Answer:

33.33j+6.67i km/hr

Explanation:

From the law of conservation of momentum,

Applying,

mu+m'u' = V(m+m')............... Equation 1

Where m = mass of the truck, m' = mass of the car, u = initial velocity of the truck, u' = initial velocity of the car, V = Final velocity.

Note: let j represent the north, and i  represent the east

From the question,

Given: m = 1500 kg, u = 60j, m' = 1200 kg, u' = 15i

Substitute these values into equation 1

1500*60j+1200*15i = V(1500+1200)

90000j+18000i = 2700V

V = (90000j+18000i)/2700

V = 33.33j+6.67i km/hr

The gravitational field is the Force divided by the mass

Call g the gravitational fiel, F the force exerted by the earth and m the mass of the telescope.

g = F / m


g=9.1x10^4 N / 1.1 x 10^4 kg = 8.27 N/kg

Note that the unit N/kg is equivalent to m/s^2

Why is water considered to be a complex compound
DedPeter [7]
HEY THERE !!

\huge{COMPOUND:-}
Compounds contain two or more different elements. 


Water is a molecule because it contains molecular bonds . Water is also a compound  because it is made from more than one kind of element. (oxygen and hydrogen).

So If you like, you can say that water is a molecular compound.

Many biological systems are well-described by the laws of statistical physics. A simple yet often powerful approach is to think
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

z1/z2

Explanation:

we have no quantum effects therefore we can make use of Maxwell Boltzmann distribution in the description of this system.

using the boltzman distribution the probability of finding a particle in energy state

P_{ei}  = \frac{gie^{-ei/kol} }{z}

we have

gi to be degeneration of the ith state

ei to be energy of ith state

z=e^{-ei/kbt} summation

P_{ope} = \frac{e^{-ei/kBt} }{z} = \frac{Z_{1} }{Z}

We have R to be equal to

\frac{P_{ope} }{P_{Close} } = \frac{Z1}{Z2}

Chi walked 100 meters in 5 minutes. She took another 15 minutes to walk another 400 meters to reach her house. What is her avera
Law Incorporation [45]

Average speed is the ratio of total distance moved by Chi in total time interval

So here we will have

Total distance = 100 m + 400 m

d = 500 m = 0.5 km

Total time taken = 5 min + 15 min = 20 min

T = \frac{20}{60} = \frac{1}{3} hour

now by the formula of average speed we know that

v_{avg} = \frac{d}{T}

v_{avg} = \frac{0.5 km}{1/3 h}

v_{avg} = 1.5 km/h

so average speed will be 1.5 km/h
