The whole point of this problem is to check how well you understand
the definitions of a few important quantities, like velocity, speed, distance,
displacement etc.
Before we begin, I just want to mention that 'MPG' is not a unit of either
velocity or speed, but I think I know what you mean.
-- For some reason, Ms. Eaddy rode 100 miles north on the train, then
stayed aboard while the train turned around and took her 150 miles south.
The total distance she rode was (100 + 150) = 250 miles. But she ended up
50 miles south of where she began.
-- Displacement for the whole trip = distance and direction from the start point
to the finish point.
Displacement = 50 miles south
-- Average velocity = (displacement) / (time)
50 miles south / 3.5 hours = <u>14.29 miles per hour south</u>
Answer:
13 N
Explanation:
The Net Force of an object should be the difference between the forces applied to the object if the object is not in equilibrium. This object is not in equilibrium so therefore by finding the difference between the forces, you will find your answer. 20 N - 7 N = 13 N.
Answer:
D) diffraction
Explanation:
Corona is an optical phenomenon produced by the diffraction of sunlight or moonlight, as light moves through water droplets in the atmosphere.
This phenomenon produces one or more diffuse concentric rings of light around the Sun or Moon, usually seen as colored circles.
Therefore, the explanation for these phenomena of colored concentric circles, sometimes seen with the Sun or the Moon involves diffraction.
Answer:
The cooling time will not be reduced.
Explanation:
The time to cook is virtually the same in both types, vigorously and gently boiling water.
The reason cooking of spaghetti calls for vigorously boiling water is to keep the pasta agitated so that they do not stick to one another.
The temperature of boiling water is the same for both vigorously boiling water and gently boiling water, therefore there will be little time difference in when the potatoes will cook when it is done with vigorously boiling water than when it is cooked with gently boiling water.
However cooking potatoes in vigorously boiling water may cause the water to dry up on time and the potatoes get burnt.
Answer: If the forces on an object are balanced, the net force is zero. If the forces are unbalanced forces, the effects don't cancel each other. Any time the forces acting on an object are unbalanced, the net force is not zero, and the motion of the object changes.
