Average speed = (total distance covered) / (time to cover the distance) .

Total distance covered = (55 km + 52 km) = 107 km

Time to cover the distance = (2 hrs + 5 hrs) = 7 hrs

Average speed = (107 km) / (7 hrs)

Average speed = 15.29 km/hour

The formula for working out speed is distance ÷ time.

55 km ÷ 2 hours = 27.5 km/h (average speed for first part of journey)

52km ÷ 5 hours = 10.4 km/h (average speed for second part of journey)

(27.5 + 10.4) ÷ 2 = 18.95 km/h (average speed throughout the journey)

A bat can detect small objects, such as an insect, whose size is approximately equal to one wavelength of the sound the bat make
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

6.136 mm

Explanation:

given,

frequency emitted by the bat = 5.59 x 10⁴ Hz

speed of sound = 343 m/s

smallest insect bat can hear  will be equal to the wavelength  of the sound the bat make.

\lambda = \dfrac{v}{f}

\lambda = \dfrac{343}{5.59\times 10^4}

\lambda = 6.136\times 10^{-3}}

λ = 6.136 mm

so, the smallest size of insect that bat can hear is equal to 6.136 mm

What is the wavelength of a wave that has a frequency of 841 Hz if the speed of the wave is 457 m/s?
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 0.54 m</h3>

Explanation:

The wavelength of a wave can be found by using the formula

\lambda =  \frac{c}{f}  \\

where

c is the velocity

f is the frequency

So we have

\lambda =  \frac{457}{841}  \\  = 0.543400713...

We have the final answer as

<h3>0.54 m</h3>

Hope this helps you

When a forklift raises an object, is it doing positive or negative work on the object? Which type of work is the force of gravit
Alja [10]

Answer: B

The forklift is doing positive work on the object because the direction of force and the direction of motion are the same. The force of gravity is doing negative work on the object because it is acting opposite to the direction of motion. 

Explanation: The work done in lifting an object up is positive when the direction of the displacement and the force applied are in the same direction.

The work will be negative if force and direction of the motion are opposite to each other.

Also, force of gravity is considered positive when an object is moving toward the gravity. That is coming downward. Otherwise, it's negative when it's moving in the opposite direction.

When a forklift raises an object, the forklift is doing positive work on the object because the direction of force and the direction of motion are the same. The force of gravity is doing negative work on the object because it is acting opposite to the direction of motion.

Alana drew a diagram to compare the life cycles of low-mass and high-mass stars.
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Both low and high mass stars begin as nebulae, then become protostars.  Both use nuclear fusion to form hydrogen in the main sequence.

The differences are that low mass stars have longer life cycles and become white dwarfs.  High mass stars have shorter life cycles and undergo supernova explosions.
