Which substances in the simulation have particles that are only atoms?
Travka [436]

All matter is made of particles; these can be single atoms or atoms chemically joined to make molecules. Using this fact, matter can be classified into three broad groups: elements, compounds and mixtures. In an element, all the atoms are of the same type. If more than one type of atom is chemically joined, then a compound has been formed. If more than one type of atom or molecule is contained in the same substance, and the particles aren't chemically joined, this is a mixture.

A car moves at a speed of 50 kilometers/hour. Its kinetic energy is 400 joules. If the same car moves at a speed of 100 kilomete
HACTEHA [7]

Explanation :

Speed of car, v_1=50\ km/h=13.8\ m/s

Kinetic energy of the car, KE_1=400\ J

Speed of car, v_2=100\ km/h=27.7\ m/s

Let KE_2 is the kinetic energy of the car when it is moving with 100 km/h.

\dfrac{KE_1}{KE_2}=\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{2}mv_1^2}{\dfrac{1}{2}mv_2^2}

\dfrac{KE_1}{KE_2}=\dfrac{v_1^2}{v_2^2}

KE_2=KE_1(\dfrac{v_2}{v_1})^2

KE_2=400\ J\times (\dfrac{27.7\ m/s}{13.8\ m/s})^2

KE_2=1611.6\ J  

Initial velocity of both cars are 0. Using third equation of motion :

So, S_1=\dfrac{v_1^2}{2a}=\dfrac{v_1t}{2}=\dfrac{v_1t}{2}

and S_2=\dfrac{v_2^2}{2a}=\dfrac{v_2t}{2}=\dfrac{v_2t}{2}

t is same. So,

\dfrac{S_1}{S_2}=\dfrac{50\ m/s}{100\ m/s}

\dfrac{S_1}{S_2}=\dfrac{1}{2}

S_2=2\ S_1

So, the braking distance at the faster speed is twice the braking distance at the slower speed.

Which of the following does not accurately describe the forces that exist with an atom? A. Electrons in an atom are attracted to
LenKa [72]
<span>A, B, and C are correct descriptions.

Choice-D does NOT accurately describe the forces
that exist within an atom.

Choice-D should say:
"Electrons positioned closer to the nucleus have a greater
attraction to the protons and are LESS likely to be discharged
from the atom than electrons farther away are."</span>

A cylindrical specimen of a nickel alloy having
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

L = 0.475 m = 475 mm = 18.7 inches

Explanation:

A cylindrical specimen of a nickel alloy having an elastic modulus of 207 GPa and an original diameter of 10.2 mm (0.40 in.) will experience only elastic deformation when a tensile load of 8900 N (2000 lb ) is applied. Compute the maximum length of the specimen before deformation if the maximum allowable elongation is 0.25 mm (0.010 in).

E = 207 GPa = 207*10⁹ Pa

D = 10.2 mm = 0.0102 m

P = 8900 N

ΔL = 0.25 mm = 2.5*10⁻⁴ m

L = ?

We can use the Equation of the Hooke's Law

ΔL = P*L / (A*E)    ⇒   L = ΔL*A*E / P

⇒   L = (2.5*10⁻⁴ m)*(π*(0.0102 m)²*0.25)*(207*10⁹ Pa) / (8900 N)

⇒   L = 0.475 m = 475 mm = 18.7 inches
