Answer:

Explanation:

True

Average speed is the ratio of total distance traveled to the total time taken and average velocity is total displacement to the total time.

And we know distance is either equal to or greater than displacement so we can say that for equal time interval magnitude of average velocity can never be greater than average speed.

The speed of sound at temperature of________in the air is 360m/s.​
Aleks04 [339]

Vo= 331+0.6T

360=331+0.6T

360-331=0.6T

29=0.6T

0.6T/29

T=6/290 so change it to simplest form and us formulas good luck

A radar for tracking aircraft broadcasts a 12 GHz microwave beam from a 2.0-m-diameter circular radar antenna. From a wave persp
NISA [10]

A) 750 m

First of all, let's find the wavelength of the microwave. We have

f=12GHz=12\cdot 10^9 Hz is the frequency

c=3.0\cdot 10^8 m/s is the speed of light

So the wavelength of the beam is

\lambda=\frac{c}{f}=\frac{3\cdot 10^8 m/s}{12\cdot 10^9 Hz}=0.025 m

Now we can use the formula of the single-slit diffraction to find the radius of aperture of the beam:

y=\frac{m\lambda D}{a}

where

m = 1 since we are interested only in the central fringe

D = 30 km = 30,000 m

a = 2.0 m is the aperture of the antenna (which corresponds to the width of the slit)

Substituting, we find

y=\frac{(1)(0.025 m)(30000 m)}{2.0 m}=375 m

and so, the diameter is

d=2y = 750 m

B) 0.23 W/m^2

First we calculate the area of the surface of the microwave at a distance of 30 km. Since the diameter of the circle is 750 m, the radius is

r=\frac{750 m}{2}=375 m

So the area is

A=\pi r^2 = \pi (375 m)^2=4.42\cdot 10^5 m^2

And since the power is

P=100 kW = 1\cdot 10^5 W

The average intensity is

I=\frac{P}{A}=\frac{1\cdot 10^5 W}{4.42\cdot 10^5 m^2}=0.23 W/m^2

An example of acceleration
TEA [102]

Answer:

Explanation:

Newton’s Second Law of Motion says that acceleration (gaining speed) happens when a force acts on a mass (object). Riding your bicycle is a good example of this law of motion at work. Your bicycle is the mass.

A series circuit has two 10-ohm bulb is added in a series. Technician A says that the three bulbs will be dimmer than when only
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

Technician  A  is right. The situation will happens even with only two bulbs in series

Explanation:

We must take into account that

1.- All electric device need its nominal voltage to operate

2.-Any and all electric device means an electric load for the source in terms of equation that means any device will implies a drop voltage of V = I*R ( I the flows current and R  the resistance of the device)

3.-Nominal voltage for bulbs are specify for houses voltages you find between fase and neutral wires for instance in Venezuela 120 (v).

4.-In a imaginary circuit of only one bulb, the nominal voltage will be applied and the bulb will operates correctly, but when you add another bulb (in series) the nominal voltage will split  between the two bulbs ( we  could find a situation such as the first bulb work properly but the second one does not). The voltage split according to Ohms law (in such way that the sum of voltage between the terminal of the first bulb plus the voltage at terminals of the second one are equal to nominal voltage.

For that reason all the bulbs are connected in parallel in wich case all of them will operate with the common voltage
