The runners have just started a race. They started at rest and are getting faster.
What statement best describes the motion of the runners at the beginning of the race?
A.
Acceleration is positive and speed is increasing.
B.
Acceleration and speed both remain constant.
C.
Velocity and speed both remain constant.
D.
Velocity remains the same and speed is positive.

Answers

Answer 1

A.  Acceleration is positive and speed is increasing.

Further explanation

The motion performed by a runner is part of a uniformly accelerated motion with constant acceleration.

Equation used  

[tex]\tt \boxed{\bold{v_f=v_i+at}}[/tex]  

vf = final velocity  

vi = vo = initial velocity  

When a runner moves from rest, his speed will increase from being at rest (vi=0) and then move with a constant acceleration(a), and as soon as he crosses the finish line his acceleration will decrease (experience a deceleration ⇒a=- ) and decrease his speed until it finally stops

Velocity and speed are different because velocity itself is a vector quantity that takes into account direction and displacement, while speed is a scalar quantity (only distance).

So the speed does not take positive or negative values because it involves direction, while acceleration takes positive and negative values (deceleration) because it takes direction.

Which element (Na or Cl) is more likely to steal an outer electron from the other?

Answers

Answer:

Cl is more likely to than Na

Explanation:

The question asks for the element more take up an electron from the other

The ability of an atom to take take or give electrons in a chemical reaction, depends on its electron affinity and ionization energy, respectively

Chlorine, Cl, has the highest electron affinity in the periodic table which makes it attract electrons more towards itself

Sodium, Na, has a low ionization energy (about 2/5 of that of chlorine) than chlorine, Cl, making sodium more readily able to give its valence electron in a reaction

Therefore, Cl is more likely to take up an outer electron from Na.

Answers

Answer:

Rosalind Elsie Franklin (25 July 1920 – 16 April 1958)was a British biophysicist and X-ray crystallographer who made critical contributions to the understanding of the fine molecular structures of DNA, RNA, viruses, coal and graphite. The DNA work achieved the most fame because DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) plays essential roles in cell metabolism and genetics, and the discovery of its structure helped scientists understand how genetic information is passed from parents to children.

rosalindfranklin

Franklin is best known for her work on the X-ray diffraction images of DNA which led to discovery of DNA double helix. Her data, according to Francis Crick, was "the data we actually used" to formulate Crick and Watson's 1953 hypothesis regarding the structure of DNA.Franklin's X-ray diffraction image confirming the helical structure of DNA were shown to Watson without her approval or knowledge. Though this image and her accurate interpretation of the data provided valuable insight into the DNA structure, Franklin's scientific contributions to the discovery of the double helix are often overlooked. Unpublished drafts of her papers (written just as she was arranging to leave King's College London) show that she had independently determined the overall B-form of the DNA helix and the location of the phosphate groups on the outside of the structure. However, her work was published third, in the series of three DNA Nature articles, led by the paper of Watson and Crick which only hinted at her contribution to their hypothesis.

After finishing her portion of the DNA work, Franklin led pioneering work on the tobacco mosaic and polio viruses. She died in 1958 at the age of 37 from complications arising from ovarian cancer.

Calculate the energy and frequency of red light having a wavelength of 6.55 x 10⁻7m.

Answers

Answer:

E = 3.035× 10-¹⁹J = 1.9eV

f = 4.58 × 10¹⁴Hz

Explanation:

wavelength = 6.55 × 10-⁷m

c = 3 × 10⁸m/s

f = ?

E = ?

a) f = c/wavelength

f = 3 × 10⁸/6.55 × 10-⁷

f = 4.58 × 10¹⁴Hz

b) E = hc/wavelength

E = 6.626×10-³⁴ × 3 × 10⁸/ 6.55 × 10-⁷

E = 3.035 × 10-¹⁹J

1ev = 1.6 × 10-¹⁹J

Therefore E = 3.035/1.6 = 1.9eV

Explanation:

In acidic condition Blue litmus turns red

In basic condition Red litmus turns Blue

In order to test an Acidic solution we need Blue litmus.

