If a car travels 30 mi. north for 30 min., 60 mi. east for 1.0 hour, and 30 mi. south for 30 min., what is the average speed

Answer: 60mph

Explanation:

Given the following :

First leg travel:

Distance = 30 miles

Time of travel= 30 minutes = 0.5 hour

Second leg travel:

Distance = 60 miles

Time of travel = one hour

Average speed :

Speed = total Distance / time of travel

Total distance in miles = (30 + 60) miles = 90 miles

Total time of travel = 1 hour + 0.5 hour = 1.5 hours

Average speed = total distance traveled / total travel time

Average speed = 90 miles / 1.5 hours

Average speed = 60 miles / hour

= 60mph

A ball is shot straight up from the surface of the earth with an initial speed of 19.6 m/s. Neglect any effects due to air resis
Pavel [41]

Answer:

4 s

Explanation:

u = 19.6 m/s, g = 9.8 m /s^2

Let the time taken to reach the maximum height is t.

Use first equation of motion.

v = u + at

At maximum height, final velocity v is zero.

0 = 19.6 - 9.8 x t

t = 19.6 / 9.8 = 2 s

As the air resistance be negligible, is time taken to reach the ground is also 2 sec.

So, total time taken be the ball to reach at original point = 2 + 2 = 4 s

You are an evolutionary biologist studying a population of bats in the rain forest in Brazil. Most of the population possesses m
Oxana [17]

Answer:

Option (B)

Explanation:

In the stabilizing natural selection, the extreme traits from both the ends are eliminated by natural selection and natural selection favors the intermediate trait. So over time individuals having the intermediate traits are selected over the individuals having extreme traits.

So here the population of the bat which possesses moderate wing length is selected over the individual with extreme traits like individuals with short wings and long wings. As a result, the population of moderate length wing bats increased.

Therefore the correct answer is (B)- stabilizing natural selection.
