Answer:

D: Water is polar, so it can form attractions to and pull apart molecules of many types of substances.

Explanation:

Water is an excellent solvent simply because its polar water molecules usually form hydrogen bonds with ions and polar molecules, thereby allowing the ionic and polar covalent compounds to easily disperse easily in water.

Thus, the correct option is; D

A car of mass 2400kg moving at 20 m/s slams into a cement wall and comes to a halt?

Brut [27]

Impulse = change in momentum

The car's momentum was (mass) x (speed)

Momentum = (2400 kg) x (20 m/s)

Momentum = 48,000 km-m/s

To completely stop the car, the impulse = -48,000 km-m/s .

A 400-kg object has a 100-Newton rightward net force being applied to it. What is the magnitude of the rightward acceleration on

aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

The answer to your question is a = 0.25 m/s²

Explanation:

Data

mass = m = 400 kg

Force = F = 100 N

acceleration = a = ? m/s²

Process

To solve this problem use Newton's second law that states that the force applied to an object is directly proportional to the mass of the body times its acceleration.

Formula

F = ma

solve for a

a = $\frac{F}{m}$
