I believe the answer is c but I’m not 100% sure
Over time, the types of technology can vary and be improved upon so that more advanced techniques become more valued. This could be the situation with mining whereby back in the 1500's in underground mines the rock was broken by fire setting ie lighting a fire below the rock face to heat up the rock and then throwing cold water on it to crack it, so that it could be dug by hand. With the advent of explosives, this all changed so that the rock could be blasted. The increase in advance rates for an underground heading have thus gone from 5-20 feet per month to up to 300meters (984 ft) per month for a 24/7 mining operation, which is a huge improvement.
Answer:
The average speed can be calculated as the quotient between the distance travelled and the time needed to travel that distance.
To go to the school, he travels 2.4 km in 0.6 hours, then here the average speed is:
s = (2.4km)/(0.6 hours) = 4 km/h
To return to his home, he travels 2.4km again, this time in only 0.4 hours, then here the average speed is:
s' = (2.4 km)/(0.4 hours) = 6 km/h.
Now, if we want the total average speed (of going and returning) we have that the total distance traveled is two times the distance between his home and school, and the total time is 0.6 hours plus 0.4 hours, then the average speed is:
S = (2*2.4 km)/(0.6 hours + 0.4 hours)
S = (4.8km)/(1 h) = 4.8 km/h
Answer:
857.5 m
2.8583×10⁻⁶ seconds
Explanation:
Time taken by the sound of the thunder to reach the student = 2.5 s
Speed of sound in air is 343 m/s
Speed of light is 3×10⁸ m/s
Distance travelled by the sound = Time taken by the sound × Speed of sound in air
⇒Distance travelled by the sound = 2.5×343 = 857.5 m
⇒Distance travelled by the sound = 857.5 m
Time taken by light = Distance the light travelled / Speed of light
Time taken by light = 2.8583×10⁻⁶ seconds
Yes it is. Uh huh, uh huh, shore enuff. Mmm hmm. Yeah yeah yeah. Yah Mon ! Indubitably.
