The number we need in order to answer the question belongs in the space between the words "is" and "of".  You left that blank blank, so there really isn't any question here to answer.

HOWEVER ... the refractive index of a medium can never be less than 1.0 , so we know for sure that <em>choice-a can't be</em> the correct answer.

Calculate the magnitude of the total impulse applied to the car to bring it to rest
n200080 [17]

Answer:

Total impulse = mv = Initial momentum of the car

Explanation:

Let the mass of the car be 'm' kg moving with a velocity 'v' m/s.

The final velocity of the car is 0 m/s as it is brought to rest.

Impulse is equal to the product of constant force applied to an object for a very small interval. Impulse is also calculated as the total change in the linear momentum of an object during the given time interval.

The magnitude of impulse is the absolute value of the change in momentum.

|J|=|p_f-p_i|

Momentum of an object is equal to the product of its mass and velocity.

So, the initial momentum of the car is given as:

p_i=mv

The final momentum of the car is given as:

p_f=m(0)=0

Therefore, the impulse is given as:

|J|=|p_f-p_i|=|0-mv|=|-mv|=mv

Hence, the magnitude of the impulse applied to the car to bring it to rest is equal to the initial momentum of the car.

A certain type of bird lives in two regions of a state. The distribution of weight for birds of this type in the northern region
Annette [7]

Answer: (a) Z-score are 1 and -1.2 for northern and southern regions, respectively.

Explanation: <u>Z-score</u> is how many standard deviations a data is from the population mean or how far a data point is from the mean.

The z-score is calculated by the following:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

where

x is the data point

μ is population mean

σ is standard deviation

For the <u>northern</u> <u>region</u> birds:

μ = 10, σ = 3, x = 13

z=\frac{13-10}{3}

z = 1

The z-score for birds living in the northern region is 1, which means it is 1 standard deviation <em>above the mean</em>.

For the southern region:

μ = 16, σ = 2.5, x = 13

z=\frac{13-16}{2.5}

z = -1.2

The z-score for southern living birds is -1.2, meaning it is 1.2 standard deviations <em>below the mean</em>.

Honeybees accumulate charge as they fly, and they transfer charge to the flowers they visit. Honeybees are able to sense electri
Vilka [71]

Answer:

ΔE> E_minimo

We see that the field difference between these two flowers is greater than the minimum field, so the bee knows if it has been recently visited, so the answer is if it can detect the difference

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use the electric field expression

         E = k q / r²

where k is the Coulomb constant that is equal to 9 109 N m² /C², q the charge and r the distance to the point of interest positive test charge, in this case the distance to the bee

let's calculate the field for each charge

 

Q = 24 pC = 24 10⁻¹² C

         E₁ = 9 10⁹ 24 10⁻¹² / 0.20²

         E₁ = 5.4 N / C

Q = 32 pC = 32 10⁻¹² C

         E₂ = 9 10⁹ 32 10⁻¹² / 0.2²

         E₂ = 7.2 N / C

let's find the difference between these two fields

         ΔE = E₂ -E₁

         ΔE = 7.2 - 5.4

         ΔE = 1.8 N / C

the minimum detection field is

         E_minimum = 0.77 N / C

        ΔE> E_minimo

We see that the field difference between these two flowers is greater than the minimum field, so the bee knows if it has been recently visited, so the answer is if it can detect the difference

What is the acceleration of a Porsche that can go from 15 mi/hr to 75 mi/hr in 4 seconds?
Elodia [21]

Hi there!

Acceleration = change in velocity / change in time = Δv/Δt

Thus:

a = (75 - 15)/4 = 60/4 = 15 mi/hr²
