It depends how far you travel.

If for instance you travel 1000 miles, then your speed is distance/time = 1000/5 = 200 mph

Answer:

first get a map and show how far you are from your original destination since the destination is not well identified where it is in Michigan so just get an approximate distance and then do the calculations

Determine the speed, wavelength, and frequency of light from a helium-neon laser as it travels through polystyrene. The waveleng

klemol [59]

Answer:

Speed:

$2.01x10^{8}m/s$

Wavelength:

$4.24x10^{-7}m$

Frequency:

$4.74x10^{14}Hz$

Explanation:

The speed of the laser as it travels through polystyrene can be determine by means of the equation of the refraction index:

$n = \frac{c}{v}$ (1)

Where c is the speed of light and v is the speed of the laser in the medium.

Therefore, v will be isolated from equation 1

$v = \frac{c}{n}$

$v = \frac{3x10^{8}m/s}{1.490}$

$v = 2.01x10^{8}m/s$

Hence, the speed of the laser has a value of $2.01x10^{8}m/s$

Frenquency:

Since, wavelength is the only one who depends on the media. Therefore the frequency in both medium will be the same.

To determine the frequency it can be used the following equation

$c = \nu \cdot \lambda$ (2)

Where c is the speed of light, $\nu$ is the frequency and $\lambda$ is the wavelength

Then, $\nu$ wil be isolated from equation 2.

$\nu = \frac{c}{\lambda}$ (3)

Before using equation 3 it is necessary to express $\lamba$ in units of meters.

$\lambda = 632.8nm . \frac{1m}{1x10^{9}nm}$ ⇒ $6.328x10^{-7}m$

$\nu = \frac{3x10^{8}m/s}{6.328x10^{-7}m}$

$\nu = 4.74x10^{14}s^{-1}$

$\nu = 4.74x10^{14}Hz$

Hence, the frequency of the laser has a value of $4.74x10^{14}Hz$

Wavelength:

To determine the wavelength it can be used:

$v = \nu \cdot \lambda$

$\lambda = \frac{v}{\nu}$

Where v is the speed of the laser through the polystyrene.

$\lambda = \frac{2.01x10^{8}m/s}{4.74x10^{14}s^{-1}}$

$\lambda = 4.24x10^{-7}m$

Hence, the wavelength of the laser has a value of $4.24x10^{-7}m$

A nickel (5 cent coin) has a mass of 5.0 g. How many nickels are there in a stack of nickels with a mass of 10.0 kg?

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

2000 nickels

Explanation:

One way to solve proportionality problems, direct and inverse: the simple 3 rule.

If the relationship between the magnitudes is direct (when one magnitude increases so does the other), the simple direct rule of three must be applied.

On the contrary, if the relationship between the magnitudes is inverse (when one magnitude increases the other decreases) the rule of three simple inverse applies.

The simple 3 rule is an operation that helps us quickly solve proportionality problems, both direct and inverse.

To make a simple rule of three we need 3 data: two magnitudes proportional to each other, and a third magnitude. From these, we will find out the fourth term of proportionality.

In the simple three rule, therefore, the proportionality relationship between two known values A and B is established, and knowing a third value C, a fourth value D is calculated.

A -> B

C -> D

Calculation

1 nickel --> 5 g

X? nickel --> 10000g

X = (10000 g * 1 nickel) / 5 g

X = 2000 nickels

2. Do you think the density of the ice affected the melting rate of the ice, or do you think adding the objects affected the mel

Setler [38]

The density of ice does not affect its melting rate. Adding objects will affect the melting rate.

A physical process called melting or fusing causes a substance to change its phase from a solid to a liquid. This happens when the solid's internal energy rises, usually as a result of heat or pressure being applied, which raises the substance's temperature to the melting point.
The term "density" refers to an extensive quality, which means that it is independent of the substance's concentration. Every substance in the world demonstrates its distinctive density. Since it does not fluctuate, it would not affect the rate of melting. The addition of the objects could speed up the process, though, as each one generates heat that could act as the mediating force for the melting process.
