Explain why it seems that you can "see into" a mirror? Ty♡

The reason you can see yourself in a mirror is because of light. The lights reflects off of colors which is part of your visual. However, the main reason is because the light reflects off of the mirror which is called specular reflection. :)

Ann walked 1.5 miles south to her house in 0.5 hours. what is Ann's speed? what is Ann's velocity

ipn [44]

To calculate the speed and velocity of the Ann`s we use the formula,

$v= \frac{d}{t}$

Here, d is distance and t is time and v if we take it with direction then it is called velocity and if we take it without the direction then it is called speed.

Given $d=1.5 miles$ and $t=0.5 hours$ .

Substituting these values in above equation we get

$v=\frac{1.5mi }{0.5 h} = 3 mi/h$

As Ann walked towards south direction therefore, Ann`s velocity is 3 mi/h south and her speed is 3 mi/h .

PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS PROBLEM

1) The mass of the continent is $2.13\cdot 10^{21} kg$

2) The kinetic energy of the continent is 274.8 J

3) The speed of the jogger must be 2.76 m/s

Explanation:

The continent is a slab of side 5900 km (so the surface is 5900 x 5900, assuming it is a square) and depth 26 km, therefore its volume is:

$V=(36)(4600)^2=7.62\cdot 10^8 km^3 = 7.62\cdot 10^{17} m^3$

The mass of the continent is given by

$m=\rho V$

where:

$\rho = 2790 kg/m^3$ is its density

$V=7.62\cdot 10^{17} m^3$ is its volume

Substituting, we find the mass:

$m=(2790)(7.62\cdot 10^{17})=2.13\cdot 10^{21} kg$

To find the kinetic energy, we need to convert the speed of the continent into m/s first.

The speed is

v = 1.6 cm/year

And we have:

1.6 cm = 0.016 m

$1 year = (365)(24)(60)(60)=3.15\cdot 10^7 s$

So, the speed is

$v=\frac{0.016 m}{3.15 \cdot 10^7 s}=5.08\cdot 10^{-10}m/s$

Now we can find the kinetic energy of the continent, which is given by

$K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where

$m=2.13\cdot 10^{21} kg$ is the mass

$v=5.08\cdot 10^{-10}m/s$ is the speed

Substituting,

$K=\frac{1}{2}(2.13\cdot 10^{21})(5.08\cdot 10^{-10})^2=274.8 J$

The jogger in this part has the same kinetic energy of the continent, so

K = 274.8 J

And its mass is

m = 72 kg

We can write his kinetic energy as

$K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where

v is the speed of the man

And solving the equation for v, we find his speed:

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2K}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(274.8)}{72}}=2.76 m/s$

The body went 450 meters within 30 seconds of starting the movement. In what time did the first 50 meters go?

Andrew [12]

3.33 seconds.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We can find the speed of the body using the formula,

Speed = Distance traveled in meters / time taken in seconds

= 450 m / 30 seconds

= 15 m/s

So per second the distance traveled by the body is 15 m.

So time needed to travel 50 m can be found as,

time = distance/speed

= 50 m / 15 m /s

= 3.33 s

If a woman weighs 125 lb, her mass expressed in kilograms is x kg, where x is

adelina 88 [10]

The first thing you should know to solve this problem is the conversion of pounds to kilograms:
1lb = 0.45 Kg
We can solve this problem by a simple rule of three
1lb ---> 0.45Kg
125lb ---> x
Clearing x we have:
x = ((125) / (1)) * (0.45) = 56.25 Kg.
Answer
her mass expressed in kilograms is 56.25 Kg.

You have two identical beakers A and B. Each beaker is filled with water to the same height. Beaker B has a rock floating at the

gregori [183]

Answer:

a) if we assume that the water does not spill, Beaker B weighs more than beaker S, or which in this case Beaker A weighs more

b) If it is spilled in water the weight of the two beakers is the same

Explanation:

The beaker weight is

beaker A

W_total = W_ empty + W_water

Beaker B

W_total = W_ empty + W_water + W_roca

a) if we assume that the water does not spill, Beaker B weighs more than beaker S, or which in this case Beaker A weighs more

b) If it is spilled in water, the weight of the two beakers is the same because the amount of liquid spilled and equal to the weight of the stone, therefore the two beakers weigh the same
