A car drives to the east in a time of 4 hours. Then, immediately (not realistic, but just assume this is the case for this probl
diamong [38]

Answer:

Average speed in east direction speed=\frac{distance}{time}=\frac{28}{4}=7km/hr            

Explanation:

We have given average speed of the entire trip = 5 km/hr

First the car 4 hours then travels 12 km in 4 hours

So total time of the trip = 4+4 = 8 hours

So total distance traveled in the trip d=speed\times time = 5\times 8=40km

As the car travel 12 km in 4 hours to the west

So distance traveled in 4 hour in east = 40 -12 = 28 km

Time in east direction = 4 hour

So average speed in east direction speed=\frac{distance}{time}=\frac{28}{4}=7km/hr

What part causes the disc brake caliper piston to retract when the brakes are released?
Orlov [11]
The part that causes the disc caliper piston to retract when the brakes are released is the square-cut O-ring.
The square cut seal is the most important part of a disc brake caliper, for keeping the brake behind the piston so that when you step on the brake pedal, it releases a pressure that applied to the piston which in return applies the pad to the rotor.

A lawyer drives from her​ home, located 1 mile east and 8 miles north of the town​ courthouse, to her​ office, located 4 miles w
givi [52]

Answer:

d = 13 miles

Explanation:

Lets say the position of court house is origin in this case

her office is located at 4 miles west and 4 miles south of court house

so here we have coordinate of the office with respect to court house is given as

r_1 = (-4\hat i - 4\hat j)

now the position of her home is located at 1 miles east and 8 miles north of the court house

so the coordinates of her home is given as

r_2 = (1\hat i + 8 \hat j)

now the change in the position is given as the distance between office and home

d = r_2 - r_1

d = 5 \hat i + 12 \hat j

d = \sqrt{5^2 + 12^2} = 13 miles

A 1-kg iron frying pan is placed on a stove. The pan increases from 20°C to 250°C. If the same amount of heat is added to a pan
Nesterboy [21]

Answer;

The temperature change for the second pan will be lower compared to the temperature change of the first pan

Explanation;

-The quantity of heat is given by multiplying mass by specific heat and by temperature change.

That is; Q = mcΔT

This means; the quantity of heat depends on the mass, specific heat capacity of a substance and also the change in temperature.

-Maintaining the same quantity of heat, with another pan of the same mass and greater specific heat capacity would mean that the change in temperature would be much less lower.

S_A_V [24]

The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

The compound magnesium phosphate has the chemical formula Mg3(PO4)2. In this compound, phosphorus and oxygen act together as one charged particle, which is connected to magnesium, the other charged particle. What does the 2 mean in the formula 5Mg3(PO4)2? A. There are two elements in magnesium phosphate. B. There are two molecules of magnesium phosphate. C. There are two magnesium ions in a molecule of magnesium phosphate. D. There are two phosphate ions in a molecule of magnesium phosphate.

Answer:

There are two phosphate ions in a molecule of magnesium phosphate.

Explanation:

The compound magnesium phosphate is an ionic compound. Ionic compounds always consists of two ions, a positive ion and a negative ion.

In this case, the positive ion is Mg^2+ while the negative ion is PO4^3-.

The subscript, 2 after the formula of the phosphate ion means that there are two phosphate ions in each formula unit of magnesium phosphate.
