A football player runs down the field at a speed of 8 m/s how long will it take him to run 20 m?

1 answer:

4 0

The answer is simple. Since the football player runs at 8m/s and you are trying to find out how long it will take him to run 20 m, you simply divide 20/8.

The answer to this would be 2.5 seconds for the football player to run 20 meters.
I hope I did this problem correct and I hope that this helped you :)))

Air temperature in a desert can reach 58.0°C (about 136°F). What is the speed of sound (in m/s) in air at that temperature?

Veronika [31]

The approximate speed of sound in dry (0% humidity) air, in meters per second, at temperatures near 0 °C, can be calculated from

$c_{air} = (331.3+0.606 \upsilon)$

Here

$\upsilon =$ Temperature in Celsius

Replacing with our values we have that

$\upsilon=58\° C$

$c_{air} = (331.3+0.606*58)$

$c_{air} = 366.1m/s$

Therefore the speed of sound in air at that temperature is 366.1m/s

Explain why nuclear fission and nuclear fusion release large amounts of energy

levacccp [35]

Answer:

Because of the formula $E=mc^2$

Explanation:

In this problem we are describing two different processes:

Nuclear fission occurs when a heavy, unstable nucleus breaks apart into two or more lighter nuclei

Nuclear fusion occurs when two (or more) light nuclei fuse together producing a heavier nucleus

In both cases, the total mass of the final products is smaller than the total mass of the initial nuclei.

According to Einsten's formula, this mass difference has been converted into energy, as follows:

$E=\Delta mc^2$

where:

E is the energy released in the reaction

$\Delta m$ is the mass defect, the difference between the final total mass and the initial total mass

$c=3.0 \cdot 10^8 m/s$ is the speed of light

From the formula, we see that the factor $c^2$ is a very large number, therefore even if the mass defect $\Delta m$ is very small, nuclear fusion and nuclear fission release huge amounts of energy.

The texture of obsidian is best described as glassy.Why does obsidian contain few or no mineral grains? by the way I put it unde

Brrunno [24]

hi, so the material that would normally form mineral crystals does not have time to form a crystalline structure because of very rapid cooling after volcanically erupting into the air or onto the surface. Obsidian is a volcanic glass.

Calculate the total resistance in a series circuit made up of resistances of 3Ω, 4Ω, and 5Ω.

-BARSIC- [3]

The total resistance in a series circuit is equal to the sum of all resistors (R total = ΣRi).

R total = R1 + R2 + R3 = (3 + 4 + 5) Ω = 12 Ω
