d. the surface on which the object is moving is made smoother

This is called lubrication, I think ...

b. the weight of the moving object is decreased

If there is less araea of contact because of the weight reduction ("squeezing together") then this could also have an effexct. I thinl though the thrust of the q is on lubrication = oil, talcum powder, thin films of water etc

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer: The theory might have become Obsolete or Superseded

Explanation:

A theory becomes obsolete or superseded if it becomes inadequate, false or incomplete in how its describes reality. It does not matter if it was once accepted. There are some theories such as Lysenkoism that are currently described as being obsolete because it does not conform to current reality. Another example of a theory that was superseded is the phlogiston theory. It was replaced a different theory of energy.

When running a half marathon (13.1 miles), it took Kevin 8 minutes to run from mile marker 1 to mile marker 2, and 18 minutes to
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

It took Kevin 26 minutes to run from markers 1 to 4

His average speed from mile markers 1 to 4 is 0.154 miles/minute

Kevin must run by average speed 0.1 miles/minute to finish the race

Explanation:

Lets explain how to solve the problem

A half marathon 13.1 miles

Kevin took 8 minutes to run from mile marker 1 to mile marker 2 and

18 minutes to run from mile marker 2 to mile marker 4

→ He took 8 minutes and 18 minutes to run from marker 1 to marker 4

→ The total time of the first 4 marker = 8 + 18 = 26 minutes

<em>It took Kevin 26 minutes to run from markers 1 to 4</em>

<em></em>

Average speed is total distance divided by total time

The average speed of Kevin as he ran from mile marker 1 to mile

marker 4 is the 4 miles divides by 26 minutes

→ Average speed = 4 ÷ 26 = \frac{2}{13} = 0.154 miles/minute

<em>His average speed from mile markers 1 to 4 is 0.154 miles/minute</em>

<em></em>

It took Kevin 71 minutes to pass mile marker 9

Kevin need to complete the race in 112 minutes, then what must

Kevin's average speed be as he travels from mile marker 9 to the

finish line?

The total distance of the race is 13.1 miles, he ran 9 miles

→ The remaining distance = 13.1 - 9 = 4.1 miles

He must run 4.1 miles to complete the race

The total time is 112 minutes, he used 71 minutes to run the first 9 miles

→ The remaining time = 112 - 71 = 41 minutes

He must finish the 4.1 miles in 41 minutes

→ His average speed for the last part of the race = 4.1 ÷ 41 = 0.1 mi/min

<em>Kevin must run by average speed 0.1 miles/minute to finish the race</em>

jasenka [17]

Answer:

70 m.

Explanation:

Given,

Frequency, f = 20 HZ

speed of sound, v = 1400 m/s

wavelength of the waves = ?

we know,

v = f λ

\lambda= \dfrac{v}{f}

\lambda= \dfrac{1400}{20}

\lambda=70\ m

Hence, the wavelength of the wave is equal to 70 m.
