To convert km to AU, we divide 225,000,000 km by the factor of 1.5 x 10^8 = 150,000,000 km. This gives us 225,000,000 / 150,000,000 = 1.5 AU. Therefore, the distance between Earth and Mars in AU is 1.5 AU.
The AU is not equivalent to a light-year. A light-year is equivalent to around 9.5 x 10^12 kilometers.

How many electrons does a neutral atom of sudium-25 have
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

Option A. 11

Explanation:

The atomic number of an element does not change.

Recall:

Atomic number = proton number

If the atom is neutral, then,

Proton number = electron number

Since the element is sodium, then, the atomic number of sodium–25 is 11.

Also, we were told to obtain the electrons of a neutral atom of sodium–25

Therefore,

Atomic number = proton number = 11

Since the atom is neutral,

Proton number = electron number = 11

Kiran drove from City A to City B, a distance of 228 mi. She increased her speed by 12 mi/h for the 400-mi trip from City B to C
Degger [83]

Answer:

From city A to city B her speed was 38 mi/h

Explanation:

The traveled distance can be calculated using this equation:

From city A to city B

228 mi = v · t₁

Where:

v = velocity

t₁ = time it took Kiran to travel the 228 mi from city A to city B

From city B to city C

400 mi = (v + 12 mi/h) · t₂

We also know that the entire trip took 14 h, then:

t₁ + t₂ = 14 h

So, we have a system of three equations with three unknwons:

228 mi = v · t₁

400 mi = (v + 12 mi/h) · t₂

t₁ + t₂ = 14 h

Let´s solve the third equation for t₁:

t₁ = 14 h - t₂

Now let´s replace t₁ in the first equation and solve it for t₂

228 mi = v · t₁

228 mi = v · (14 h - t₂)

228 mi/v - 14 h =  - t₂

t₂ = 14 h - 228 mi/v

Now let´s replace t₂ in the second equation:

400 mi = (v + 12 mi/h) · t₂

400 mi = (v + 12 mi/h) · (14 h - 228 mi/v)

400 mi = 14 h · v - 228 mi + 168 mi - 2736 mi²/(v · h)

400 mi = 14 h · v - 60 mi - 2736 mi²/(v · h)

460 mi = 14 h · v - 2736 mi²/(v · h)

Multiplicate by v both sides of the equation:

460 mi · v = 14 h · v² - 2736 mi²/h

0 = 14 h · v² - 460 mi · v - 2737 mi²/h

Solving the quadratic equation:

v = 38 mi/h

(The other solution of the equation is negative, and therefore discarded)

From city A to city B her speed was 38 mi/h

The acceleration due to gravity for any object, including 1 washer on the string, is always assumed to be m/s2. The mass of 3 wa
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

The force will increase in proportion to the mass of the objects

Explanation:

The acceleration due to gravity is always the same. It is expressed in meters per second squared or m/s². The figure of 9.81 m/s² is an average value that was taken after calculating the acceleration under different surfaces. In fact, the acceleration differs depending on the shape of the part of the earth in relation to the earth's magnetic field and force.

Thus, if one washer was 20 kg, the acceleration being 9.81 m/s² the weight will be:

F = ma

  = 20 * 9.81\\= 196.2 N

If there are there washers, the weight will be:

F = 3 * 20 * 9.81

  = 588.6 N