Wasim Dipped the blue litmus in the solution : it will turn red and shows acid

Akram  Dipped the red litmus in the solution : No it will not show, it's a test for base

Neha: Dipped both the blue and the red litmus in the solution one after other.

          Blue litmus will turn red which will show Acidic nature, after that Adding Red litmus in it will not show any change as Red litmus only changes in Basic condition.

Therefore,  Wasim and Nehra did the Proper  testing  

how do the mass and height of an object affect the gravitational potential energy?

A. height has great a greater effect than mass gravitational potential energy

B. mass and height have the same effect on gravitational potential energy.

C. height has almost 10 times the effect on gravitational potential energy then mass has.

D. Mass has a greater effect than height on gravitational potential energy.​

Answers

Answer:

B. mass and height have the same effect on gravitational potential energy.

Explanation:

Both mass and height have the same effect on the gravitational potential energy of body.

Gravitational potential energy is the energy of a body due to that of another body. It usually the energy at rest in a body.

It is mathematically expressed as;

 G.P.E  = m x g x h

m is the mass

g is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height

We see that both the height and mass are directly proportional to the gravitational potential energy and as such, they have the same effect.

hour
is this?
This is a conversion.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Speed = 670.56 \frac{m}{min}[/tex]

Explanation:

Given

[tex]Speed = \frac{25 mi}{hr}[/tex]

Required

Convert to meters per minutes

[tex]Speed = \frac{25 mi}{hr}[/tex]

Start by converting the speed from miles to meters

[tex]1\ mile = 1609.34\ meters.[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]Speed = \frac{25 * 1609.34\ m}{hr}[/tex]

[tex]Speed = \frac{40233.5\ m}{hr}[/tex]

Next, we convert time from hours to minutes

[tex]1\ hour = 60\ minutes[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]Speed = \frac{40233.5\ m}{60\ min}[/tex]

[tex]Speed = 670.56 \frac{m}{min}[/tex]

Hence, the equivalent of 25 miles per hour is 670.56 meters per minutes

How does an atom become charged?
-How does an atom get a positive charge?
-How does an atom get a negative charge?
-Can an atom get a charge with a change of particles in
the nucleus? Explain, please.

Answers

Answer:

An atom becomes charged when there is an unequal amount of positive and negative particles in the nucleus.

An atom gets a positive charge when there is an increase in protons or a decrease in electrons, such that there are more protons than electrons in the nucleus.

An atom gets a negative charge when there is an increase in electrons or a decrease in protons, such that there are more electrons than protons in the nucleus.

An atom can get a charge with a change of particles in the nucleus if that change results in an uneven number of protons and electrons.

Explanation:

Because protons are positively charged particles and electrons are negatively charged particles, a neutral atom has an equal amount of protons and electrons, so that the opposite charges of the particles cancel each other out.

However, if there is an unequal amount of protons or electrons in the nucleus, the charge of the particles will no longer be canceled out, and the atom as a whole will take on a positive or negative charge.

Where is the maritime polar formed?

The north Pacific Ocean produces the majority of the maritime polar air masses that affect the United States. However, maritime polar air occasionally forms in the North Atlantic Ocean and moves into the New England states.

In the winter, for example, an arctic air mass can move over the ocean, picking up some warmth and moisture from the warmer ocean and transforming into a maritime polar air mass (mP), which is still fairly cold but contains moisture.

In the image, the maritime polar has formed immediately north of Antarctica. The temperature of mP air varies between just above freezing and below 70 degrees Fahrenheit. As it moves over elevated terrain, mP air changes. Mountain ranges on the windward side

Answers

Explanation:

It suggests that the extranuclear part consists of electrons in specific spherical orbits around the nucleus.

The concept is based on the premise that the electrons move round the nucleus in certain permissible orbits or energy levels. The ground state is the lowest energy state available to the electrons. It is the most stable state. The excited state is any higher energy level than the ground state. An electron in an energy level has a definite amount of energy associated with it at that level. The electron can undergo transitions from one level to another. This way energy of an electron is quantized to each level.
