(a) The average speed must you have for the second half of the trip to meet your goal is 8 km/h.

(b) The value obtained (8 km/h) is not reasonable for the second half of the distance since the first half is 48km/h.

<h3>What is average velocity?</h3>

Average velocity is defined as the change in position or displacement (∆x) divided by the time intervals (∆t) in which the displacement occurs.

average velocity = total distance / total time

v = (d)/(0.5d/v₁ + 0.5d/v₂)

where;

  • v is the average velocity
  • v₁ is the average velocity during the first half
  • v₂ is the average velocity during the second half

90 km/h = (d) / (0.5d/48 + 0.5d/v₂)

90(0.5d/48 + 0.5d/v₂) = d

0.9375d + 0.5d/v₂ = d

d(0.9375 + 0.5/v₂) = d

0.9375 + 0.5/v₂ = 1

0.5/v₂ = 0.0625

v₂ = 0.5/0.0625

v₂ = 8 km/h

Thus, the average speed must you have for the second half of the trip to meet your goal is 8 km/h.

The value obtained (8 km/h) is not reasonable for the second half of the distance since the first half is 48km/h.

Viewed through a spectroscope, the spectral profile of a yellow street lamp has a narrow line in the yellow region of the visibl
muminat

Answer:

discrete lines are observed by the spectroscope, the emission of the lamp is of the ATOMIC source

Explanation:

Bulbs can emit light in several ways:

* When the emission is carried out by the heating of its filament, the bulb is called incandescent, in general its spectrum is similar to that of a black body, this is a continuous spectrum with a maximum dependent on the fourth power of the temperature of the filament.

* The emission can be by atomic transitions, in this case there is a discrete spectrum formed by the spectral lines of the material that forms the gas of the lamp, in general for the yellow emission the most used materials are mercury and sodium or a mixture of they.

Consequently, as discrete lines are observed by the spectroscope, the emission of the lamp is of the ATOMIC type

What is a terrestrial planet?
NISA [10]

Answer: Hi!

A terrestrial planet is composed of a solid substance like rock or earth. A few examples are our planet, Earth, and the red planet, Mars. These are the planets that are the closest to the sun. There are four terrestrial planets in total. The only known terrestrial planet that has life, however, is our own, Earth! Earth has the perfect conditions for supporting life forms.

Hope this helps!

How does earths magnetic field protect us from solar flares
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

Earth's magnetic field serves to deflect most of the solar wind, whose charged particles would otherwise strip away the ozone layer that protects the Earth from harmful ultraviolet radiation.
