The atoms in your body are mostly empty space . And so are the atoms in any wall. Why then is your body unable to pass through w

First of all, both are not a single sheet of atom. There are many layers of atoms, so the empty part gets beside each other, so there are less empty part. Secondly, there are so many atoms that the probability that they will have empty space at the same place necessary, is negligible.

This was something from logic.

The reason I was taught in my class was that only a limited number of electrons can be in a given orbit, so atoms cannot overlap each other.

melisa1 [442]
1 Amp = 1 Coulomb/sec
1 Coulomb/sec = 6.25*10^18 electrons/sec

Therefore,
5.0 A = 5 C/s = 5*6.25*10^18 = 3.125*10^19 e/s

In 10 second, number of electrons are calculated as;
Number of electrons through the device = 3.125*10^19*10 = 3.125*10^20 electrons

Which of the following is the same in all frames of reference?
Ksju [112]
The correct option is B.
The length of an object, the mass of an object and the rate of time passage for an object can change depending on the situation which the object is subject to. For instance in space, the mass and the velocity of an object usually change. But, the value of the speed of light in the space is the same for all observers regardless of the motion of an object, that is, the speed of light is a constant.<span />

Driving along a boring stretch of interstate in Illinois, you start experimenting using the average speed equation you learned i
astra-53 [7]
The average speed would be 33.29m/s.
The average speed equation is:

Average speed =  \frac{total distance}{total time}

First you will need to solve for the distance you traveled in each scenario. So we can solve this by getting the product of speed and the time traveled. 

Scenario 1:
Speed = 29m/s
Time = 120s
Distance = ?

Distance = (29m/s)(120s)
               = 3,480m

Scenario 2
Speed = 35m/s
Time = 300s
Distance = ? 

Distance = (35m/s)(300s)
               = 10,500m

Now that you have the distance of both, you can solve for your average speed. 

Average speed = \frac{total distance}{total time}
                                = \frac{3,480m+10,500m}{120s+300s}
                                = \frac{13,980m}{420s}
                                = 33.29m/s

Sitting in a chairlift, Rebecca has a gravitational potential energy of 5,997.6
stira [4]

Answer:

B) 12 m

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy is:

PE = mgh

Given PE = 5997.6 J, and m = 51 kg:

5997.6 J = (51 kg) (9.8 m/s²) h

h = 12 m
