- Over the weekend you go for an urban hike, traveling 3 miles north then 4 miles west before stopping to take a break. If this

hike takes 1 hour, what is your average velocity during that time? - You leave your house to go for a drive to clear your head, driving 10 miles over the course of 30 minutes before arriving back home. What is your average velocity?

Answer:

A.) 5 mph

B.) 20 mph

Explanation:

Given that you are traveling 3 miles north then 4 miles west before stopping to take a break. If this hike takes 1 hour,

Let's first calculate the displacement be using pythagorean theorem

D = sqrt ( 3^2 + 4^2 )

D = sqrt ( 9 + 16 )

D = sqrt ( 25 )

D = 5

Average velocity = displacement/time

Average velocity = 5/1

Average velocity = 5 mph

Therefore, your average velocity during that time is 5 mph

- You leave your house to go for a drive to clear your head, driving 10 miles over the course of 30 minutes before arriving back home. 

Average velocity = 10/ 0.5

Average velocity = 20 mph

What is Snell law of refraction????​
Morgarella [4.7K]

\huge\mathbb\colorbox{black}{\color{white}{⏫FORMULA⏫}}

\huge\red {\underline { \overline{ \bf \mid\: \:  \: ↓ANSWER↓ \: \: \mid}}}

Explanation:

Snell's law (also known as Snell–Descartes law and the law of refraction) is a formula used to describe the relationship between the angles of incidence and refraction, when referring to light or other waves passing through a boundary between two different isotropic media, such as water, glass, or air.

Match each scientist with the contribution he made to the arrangement of elements in the periodic table
Sergeeva-Olga [200]
  • Dmitri Mendeleev- arranged elements according to their

atomic mass

  • Johann Wolfgang Dobereiner-created groups of three elements,

each based on similar properties

  • John Newlands-used patterns to predict undiscovered

elements

  • Antoine Lavoisier-divided elements into four categories

Explanation:

The periodic table or the table depicting the arrangement of various elements has a long history. Several of the scientist starting from Lavoisier to Mendeleev contributed to the table in their might. The present table has been an evolution of the previous tables over their shortcomings.

Some of the notable contributions include-

  • Mendeleev- Mendeleev arranged the elements in order of atomic mass rather than atomic mass. Through this, he also discovered new elements.
  • Newlands- He formulated the Newland law of octaves similar to musical notation.
  • Lavoisier- Lavoisier divided the elements into various categories and also defined elements.
  • Dobereiner- He formulated the triad law which encapsulated that certain group of elements showed similar properties, hence can be grouped together.

A block with mass M = 3 kg is moving on a flat surface with constant speed v1 = 12 m/s. A bullet with mass m = 0,1 kg is shot at
adelina 88 [10]

The speed does the block move after it is hit by the bullet that remains stuck inside the block will be 23.7 m/sec and it takes 12.07 seconds to stop.

<h3>What is the law of conservation of momentum?</h3>

According to the law of conservation of momentum, the momentum of the body before the collision is always equal to the momentum of the body after the collision.

Apply the law of conservation of momentum principle;

m₁v₁+m₂v₂cosΘ =(m₁+m₂)V

3 kg ×  12 m/s +  0,1 kg × 400 m/s cos 20° = (3+0.1)V

36 + 40 cos 20° = 3.1 V

V=23.7 m/sec

The time it takes to stop when the friction coefficient between the block and the surface is 0.2 is found as;

V = u +at

V = 0+ μgt

23..7=0.2× 9.81 ×t

t=12.07 sec

Hence, it takes 12.07 seconds to stop.
