A positive acceleration indicates that the object sped up. This means that if you compare the first speed to the second, the second speed should be higher.
A negative acceleration indicates that the object has slowed down. This means that if you compare the first speed to the second, the second speed should be lower.
If an acceleration is 0, it means that it neither slowed down nor sped up.
Now let us analyze your problem by listing down the speed and the time:
At noon: 4 mi/hr
12:30 : 6 mi/hr
2:30 : 2 mi/hr
From noon to 12:30, you will notice that there is an increase in speed. This means that Tommy had a positive acceleration. (Rules out D.)
From 12:30 to 2:30, there is a decrease in speed. This would indicate that Tommy had a negative acceleration. (Rules out C.)
No speed was the same, so acceleration was never 0. (Rules out A.)
From the assumptions above, we can now deduce that the answer is B.
The most condensed state of matter is solid
Answer:
volume of gas = 9.1436cm³
Explanation:
We will only temperature from °C to K since the conversion is done by the addition of 273 to the Celsius value.
Its not necessary to convert pressure and volume as their conversions are done by multiplication and upon division using the combined gas equation, the factors used in their conversions will cancel out.
V1 =10.1cm³ , P1 =746mmHg, T1=23°C =23+273=296k
V2 =? , P2 =760mmmHg , T2=0°C = 0+273 =273K
Using the combined gas equation to calculate for V2;
V2=9.1436cm³
Answer:
2 sig figs.
Explanation:
Sig Fig Rules:
Any non-zero digit is a significant figure.
Any zeros between 2 non-zero digits are significant figures.
Trailing zeros after the decimal are significant figures.
