<span>The correct answer is C:Waves transfer energy, but not matter. A wave does not move matter in the direction of its propagation. It only transfers energy just like the ocean wave traveling many miles away with the water just moving up and down.</span>

A car accelerates in the +x direction from rest with a constant acceleration of a1 = 1.62 m/s2 for t1 = 20 s. At that point the

arsen [322]

Total displacement of the car: 405 m

Explanation:

The first part of the motion of the car is a uniformly accelerated motion, so we can use the suvat equation

$s_1=ut_1+\frac{1}{2}a_1 t_1^2$

where:

u = 0 is the initial velocity (the car starts from rest)

$t_1 = 20 s$ is the time elapsed in the 1st part

$a_1=1.62 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of the car in the 1st part

$s_1$ is the displacement of the car in the 1st part

Solving for $s_1$ ,

$s_1=0+\frac{1}{2}(1.62)(20)^2=324 m$

We can also find the velocity of the car after these 20 seconds using the equation:

$v_1 = u +a_1 t_1 = 0 + (1.62)(20)=32.4 m/s$

Now we can find the distance covered by the car in the 2nd part, where it decelerates after having seen the tree limb on the road. We can do it by using the suvat equation:

$s_2 = (\frac{v_1 + v_2}{2})t_2$

where:

$v_1=32.4 m/s$ is the initial velocity at the beginning of the 2nd phase

$v_2=0$ is the final velocity (the car comes to a stop)

$t_2=5 s$ is the time elapsed in the 2nd phase

Substituting,

$s_2=\frac{32.4+0}{2}(5)=81 m$

So, the total displacement of the car is

$s=s_1+s_2=324+81=405 m$

Calculate the work done by the cyclist when his power output is 200 W for 1800 seconds.

Kobotan [32]

Answer:

3.6 × 10^5 J

Explanation:

Work Done = Energy

Energy = Power × time

Energy = 200 × 1800

= 360000 J

W =

$3.6 \times 10 {}^{5} j$

The velocity of an object is the distance it travels per unit time. Suppose the velocity of a gilding bird is measured to be 52.

Elanso [62]

Answer:

$d=7.115s$

Explanation:

What problem says can be written mathematically as:

$v=\frac{d}{t}$

Where:

$v=Velocity\\t=Time\\d=Distance$

The problem itself it's really simple, we only need to replace the data provided in the previous equation, but first, let's convert the units of the velocity from cm/s to m/s because we have to work with the same units and working in meters is the most apropiate action, because is the base unit of length in the International System of Units:

$52\frac{cm}{s} *\frac{1m}{100cm} =0.52\frac{m}{s}$

Now, we can replace the data in the equation and find the time it will take the bird to travel 3.7 m:

$0.52=\frac{3.7}{t}$

Solving for t, multiplying by t both sides, and dividing by 0.52 both sides:

$t=\frac{3.7}{0.52} =7.115384615s\approx7.115s$
