A. more quickly. example lightning (light) comes first in a storm. then thunder (sound) comes after

It is A Because Light doesn't need a medium but sound does so Light is more free than sound so light is going to be quicker

We are running late for school and we want to make our 0.5 kg tea (it’s at 90 C) colder. Let’s assume we can drink tea when it’s

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

x=0.154kg

Explanation:

(x*L)+(0.5kg*4200*50)+(x*4200*(-50)=0

(x*333 000J/kg*c)+(0.5kg*4200J/kg*C*(-40C))+(x*4200J/kg*C*50C)=0

As a wave moves through a medium, particles are displaced and (2 points)

Scorpion4ik [409]

As a wave moves through a medium, particles are displaced and return to their normal position after the wave passes.

Explanation:

A wave is a traveling disturbance that carries energy from one location to another. All waves move in straight lines outward and away from the source of a disturbance. Like the radiating circular ripples, the waves of water carry energy away from where a rock was dropped into the pond.

Waves can move as a single pulse or as a continuous series of waves, carrying energy away from its source. A pulse is a single disturbance, wave, or ripple that moves outward from the point of disturbance. A train of waves are many waves emitted over and over again from a single source.

As waves travel through matter, they will temporarily displace the molecules or particles in matter up-and-down or side-to-side. Waves move the energy but they do not carry the matter with them longitudinally as they move through matter. Once the disturbance passes, the medium will return to its original state or position.

Therefore, as the waves move through a medium, particles are displaced and return to their normal position after the wave passes.

You are the juror of a case involving a drunken driver whose 1041 kg sports car ran into a stationary 1928 kg station wagon stop

mina [271]

1. Find the force of friction between the sports car and the station wagon stuck together and the road. The total mass m = 1928kg + 1041kg = 2969kg. The only force in the x-direction is friction: F = μ*N = μ * m * g
2. Find the acceleration due to friction:
F = m*a = μ * m * g => a = μ * g = 0.6 * 9.81
3. Find the time it took the two cars stuck together to slide 12m:
x = 0.5*a*t²
t = sqrt(2*x / a) = sqrt(2 * x / (μ * g) )
4. Find the initial velocity of the two cars:
v = a*t = μ * g * sqrt(2 * x / (μ * g) ) = sqrt( 2 * x * μ * g)
5. Use the initial velocity of the two cars combined to find the velocity of the sports car. Momentum must be conserved:

m₁ mass of sports car
v₁ velocity of sports car before the crash
m₂ mass of station wagon
v₂ velocity of station wagon before the crash = 0
v velocity after the crash

m₁*v₁ + m₂*v₂ = (m₁+m₂) * v = m₁*v₁
v₁ = (m₁+m₂) * v / m₁ = (m₁+m₂) * sqrt( 2 * x * μ * g) / m₁
v₁ = 33.9 m/s
