Answer:

A. 16.67 m/s

Explanation:

Speed or velocity refers to the rate of change in distance over a change in time. That is;

Speed = Distance ÷ time

Where;

Speed is in metre/seconds

Distance is in metre

Time is in seconds.

In this question, Steve throws a football 50 meters in 3 seconds. The average speed can be calculated this:

S = D/t

Where; d = 50m, t = 3s

S = 50/3

S = 16.6666666

S = 16.67m/s

Firdavs [7]

Answer:

the decay of half of the nuclei only a half-life has passed ,  b) in rock time it is 1 108 years

Explanation:

The radioactive decay is given by

         N = N₀ e^{\lambda t}

If half of the atoms have decayed

       ½ N₀ = N₀ e^{\lambda t}

       ½ = e^{\lambda t} ₀

       Ln 0.5 = - λ t

       t = - ln 0.5 /λ

The definition of average life time is

      T_{1/2}= ln 2 / λ

       λ = ln 2 /  T_{1/2}

       λ = 0.693 / 100 10⁶

       λ = 0.693 10⁻⁸ years

We replace

       t = -ln 0.5 / 0.693 10⁻⁸

       t = 10⁸ years

We see that for the decay of half of the nuclei only a half-life has passed

b) in rock time it is 1 108 years

kati45 [8]

Answer:

The  coefficient of kinetic friction  \mu_k =  0.724

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  length of the lane is  l =  36.0 \  m

    The speed of the truck is  v  =  22.6\  m/s

     

Generally from the work-energy theorem we have that  

    \Delta KE  =   N  *  \mu_k *  l

Here N  is the normal force acting on the truck which is mathematically represented as

     \Delta KE is the change in kinetic energy which is mathematically represented as

        \Delta KE =  \frac{1}{2} *  m *  v^2

=>     \Delta KE =  0.5  *  m *  22.6^2

=>      \Delta KE =  255.38m

        255.38m =    m *  9.8  *  \mu_k *   36.0

=>     255.38  =    352.8  *  \mu_k

=>   \mu_k =  0.724
