Let point A be 0.0 miles (first city)
Let point B be 160.5 miles (first city to second city)
Let point C be 28.5 miles (first city to mail stop)

Take C – A = C [28.5 - 0.0 = 28.5] (This checks the distance between city 1 and Mail stop) 

Then Take B – C = Distance from the first city to the second city [160.5 - 28.5 = 132 Miles]


Answer: The Mail stop is 132 miles from the Second City.

What is the acceleration of a Porsche that can go from 15 mi/hr to 75 mi/hr in 4 seconds?
Elodia [21]

Hi there!

Acceleration = change in velocity / change in time = Δv/Δt

Thus:

a = (75 - 15)/4 = 60/4 = 15 mi/hr²

Calcium has a charge of +2. The chart lists the charges of different ions.
dexar [7]
The possible resulting chemical formulas for an ionic compound with calcium given the respective charges of the ions are: CaO, CaMg, or CaF₂ and CaO, CaF₂, or CaCl₂. This is because when dealing with these compounds, you simply need to interchange the oxidation state of the two elements and place as the subscript of the element. For instance, when we have Ca²⁺ and F⁻, the result is CaF₂. However, when the oxidation states of the two compounds are equal, the subscript is 1. That is, for Ca²⁺ and Mg²⁻, the result is CaMg. And for Ca²⁺ and Cl⁻, the result is CaCl₂.

Why does a pencil look bent when it is placed in a glass of water?
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

This is due to bending of light ray passing through the medium.

Explanation:

This can be explained using the concept of refraction.

Refraction can be defined as the bending of light ray as it travels from one medium to another (it can be from the less dense to denser medium or denser to less dense medium)

For that of pencil in water, light ray travels from less dense medium(surrounding air) to denser medium(water). This causes the pencil to bend away from the normal rather than towards the normal (angle of refraction being greater than angle of incidence) and hence the reason for the bending.

NB: Normal line is perpendicular to the plane between the medium.
