Read the scenario. A car starts 10 m north of a reference point. It moves at a constant velocity over the next 5 s, reaching a p

osition of 10 m south of the reference point. What is the car’s average velocity? 2 m/s south 4 m/s north 0 m/s 4 m/s south

Answer:

4 m/s south

Explanation:

This is a pretty easy one.

Assume that the car has a reference point ragged x

We also know that the car starts moving at a point 10 m North of X. It moves steadily at a uniform velocity and ended at a position 10 m south of X.

If x is the reference point, we can infer that the car moves a total distance of, 10 m + 10 m.

Thus, the total distance moved by the car is 20 m.

It is also stated that it achieves that distance in 5 seconds.

Velocity is defined as the ratio of distance with respect to the tome taken, i.e V = d/t

Then, the velocity is

V = 20 / 5 = 4 m/s

Considering the fact that the car left and moved towards the south. We can say that it moved 4 m/s South.

When reaching a boundary between two media (1 and 2), an incident ray is partially reflected and partially refracted. The ray is
lukranit [14]

Answer:

The angle of incidence when the reflected ray is perpendicular to the incident ray = 45°

Explanation:

According to Snell's Law,

n₁ sin θ₁ = n₂ sin θ₂

When the angle between the incident ray and reflected ray is 90°, the angle of incidence is θ₁ and the angle of reflection, θ₂ = 90° - θ₁ and the index of refraction in the Snell's Law for both media would be the same, n₁ = n₂ = n

n sin θ₁ = n sin (90° - θ₁)

Note that from trigonometric relations,

Sin (90° - θ₁) = cos θ₁

n sin θ₁ = n cos θ₁

(sin θ₁)/(cos θ₁) = 1

tan θ₁ = 1

θ₁ = arctan 1 = 45°

Hope this Helps!!!

How do you move the decimal from megameters to meters?
Deffense [45]
The prefix "mega" means million.
Therefore
1 megameter = 10⁶ meters

That is,
1.0 megameter = 1,000,000.0 meters.

Answer:
The decimal is moved right by 6 places to convert a megameter to meters.
