Answer:

The Nucleus

Explanation:

The nucleus contains the majority of an atom's mass because protons and neutrons are much heavier than electrons, whereas electrons occupy almost all of an atom's volume. I hope this helps you :D

The mass of a coin is measured to be 12.5±0.1 g. The diameter is 2.8±0.1 cm and the thickness 2.1 ±0.1 mm. Calculate the average

Evgesh-ka [11]

The average density of the material from which the coin is made is 9.67 g/cm³.

<h3>Volume of the coin</h3>

The volume of the coin at the given diameter is calculated as follows;

V = Ah

where;

A is area of the coin
h is the thickness of the coin

V = πd²/4 x h

V = π(2.8)²/4 x (0.21 cm)

V = 1.293 cm³

<h3>average density of the coin</h3>

The average density of the material from which the coin is made is calculated as follows;

density = mass/volume

density = 12.5 g / (1.293 cm³)

density = 9.67 g/cm³

Thus, the average density of the material from which the coin is made is 9.67 g/cm³.

Two boats start together and race across a 48-km-wide lake and back. Boat A goes across at 48 km/h and returns at 48 km/h. Boat

nika2105 [10]

Answer:

Part 1)

Boat A will win the race

Part 2)

Boat A will win the race by 48 km as the 2nd boat will reach the other end while boat A will just touches the finish line

Part 3)

average velocity must be zero

Explanation:

As we know that the distance moved by the boat is given as

$d = 48 km$

now the time taken by the boat to move to and fro is given as

$t = \frac{d}{v}$

$t = \frac{48 + 48}{48}$

$t = 2 hrs$

Time taken by Boat B to cover the distance

$t = \frac{48}{24} + \frac{48}{72}$

$t = 2.66 h$

Part 1)

Boat A will win the race

Part 2)

Boat A will win the race by 48 km as the 2nd boat will reach the other end while boat A will just touches the finish line

Part 3)

Since the displacement of Boat A is zero

so average velocity must be zero

A car starts from rest and after 20 seconds it's velocity becomes 108km find the acceleration of the car

andre [41]

Answer:

1.5 km/s²

Explanation:

Given that:

a car starts from rest; it means the initial velocity (u) = 0 km/hr = 0 m/s

after time (t) = 20 seconds

the final velocity = 108 km/hr = 30 m/s

The acceleration (a) of the car can be determined by using the formula:

$a = \dfrac{v-u}{t}$

$a = \dfrac{30\ m/s -0 \ m/s}{20 \ s}$

$a = \dfrac{30 \ m/s}{20 \ s}$

a = 1.5 km/s²

A student jumps off a sled toward the NORTH after it stops at the bottom of an icy hill. Based on Newton's third law of motion,

zhuklara [117]

When the student the sled jumps off toward the north , the sled most likely move towards the south.

<h3>What is the Newton third law?</h3>

According to the Newton third law of motion, action and reaction are equal and opposite. This means that the direction of the reaction force must also be opposite to that of the action.

As such, when the student the sled jumps off toward the north , the sled most likely move towards the south.

A sample of gas in a syringe releases heat to its surroundings while the

blsea [12.9K]

Answer: b

Explanation:

When heat is released by the system i.e. system loses heat. So, we take it as negative -Q

When the work is done on the system then it is considered as negative work on the system i.e. -W

In this case, the plunger is pulled out, and work is done on the system. So, we take work as negative work -W

Correct option is b
