Answer:

Final speed after 2 seconds = 34.6 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

Initial speed of coin (u) = 15 m/s

Time taken = 2 seconds

Find:

Final speed after 2 seconds

Computation:

Gravitational acceleration of earth = 9.8 m/s²

Using first equation of motion;

v = u + at

or

v = u + gt

where,

v = final velocity

u = initial velocity

g = Gravitational acceleration

t = time taken

v = 15 + 9.8(2)

v = 15 + 19.6

Final speed after 2 seconds = 34.6 m/s

According to Charles's law, for a fixed quantity of gas at constant pressure, which of the given quantities is constant? Accordi
Naddik [55]
Charles's <span>law is also known as the law of volumes explained the relation between the volume of gas and its temperature.

Charles's law states that: " At constant pressure, the volume of a certain mass of gas is directly proportional to its temperature in kelvin".
This means that:
V = T*constant
V/T = constant

Based on this, the correct choice is:
</span><span>a) V/T</span>

What is the difference between vector and scalar ?
ddd [48]
The easiest, non-technical way to think about it is like this:

-- A scalar is a quantity that has a size but no direction.
Those include temperature, speed, cost, volume, distance, etc.

One number is all there is to know about it, and there's no way you can
add more of the same stuff to it that would cancel both of them out.

-- A vector is a quantity that has a size and also has a direction.
Those include force, displacement, velocity, acceleration, etc.

It takes more than one number to completely describe one of these.
Also, if you combine two of the same vector quantity in different ways,
you can get different results, and they can even cancel each other out.

Here are some examples.  Notice that in each of these examples,
every speed has a direction that goes along with it.  This turns the
scalar speed into a vector velocity.

If you're walking inside a bus, and the bus is driving along the road,
then your velocity along the road is the sum of your walking velocity
inside the bus plus the velocity of the bus along the road.

-- If you're walking north up the middle of the bus at 2 miles per hour
and the bus is driving north along the road at 20 miles per hour, then
your velocity along the road is 22 miles per hour north.

-- If you're walking south towards the back of the bus at 2 miles per hour
and the bus is driving north along the road at 5 miles per hour, then your
velocity along the road is 3 miles per hour north.

-- If you're walking south towards the back of the bus at 2 miles per hour
and the bus is just barely rolling north along the road at 2 miles per hour,
then your velocity along the road is zero.

--  If you're in a big railroad flat-car that's rolling north along the track
at 2 miles per hour, and you walk across the flat-car towards the east
at 2 miles per hour, then your velocity along the ground is 2.818 miles
per hour toward the northeast.

A school bus has a mass (including the driver and passengers) of 1.64 times 10^4 kg and is driving north at a speed of 15.2 km/h
Butoxors [25]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of bus along with travelers travelling in North direction is m_1=1.6\times 10^4 kg

speed of bus towards North v_1=15.2 km/h\approx 4.22\ m/s

mass of bus travelling in South direction is m_2=1.578\times 10^4 kg

speed of bus v_2=12.2 km/h\approx 3.38\ m/s

mass of each Passenger in south moving bus m_0=64.8 kg

Momentum of North moving bus

P_1=m_1\times v_1

P_1=1.6\times 10^4\times 4.22

P_1=6.768\times 10^4 kg-m/s

Momentum with south moving bus

P_2=m_2\times v_2+n\cdot m_0\times v_2

P_2=(1.578\times 10^4+n\cdot 64.8 )\cdot 3.38

For total momentum to be towards south

P_2-P_1 should be greater than 0

thus for least value of n

P_2=P_1

(1.578\times 10^4+n\cdot 64.8 )\cdot 3.38=6.768\times 10^4

1.578\times 10^4+n\cdot 64.8=2.0023\times 10^4

n=\frac{4243.6686}{64.8}=65.48\approx 66

Atmospheric pressure is greater at the base of a mountain than at
aliina [53]

At the top of the mountain, when he tightens the cap onto the bottole, there is some water and some air inside the bottle.  Then he brings the bottle down to the base of the mountain.

The pressure on the outside of the bottle is greater  than it was when he put the cap on.  If anything could get out of the bottlde, it would. But it can't . . . the cap is on too tight. So all the water and all the air has to stay inside, and anything that can get squished into a smaller space has to get squished into a smaller space.

The water is pretty much unsquishable.

Biut the air in there can be <em>COMPRESSED</em>.  The air gets squished into a smaller space, and the bottle wrinkles in slightly.
