. Collisions of rigid billiard balls or the balls in Newton's cradle are two such examples.

An object is 10 cm from the mirror, its height is 1 cm and the focal length is 5 cm. What is the image height? (Indicate the obj
boyakko [2]

The image height is -10 cm (the image is upside down)

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by using the mirror equation:

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{p}+\frac{1}{q}

where:

f = 5 cm is the focal length of the mirror

p = 10 cm is the distance of the object from the mirror

q is the distance of the image from the mirror

Solving for q, we find:

\frac{1}{q}=\frac{1}{f}-\frac{1}{p}=\frac{1}{5}-\frac{1}{10}=\frac{1}{10}\\\rightarrow q= 10 cm

So, the distance of the image from the mirror is 10 cm.

Now we can find the image height by using the magnification equation:

\frac{y'}{y}=-\frac{q}{p}

where

y' is the height of the image

y = 1 cm is the height of the object

and using

p = 10 cm

q = 10 cm

We find the size of the image:

y' = -\frac{qy}{p}=-\frac{(10)(1)}{10}=-10 cm

where the negative sign indicates that the image is upside down.

Which isotope has 16 neutrons and is used to study nucleotides and nucleic acids?
qaws [65]
When naming isotopes, the number beside it indicates the mass number. Now mass number is the sum of protons and neutrons. 

We know that the mass number of a stable Sulfur atom is 32, so  we can rule out C as an isotope. The atomic number of Sulfur is 16 and that means that there are 16 protons. Now if we subtract 16 from 33, then that means there are 17 neutrons. So we can rule out D. 

Phosphorus on the other hand has an atomic number of 15. If we subtract 15 from 31 we will have 16. That means that Phosphorus-31 has 16 neutrons.

The answer would then be A. Phosphorus 31.
