Ben walks 500 meters from his house to the corner store. He then walks back toward his house, but continues 200 meters past his

house to talk to a neighbor. It takes Ben 17 minutes from the time he leaves his house until he stops to talk to his neighbor. What is Ben’s average velocity?

Velocity = 71 meters per minute (MPM)
S stands for Speed
D means Distance
T represents Time
To calculate Speed, divide Distance by Time.

Answer:

0.196 meters per second (m/s)

Explanation:

Average velocity is the total displacement divided by the total time elapsed.

The total displacement is 500 m forward, then 500 m back, plus 200 m further past the house, summing up to -200 meters.

The total duration is 17 minutes, converted to 1020 seconds.

Therefore, average velocity equals -200 meters divided by 1020 seconds, which is approximately -0.196 m/s (absolute value 0.196 m/s).

Answer:

0.000047N

Explanation:

We know that

intensity (I) = P/ A

Where

P= power

A= Area

Thus, the power absorbed can be calculated as:

Power = Intensity x Area

This equals = 1.4 x 10^3 x(10)

Thus,

14000 Watts = 14 kWatt

However, the radiation pressure can be defined as

time-averaged intensity divided by the speed of light in a vacuum

So,

P = (1.4 x 1000)/c

Also,

F= P x A

Thus,

((1.4 x 1000)/(3 x10^8)) x 10

This results in

=0.000046666N

Rounded to two significant figures gives us

=0.000047 N

A tennis ball bounces on the floor three times. If each time it loses 22.0% of its energy due to heating, how high does it rise
Ostrovityanka [3204]

Answer:

H = 109.14 cm

Explanation:

Given,                                                            

Assume that the total energy equals 1 unit.                                

Energy remaining after the first collision = 0.78 x 1 unit

Balance after the first impact = 0.78 units

Remaining energy after the second impact = 0.78 ^2 units

Balance after the second impact = 0.6084 units

Remaining energy after the third impact = 0.78 ^3 units

Balance after the third impact = 0.475 units

The height reached after the third collision is equivalent to the remaining energy.

Let H denote the height achieved after three bounces.

0.475 (m g h) = m g H                  

H = 0.475 x h                                    

H = 0.475 x 2.3 m                          

H = 1.0914 m                      

H = 109.14 cm

A nerve signal is transmitted through a neuron when an excess of Na+ ions suddenly enters the axon, a long cylindrical part of t
Yuliya22 [3333]

Answer:

1.32.225 N/C, moving away from the point charge

2. 8.972*10^-12 C

3. the field is oriented away from the axon

Explanation:

The calculation for the electric field is illustrated below:

E = k*|q|/r²

Where:

E = electric field; k = 8.98755*10⁹ N*m²/C²; r = distance separating the field being measured from the point charge = 0.05 m; q = point charge

For a length of 0.100 m of the axon, the value of q is calculated as:

q = (5.6*10¹¹)*(+e)*(0.001)

+e = charge of an electron = 1.60217*10^-19 C

Therefore:

q = (5.6*10¹¹)*(1.60217*10^-19)*(0.0001) = 8.972*10^-12 C

Consequently:

E = (8.98755*10⁹)*(8.972*10^-12)/0.05² = 32.255 N/C

A positive point charge produces an electric field that radiates outward, while a negative point charge creates an electric field directed inward.

Which statements describe properties of stars check all that apply
Keith_Richards [3271]

Answer:

Stars generate energy by the process of nuclear fusion.

They are large entities composed of gaseous elements.

The main constituents of stars are hydrogen and helium.

Explanation:

Stars are colossal objects with extensive gravitational forces causing them to contract, which allows fusion to take place: the atomic nuclei in the star's core are drawn very close together due to gravity and elevated temperatures, leading to the fusion reaction. This fusion serves as the energy output for a star.

Conversely, it is true that stars predominantly consist of hydrogen and helium (two hydrogen nuclei can fuse to become helium), which implies that a star is essentially an enormous ball of gas without a solid surface suitable for standing on.

As for the presence of water on a star, it is simply impossible. The extreme temperatures found in stars are far too high for water to exist in any liquid state on their surfaces.
