Answer:

15 mph west

Explanation:

Velocity of car 1 with respect to ground, V1,o = 45 mph west

Velocity of car 2 with respect to car 1, V2,1 = 30 mph east

Take east direction as positive direction and west direction as negative direction.

By use of formula of relative velocity,

Velocity of car 2 with respect to car 1 is given by

V2, 1 = V2,o - V1,o

30 = V2,o - (-45)

V2,o = 30 - 45 = - 15 mph

It means the velocity of car 2 with respect to ground is 15 mph towards west.

Distance between the two cars is increasing at the rate of 85 mph. 

A passenger in Car-1 says that he is at rest in his own frame of reference,
and Car-2 is moving away from him at 85 mph, toward the west.

What statements correctly describe theories
elixir [45]

Theories result from several repeated experiments.

Theories explain observations and hypotheses.

Theories may be revised over time.

Explanation:

Scientific theories are purely explanations into an observation and hypothesis. The are general binding explanations that have been developed from several tests.

  • Theories are products of different stages of experiments in their own regard.
  • For a theory to be accepted by the scientific community, its hypothesis statement must be:
  1. Testable
  2. Repeated
  3. Falsifiable
  • Based on new evidence, a theory may be revised with time. One of such is the Dalton's atomic theory with a modern atomic theory version now.

An object 1,000 km above earths surface would accelerate
Verizon [17]

The acceleration which is gained by an object because of the gravitational force is called its acceleration due to gravity. Its SI unit is m/s2. Acceleration due to gravity is a vector, which means it has both a magnitude and a direction. The formula is ‘the change in velocity= gravity x time’ The acceleration due to gravity at the surface of Earth is represented as g. It has a standard value defined as 9.80665 m/s2.[1]

20% Part (a) Use an "E Field Sensor" and move it along either equipotential. What can you say about the E field along an equipot
Alex

Answer:

b. Constant magnitude, but varying direction, perpendicular to the equipotential.

Explanation:

As we know that the relation between electric field and electric potential is given as

\Delta E = -\frac{dV}{dr}

here if we say that potential is constant because electric field sensor is moving along equi-potential line.

Then we will say

V = constant

so we have

\Delta E = 0

so electric field will remain constant always in magnitude and always remains perpendicular to the surface

so we have

b. Constant magnitude, but varying direction, perpendicular to the equipotential.
