Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf a= \frac {2}{5} \ or \  0.4 \ m/s^2}}

Explanation:

Acceleration is found by dividing the change in velocity by the time. The formula is:

a= \frac {v_f-v_i}{t}

where v_f is the final velocity, v_i is the initial or starting velocity, and t is the time.

Her velocity changes <u>from</u> 2 meters per second <u>to</u> 4 meters per second in the 5 seconds. Therefore:

v_f=  4 \ m/s \\v_i= 2 \ m/s \\t=5 \ s

Substitute the values into the formula.

a= \frac { 4 \ m/s- 2 \ m/s}{5 \ s}

Solve the numerator and subtract.

a= \frac { 2 \ m/s}{5 \ s}

Divide.

a= \frac{2}{5} \ m/s/s= \frac{2}{5} \ m/s^2

This can also be written as a decimal.

a=0.4 \ m/s^2

Her average acceleration during the last 5 seconds of the race is 2/5 or 0.4 meters per square second.

Answer:

<h2><u>Solution</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h2>

Here

Initial velocity = 2 m/s

Final velocity = 4 m/s

Time = 5 sec

v = u + at

4 = 2 + a(5)

4 - 2 = a(5)

2 = 5a

2/5 = a

Hence, acceleration is 2/5 m/s²

The symbol for xenon (Xe) would be a part of the noble gas notation for the element antimony. cesium. radium. uranium.
nlexa [21]
The noble gas notation is the short or abbreviated form of the electron configuration.

It means that you use the symbol of the previous noble gas as part of the electron configuration of an element.

The gas noble previous to antimony is Kr, so you do not use Xe to write the electron configuration of Sb.

The gas noble previous to radium is Rn, so you do not use Xe to wirte the electron configuration of Ra.

The gas noble previous to uranium is Rn, so you do  not use Xe to write the electron configuration of U.

The gas noble previous to cesium is Xe, so you use Xe to write the noble notation for Sb. This is it: Cs: [Xe] 6s.

Answer: cesium

If the mixing ratio of a parcel of air is 6 grams per kilogram and the relative humidity is 25 percent, the saturation mixing ra
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer: -

24 grams per kilogram.

Explanation: -

We know that

The mixing ratio = actual (measured) mass of water vapor (in parcel) in grams / mass of dry (non water vapor) air (in parcel) in kilogram

The saturation mixing ratio = mass of water vapor required for saturation (in parcel) in grams/ mass of dry (non water vapor) air (in parcel) in kilograms

Relative humidity = actual (measured) water vapor content/ maximum possible water vapor amount (saturation)

Thus saturation mixing ratio = Mixing ratio / relative humidity

= 6 / (25/100)

= 24

Mr Singh is cooking using wo pans of oiling water. Both pans are made of steel, but one pan has a much thicker base than the oth
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

When either pan is heated, energy is transferred via conduction. Conduction is the process by which heat is transferred through a material, the average position of the particles remaining the same.

When the pans are heated, the particles in each pan vibrate faster and transfer this energy rapidly to neighboring particles.

The pan with a thicker base has more particles in it than the pan with lighter weight base. Note that, The rate of heat transfer is inversely proportional to the thickness of the material in question. Hence, the thicker the base, the more the number of particles present and the longer the time it takes for the food to cook.

Why does perchloric acid cause macromolecules to precipitate?
asambeis [7]
Perchloric acid (HCO₄) is one of strongest inorganic acids. Perchloric acid  precipitation is used to removes most of the protein present in the sample and stabilize many of the small molecule analytes. It can use also to precipitation glycogen, ATP, glutathione, antioxidants.
Perchloric acid donates protons to macromolecules and lower their solubility in water. Also perchloric acid is strong oxidizing agent and change oxidation number of elements.
