Two families meet at the park at 10:00am. Each family uses a different way of transportation to get there. The Gonzalez family l

eaves at 9:00am and drives 90 km on a highway. The Rivera leave at 9:30am and ride the train 30km. What is the average speed for each family’s trip? Which family travels at the faster speed?

Firstly, we need to make the times and distance equal to compare.

1hr=60mins
Gonz drove 90km in 60mins,so they would drive 45km in 30 mins dividing it by 2.
Because the Rivs had gone 30km in 30mins, Gonz were faster.

For the adverage speed, we should first add the speed of each family in mph , so 90+60, which equals 150 and divide that by 2 because there are 2 speeds so the average speed is 75mph.

P.S English is my second language so tell me if you don't understand something and I will try and explain.

What effect does the removal of vegetation have on soil ?
Strike441 [17]
Hello!

The removal of vegetation causes the desertification and erosion of soil. The roots of the plants that are inside the soil create a sort of net that prevents the material to be dragged by the water from the rain. They also absorb any excess water that can weaken the soil structure. If vegetation is removed from the soil, the nutrients can be dragged by water currents and slowly the desertification will occur. 

Have a nice day!

Which of the following are found within the electromagnetic spectrum? Check all that apply. sound waves visible light X rays ult
sattari [20]

Answer:

Visible light

X rays

ultraviolet radiation

gamma rays

microwave radiation

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves consist of oscillating electric and magnetic fields which vibrate in a direction perpendicular to the direction of motion of the wave (transverse wave). Electromagnetic waves have all same speed in a vacuum (c=3.0\cdot 10^8 m/s, known as speed of light) and are classified into 7 different types according to their frequency and wavelength. This classification is called electromagnetic spectrum.

From lowest to highest wavelength, the 7 types are:

Gamma rays

X-rays

Ultraviolet radiation

Visible light

Infrared radiation

Microwaves

Radio waves

Sound waves, on the contrary, do not belong to the electromagnetic spectrum, since they are another type of wave called mechanical waves (which consist of vibrations of the particles in a medium).

Cosmic background radiation is electromagnetic radiation from the sky with no discernible source. The origin of this radiation depends on the region of the spectrum that is observed.
