Average acceleration  =  (change in speed)  /  (time for the change)

                                       =           (70 km/hour)  /  (7 seconds)

                                       =               10  km/hr-sec .

That's a valid unit of acceleration ...  [ length / time² ] ...
but it's so clunky that we can't relate to it.  We usually
want to see acceleration in  m/s² .  So I'll convert this
answer to the more conventional unit.

                 (10 km/hr-sec) · (1,000 m / 1 km) · (1 hr / 3,600 sec)

             =  (10 · 1,000 · 1) / (1 · 3,600)  m/s²

             =          2.78  m/s²        ( about  0.28 G )

Given: Saturated air changes temperature by 0.5°C/100 m. The air is completely saturated at the dew point. The dew point has bee
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

saturated air temperature by 0.5^{\circ}C/100 m

Dew point temperature is given by t=2^{\circ}C

Dew point is defined as the temperature after which air no longer to uphold the water vapor fuse with it and some water vapor may condense to a liquid.

air continues to rise for 1400 m

i.e. change in temperature would be \Delta t =\frac{0.5}{100}\times 1400=7^{\circ}C

Final temperature t_f

t_f+\Delta t=t

t_f=2-7=-5^{\circ}C

A helicopter is ascending vertically. a passenger accidentally drops her wallet out the sides of the helicopter when it is 160 m
Advocard [28]

Answer:

(E)56.0 m/s

Explanation:

Height =h=-160 m

Because the wallet moving in downward direction

Time=t=7 s

Final speed of wallet=v=0

We have to find the speed of helicopter ascending  at the moment when the passenger let go of the wallet.

v^2-u^2=2gh

Where g=9.8 m/s^2

Substitute the values

0-u^2=2(-160)\times 9.8

u^2=3136

u=\sqrt{3136}=56m/s

Option (E) is true

When a light ray passes from LESS dense water (n = 1.33) into a MORE dense diamond (n = 2.419) at an angle of 45 degrees, its pa
Ivenika [448]

<u>Explanation:</u>

When light is incident at a transparent surface, the transmitted component of the light changes direction at the interface. Another component of the light is reflected at the surface. When a ray of light passes from water to diamond at an angle 45°, its path is bent towards the normal. This is so because water is less dense than the diamond. The refractive index of water (n = 1.33) is less than the refractive index of diamond (n = 2.419).

The speed of sound in ice, water, and steam is shown. What best explains the speed of sound in different states of matter?
Marina86 [1]

The speed of sound is greater in ice (4000 m/s), then in water (1500 m/s), then in air (340 m/s). The explanation for this is the differente state of the matter in the three cases.

In fact, sound waves travel faster in solids (like ice), then in liquids (like water), then in gases (like air). This is because the speed of the sound wave depends on the density of the medium: the greater the density, the faster the sound wave. This can be easily understood by thinking at how a sound wave propagates: a sound wave is a vibration of molecules, which is transmitted throughout the medium by collision of the molecules. Therefore, the smaller the spacing between the molecules (such as in solids), the more efficient is the propagation, and so the sound wave is faster. On the contrary, there is a large spacing between molecules in gases (such as in the air), so there are less collisions between the molecules and so the wave is not transmitted efficiently, and so it has less velocity.
