Answer:

The mass of the skateboard is 1.25 kg.

Explanation:

We have,

Mass of dog, m = 5 kg

Initial speed of dog, u = 2.5 m/s

Initial speed of skateboard, u' = 0 (at rest)

The dog jumps onto the skateboard and both the dog and skateboard move with a speed of 2.00 m/s. It is the common speed of the dog +skateboard, V = 2 m/s. We need to find the mass of the skateboard. Using conservation of momentum as :

mu+m'u'=(m+m')V

m' is mass of skateboard

5\times 2.5=(5+m')2\\\\m'=1.25\ kg

So, the mass of the skateboard is 1.25 kg.

Explain what happens inside the radiation zone that causes the photon to take so long to exit the sun
DaniilM [7]
-A photon travels, on average, a particular distance, d, before being briefly absorbed and released by an atom, which scatters it in a new random direction.

-Given d and the speed of light, c, you can figure out the average time step and space step size (how often the photon “steps” and how far it “steps” each time).

-The size of the Sun is figured in terms of step size. Some surprisingly tricky math happens, involving “Brownian motion” and probabilities. Finally,

-The average time it would take to get to the surface of the Sun is found.

Which is most likely a covalent compound?<br><br> LiF<br> MgS<br> NH3<br> CaCl2
Artemon [7]

Answer:

NH₃

Explanation:

The compound that is covalent from the given choices is NH₃.

Covalent compounds are usually formed between two atoms with similar values of electronegativities such that the difference is very small or zero.

  • This bond type involves the sharing of electrons between two atoms with similar electronegativities.
  • Nitrogen and hydrogen forms stable configuration that are isoelectronic with noble gases by sharing their valence electrons.
  • The 3 hydrogen electrons are enough to make nitrogen isoelectronic with neon.
  • Also, the nitrogen with 3 lone pairs of electrons provides the bonding hydrogen with needed electrons to attain a structure similar to helium.

Two blocks are the same size one block has a higher temperature than the other. Which describes the thermal energy of these bloc
shepuryov [24]
The block that has a higher temperature describes the thermal energy of these blocks. Thermal energy is a measure of internal energy - therefore, the block with the higher temperature has more internal energy than the block with the lower temperature, meaning it's thermal energy is greater.
