The average speed can be easily calculated by taking the ratio of distance and time. That is:

average speed = distance / time

 

so calculating:

average speed = 4875 ft / 6.85 minutes

<span>average speed = 711.68 ft / min</span>

<u>Answer</u>:

Speed of the runner is 8.08 miles per hour approximately.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Given:

A runner runs =4875 ft

Time Taken = 6.85 minutes.

To Find:  

Average speed of the runner in miles per hour=?

Solution:

Distance = Speed x time

Conveting feet into miles:

=>Distance= 4875\times\frac{1}{5280} miles

=>Distance = 0.9232955 miles

Converting minutes into hours:

time = 6.85 minutes

=> 6.85\times \frac{1}{60}  hours

=> \frac{6.85}{60}= 0.1141667 hours.

Now, we know that, distance = speed x time  

Then, 0.9232955 miles = speed x 0.1141667 hours  

=>speed = \frac{0.9232955}{0.1141667}

=>speed = 8.08725749

bija089 [108]
<span>The proton differs from the electron in sign although they have the same value. Like the electron, a proton will gain 215 electron-volts of eV in Kinetic energy. So 1.602Ă—10^-19 J * 215 = 344.43 * 10^(-19) J. But K. E. = mv^2 / 2, so v^2 = 2 * K.E/m. The mass of a proton is 1.673 * 10^-27 kg. So v = âš(2 * 344.43 * 10^(-19))/1.673Ă—10^-27 = 688.86 * 10^(-19)/1.673Ă—10^(-27) = 411.75 * 10^(-19-(-27)) = âš411.75 * 10^(8) = 202196.56 Also for the electron we have v^2 = 2 * K.E/m but here mass, m, = 9.109 * 10^-31 kg. So we have v = âš(2 * 344.43 * 10^(-19)) / 9.109 * 10^-31 = 688.86 * 10^(-19)/ 9.109 * 10^-31 = 75.624 * 10^(-19 - (-31)) = 75.624 * 10^(21) and v = 2.749 * 10^11</span>

Which formula correctly expresses the property density?
Olenka [21]

Answer:

Option A

D = m/v

Explanation:

Density is defined as mass per unit volume of an object. Therefore, D=m/v where m is the mass of the object and v is the volume

Therefore, option A is the right option

Doubly ionized lithium Li2+ (Z = 3) and triply ionized beryllium Be3+ (Z = 4) each emit a line spectrum. For a certain series of
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

tex]\lambda_{Be}[/tex] = 22.78 nm

Explanation:

Bohr's model for the hydrogen atom has been used by other atoms with a single electric charge by changing the number of charges by the charge of the new atom (atomic number)

      E_{n}= k e² / 2a₀ (1 /n²)

      ao = h'² / k m e²               h' = h/2πi

For another atom with a single electron in the last layer

      a₀ ’= h’² / k m (Ze)²  

      a₀ ’= a₀ / Z²

Therefore, when replacing in the equation

      E_{n} = - Z²  Eo/n²

     E₀ = 13,606 eV

The transition occurs when the electron stops from one level to another

         E_{n} -  E_{m} = Z² E₀ (1 / n² - 1 / m²) = Z² ΔE

Let's relate this expression to the wavelength

       c = λ f

      E = h f

      E = h c /λ

      h c / λ = Z² ΔE

     λ = 1 / Z² (hc / ΔE)

     λ = 1 / Z² λ_hydrogen

Let's apply this last equation to our case

Lithium Z = 3

     E_{n} = - 9 Eo / n²

     

      40.5 10-9 = 1/9 λ_hydrogen

Beryllium Z = 4

      λ = 1/16 λ_hydrogen

Let's write our two equations is and solve

     40.5 10-9 = 1/9 λ_hydrogen

    tex]\lambda_{Be}[/tex] = 1/ 16 λ_hydrogen

      40.5 10⁻⁹ = 1/9 (16 \lambda_{Be} )

    tex]\lambda_{Be}[/tex] = 40.5 9/16

  tex]\lambda_{Be}[/tex] = 22.78 nm

when a metal ball is heated through 30°c,it volume becomes 1.0018cm^3 if the linear expansivity of the material of the ball is 2
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

The original volume of the metal sphere is approximately 1 cm³

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The temperature change of the metal ball, ΔT = 30°C = 30 K

The new volume of the metal ball, V₂  = 1.0018 cm³

The linear expansivity of the material ball, α = 2.0 × 10⁻⁵ K⁻¹

We have;

d₂ = d₁·(1 + α·ΔT)

Where;

d₁ = The original diameter of the metal ball

d₂ = The new diameter of the ball

From the volume of the ball, V₂, we have;

V₂ = 1.0018 cm³ = (4/3)×π×r₂³

Where;

r₂ = The new radius = d₂/2

∴ V₂ = 1.0018 cm³ = (4/3)×π×(d₂/2)³

∴ d₂ = ∛(2³ × 1.0018 cm³/((4/3) × π)) ≈ 1.241445 cm

d₁ = d₂/(1 + α·ΔT)

∴ d₁ ≈ 1.241445 cm/(1 + 2.0 × 10⁻⁵·K × 30 K) ≈ 1.24070058 cm

The original volume of the metal ball, V₁ = (4/3)×π×(d₁/2)³

∴ V₁ = (4/3)×π×(1.24070058/2)³ ≈ 0.99999902845 cm³ ≈ 1 cm³

The original volume of the metal sphere, V₁ ≈ 1 cm³.
