of a match when it gets hot enough;

-- the explosion of a tiny bit of gunpowder that can send
a bullet many miles;

that moves a car;

A small rubber ball is launched by a compressed-air cannon from ground level with an initial speed of 11.8 m/s directly upward.

Fantom [35]

Answer:

7.09683 m

1.20285 s

2.4057 s

11.8 m/s

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s² (negative up, positive down)

From equation of motion we have

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{0^2-11.8^2}{2\times -9.81}\\\Rightarrow s=7.09683\ m$

The maximum height above the ground that the ball reaches is 7.09683 m

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{v-u}{a}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{0-11.8}{-9.81}\\\Rightarrow t=1.20285\ s$

Time taken to go up is 1.20285 s it will take the same time to come down so total time taken to reach the ground after it is shot is 1.20285+1.20285 = 2.4057 s

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow v=0+9.81\times 1.20285\\\Rightarrow v=11.8\ m/s$

The velocity just before it hits the ground is 11.8 m/s

How many protons are in Calcium? (* Hint: The Atomic number of Calcium is 20).

ryzh [129]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: 20

Explanation:

Atomic number is the number of proton and atom has. Each element has a specific number of protons, if the number of protons change, then this is a new element.

Mass number is the number of protons and neutrons and atom has.

Mass number = protons + neutrons

Data

Number of protons = ?

Atomic number = 20

Then,

atomic number = number of protons = 20

Only two horizontal forces act on a 3.0 kg body that can move over a frictionless floor. one force is 9.0 n, acting due east, an

Zolol [24]

The first thing you should do for this case is to find the horizontal and vertical components of the forces acting on the body.
We have then:
Horizontal = 9-9.2cos (58) = 4.124742769 N.
Vertical = 9.2sin (58) = 7.802042485 N
Then, the resulting net force is:
F = √ ((4.124742769) ^ 2 + (7.802042485) ^ 2) = 8.825268826 N
Then by definition:
F = m * a
Clearing the acceleration:
a = F / m
a = (8.825268826) / (3.0) = 2.941756275 m / s ^ 2
answer:
The magnitude of the body's acceleration is
2.941756275 m / s ^ 2

Your friend says an appliance uses energy. How would you correct his statement?

madreJ [45]

Answer:

Not all appliances run on energy. Some of them run on gas. Some both. It just depends on the age of the appliance, the make of the appliance, and the company who made it.

Which produces more energy:

Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

a) uranium

b) deuterium

Explanation:

For the first question, you can actually know this by simple logic. The nucleus of Ucranium, has more energy than a pair of deuterium. Ucranium has a mass number and atomic mass higher than deuterium, therefore, when you do a fission with ucranium in it's nucleous, this would be in energy higher than the deuterium.

However, in terms of mass only, the fissioning of 1 gram of Deuterium will produce more energy than 1 gram of uranium, basically because deuterium is lighter and has a lower molecular weight than ucranium. This means that because of this lower molecular weight, in 1 gram of deuterium will contain more number of atoms than in 1 g of uranium. The interaction with these atoms, will produce more energy than the energy produced by uranium.
