Answer:

30 m/s

Explanation:

Vf = ?

Vi = 0 m/s

a = 20 m/s^2

t = 1.5 s

Plug those values into the equation: Vf = Vi + at

Vf = 0 + (20)(1.5)

Vf = 30 m/s

The intensity of light from a star varies inversely as the square of the distance. If you lived on a planet ten times farther aw
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

the intensity of the sun on the other planet is a hundredth of that of the intensity of the sun on earth.

That is,

Intensity of sun on the other planet, Iₒ = (intensity of the sun on earth, Iₑ)/100

Explanation:

Let the intensity of light be represented by I

Let the distance of the star be d

I ∝ (1/d²)

I = k/d²

For the earth,

Iₑ = k/dₑ²

k = Iₑdₑ²

For the other planet, let intensity be Iₒ and distance be dₒ

Iₒ = k/dₒ²

But dₒ = 10dₑ

Iₒ = k/(10dₑ)²

Iₒ = k/100dₑ²

But k = Iₑdₑ²

Iₒ = Iₑdₑ²/100dₑ² = Iₑ/100

Iₒ = Iₑ/100

Meaning the intensity of the sun on the other planet is a hundredth of that of the intensity on earth.

When a falling meteoroid is at a distance above the Earth's surface of 3.40 times the Earth's radius, what is its acceleration d
Alchen [17]

Answer:

g = 0.85 ms^{-2}

Explanation:

g = \frac{GM}{h^{2} }

were; g is the acceleration due to Earth's gravity, G is Newton's gravitation constant (6.674 x 10^{-11} Nm^{2}kg^{-2}), M is the mass of the earth (5.972 x 10^{24} kg), and h is the distance of meteoroid to the earth.

h = 3.40 x R

  = 3.40 x 6371 km

h = 21661.4 km

  = 21661400 m

Thus,

g = \frac{6.674*10^{-11}*5.972*10^{24}  }{(21661400)^{2} }

  = \frac{3.9857 *10^{14} }{4.6922*10^{14} }

  = 0.84944

g = 0.85 ms^{-2}

The acceleration due to the Earth's gravitation is 0.85 ms^{-2}.

"Which of the following statements about electrons is not true?
gogolik [260]

Answer:

B) Within an atom, an electron can have only particular energies.

Explanation:

As we know that electrons have energy but apart from electrons we know that protons and neutrons inside the nucleus of atom will also have energy in them.

rest all the statements are true as we have

A) Electrons orbit the nucleus rather like planets orbiting the Sun.

TRUE, because electrons can move in stationary orbit around the nucleus

C) Electrons can jump between energy levels in an atom only if they receive or give up an amount of energy equal to the difference in energy between the energy levels.

Difference amount of energy is lost or absorbed by the electron in form of photons

D) An electron has a negative electrical charge.

Charge of an electron is given as -1.6 \times 10^{-19} C

E) Electrons have very little mass compared to protons or neutrons

Mass of an electron is given as

m_e = 9.11 \times 10^{-31} kg

mass of proton or neutron

m_p = 1.67 \times 10^{-27} kg

What determines if a material is a conductor or an insulator? Explain your answer and provide at least one example of each.
Dmitry [639]
A conducting material conducts or allows electricity to flow, while an insulator does not allow electricity to flow. For example think of a water pipe, if the pipe has a hole water can flow, on the other hand if it is just a solid rod, no water can flow through. I hope this helps.
