The expected speed is v = 85.5 km/h
 v = 85.5 km/h = (85.5 km/h)*(0.2778 (m/s)/(km/h)) = 23.75 m/s

If there is an uncertainty of 2 meters in measuring the position, then within a 1-second time interval:
The lower measurement for the speed is v₁ = 21.75 m/s,
The upper measurement for the speed is v₂ = 25.75 m/s.
The range of variation is
Δv = v₂ - v₁ = 4 m/s

The uncertainty in measuring the speed is
Δv/v = 4/23.75 = 0.1684 = 16.84%

Answer: 16.8%

All acids have the ___ ion in common
otez555 [7]

Answer: hydrogen

All acids have the hydrogen ion in common

Explanation:

According to Arrhenius theory, an acid is a substance which dissociate in water to produce hydrogen ions, H+;

For example: HCl --> H+ + Cl-

while a base is a substance which gives hydroxide ions, OH-, in water

For example: NaOH(s) --> Na+(aq) + OH-(aq)

Thus, all acids have the hydrogen ion in common
