<em><u>second</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>trip</u></em><em><u>=</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>3</u></em><em><u>0</u></em><em><u>0</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>miles</u></em><em><u>.</u></em>

<h3><em><u>to</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>find</u></em><em><u>:</u></em></h3>

<h3><em><u>solution</u></em><em><u>:</u></em></h3>

<em><u>Let speed of the 1st trip x miles / hr. and speed of the 2nd trip 3x / hr.</u></em>

<em><u>Speed = Distance/Time</u></em>

<em><u>So, times taken to covered a distance of 50 miles on his first trip = 50/x hr.</u></em>

<em><u>= 100/x hr</u></em>

<em><u>Therefore</u></em><em><u>,</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>his new time compared with the old time was twice as much.</u></em>

What is the speed of an 800 kg automobile if it has a kinetic energy of 9.00 x 10^J?
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Ek = 1/2 mv^2

9 × 10^4 = 1/2 × 800 × v^2

9 × 10^4/400 = 400 v^2 / 400

9 × 10^4/400 = v^2

√225 = v

15 ms⁻¹ = v

That's the only way I know how to work it out

I think in this case velocity and speed would be considered the same because me

s = d/t and v=d/t

one is distance travelled and the other is displacement of a body

Light rays from stars bend toward smaller angles as they enter Earth's atmosphere. a. Explain why this happens using Snell's law
Grace [21]

Answer:

Following are the answer to this question:

Explanation:

In option (a):

  • The principle of Snells informs us that as light travels from the less dense medium to a denser layer, like water to air or a thinner layer of the air to the thicker ones, it bent to usual — an abstract feature that would be on the surface of all objects. Mostly, on the contrary, glow shifts from a denser with a less dense medium. This angle between both the usual and the light conditions rays is referred to as the refractive angle.  
  • Throughout in scenario, the light from its stars in the upper orbit, the surface area of both the Earth tends to increase because as light flows from the outer atmosphere towards the Earth, it defined above, to a lesser angle.

In option (b):

  • Rays of light, that go directly down wouldn't bend, whilst also sun source which joins the upper orbit was reflected light from either a thicker distance and flex to the usual, following roughly the direction of the curve of the earth.  
  • Throughout the zenith specific position earlier in this thread, astronomical bodies appear throughout the right position while those close to a horizon seem to have been brightest than any of those close to the sky, and please find the attachment of the diagram.
