The fastest thing in the whole universe is the speed of light in a vacuum. The speed is around 2.99 * $10^{8}$ . It is fastest in vacuum as vacuum does not contain any dust particles and is a hollow space so light travels faster. It also has a refractive index of 1 so it travels faster.

After vacuum light travels faster in air. Air has a refractive index of 1.0003.

After air, it travels faster in water. The speed is about 3/4 of its speed in a vacuum, or 225,000,000 meters per second. Speed slows in water because photons interact with atoms, which repeatedly absorb and re-emit them to the same direction. The refractive index of water is 1.33.

In which case does viscosity play a dominant role? Case A: a typical bacterium (size ~ 1 mm1 mm and velocity ~ 20 mm/s20 mm/s) i

My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

Case A

Explanation:

given,

size of bacteria = 1 mm x 1 mm

velocity = 20 mm/s

size of the swimmer = 1.5 m x 1.5 m

velocity of swimmer = 3 m/s

Viscous force

$F = \eta A \dfrac{dv}{dx}$

for the bacteria

$F = \eta \times 10^{-6}\times 20\times 10^{-3}$

$F =2\times 10^{-8} \eta\ N$

for the swimmer

$F = \eta \times 1.5^2\times 3$

$F =6.75 \eta\ N$

from the above force calculation

In case B inertial force that represent mass is more than the inertial force in case of bacteria.

Viscous force is dominant in case of bacteria.

So, In Case A viscous force will be dominant.

Which of the following explains why metallic bonding only occurs between

Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

D. Metallic atoms have valence shells that are mostly empty, which

means these atoms are more likely to give up electrons and allow

them to move freely.

Explanation:

Metals usually contain very few electrons in their valence shells hence they easily give up these few valence electrons to yield metal cations.

In the metallic bond, metal cations are held together by electrostatic attraction between the metal ions and a sea of mobile electrons.

Since metals give up their electrons easily, it is very easy for them to participate in metallic bonding. They give up their electrons easily because their valence shells are mostly empty, metal valence shells usually contain only a few electrons.

a red ball moves horizontally in a 30 m long tube what is the displacement of the red ball between 0s and 24s?

gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

30 metres.

Explanation:

Given that a red ball moves horizontally in a 30 m long tube.

Displacement is the distance travelled in a specific direction. It has both magnitude and direction.

Since the motion is horizontal, it moves is a certain direction.

Within the stipulation of time, the displacement will be the distance covered in the horizontal direction which is 30 metres.

Therefore, the displacement of the motion of the red ball is 30 metres.
