A rifle is aimed horizontally at a target 50.0 m away. The bullet hits the target 2.90 cm below the aim point. . . Whats the bul
Marina CMI [18]
The problem ask to calculate the bullet's flight time and the bullet's speed as it left the barrel. So base on the problem, the answer would be that the flight time is 0.076 seconds and the speed of the bullet is 657.9 m/s. I hope you are satisfied with my answer and feel free to ask for more if you have questions and further clarifications.

Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

1) The matter absorbs or reflects the light

2) Lens

3) <u><em>Concave</em></u>- curves inwards.  Diverges light

b.<u><em>Convex</em></u>- curves outward.  Converges light

4) The image is real if the distance of the object from the lens is greater than the focal length and virtual if it is less than the focal length

5) Lens and, for convex lenses, on the distance between the lens and the object.

6) Index of refraction?

Which statement describes the reason for the change in the velocity of waves as temperature decreases?
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

O The particles of the medium move more slowly and there are fewer chances to transfer energy.

Explanation:

Various media are made up of particles. These particles are in constant motion according to the kinetic theory of matter. Recall that temperature has been defined as the average kinetic energy of the particles in a medium. Hence, for any given medium, the velocity of particle motion increases or decreases linearly with temperature.

The speed of particles in any medium increases or decreases as the temperature of the medium increases or decreases as emphasised above. Hence, at low temperature, the velocity of waves set up by the motion of particles in a medium decreases and transfer the wave energy to neighbouring particles occurs more slowly than at high temperatures.
