How long would it take a boat that started at rest to get to a velocity of 56 m/s if it was accelerating at 17 m/s/s?

Physics

Answer:

3.29 s

Explanation:

Using v = u + at where u = initial velocity of boat = 0 m/s since it starts at rest, v = final velocity of boat = 56 m/s, a = acceleration of boat = 17 m/s² and t = time taken to accelerate to 56 m/s.

So, v -= u + at

t = (v - u)/a

substituting the values of the variables, we have

t = (56 m/s - 0 m/s)/17 m/s²

= 56 m/s ÷ 17 m/s²

= 3.29 s

It will take the boat 3.29 s to accelerate to 56 m/s at an acceleration of 17 m/s²

Ozone is bad for the Earth and one of the causes of Global Warming?
boyakko [2]

Answer:

The outer Ozone is helpful. Ozone occurs in two layers of the atmosphere. The layer closest to the earth's surface is called the troposphere; ground-level or (bad) ozone is an air pollutant that is harmful to breathe and it damages crops, trees and other vegetation. It is a main ingredient of urban smog.

Why are there two fluoride ions in magnesium fluoride but only one fluoride ion in lithium fluoride
postnew [5]
This would be more of a chemistry question. Remember magnesium has a charge of 2+, and would need to hand off its two extra electrons. Fluorine can only take one electron at a time, so there needs to be two fluorines to take one magnesium's 2 electrons. 

With lithium, it has a +1 charge, so it has one extra electron, which it can hand off to just 1 fluorine atom. 

Another way of looking at this is: Mg^{2+} + 2F^{-} = MgF2  (the charges must balance out to zero)

Li^{+} + F^{-} = LiF (the charges balance out to zero)
