<h2>Option C is the correct answer.</h2>

Explanation:

We have equation of motion v = u + at

Initial velocity, u = 18 m/s to east

Final velocity, v = 19 m/s to east

Acceleration, a = ?

Time, t = 5 s

Substituting

             v = u + at

             19 = 18 + a x 5

              1 = 5a

               a = 0.2 m/s²

Since the velocity direction is towards east, direction of acceleration is also towards east.

So acceleration is 0.2 m/s² towards east.

Option C is the correct answer.

You need to design a photodetector that can respond to the entire range of visible light. True or False
Rasek [7]

Answer: True

Explanation:

A photo detector that can respond to the entire rang of visible light can be design, it is true.

Photo detector is a device in an optical receiver which receives optical signals and convert it to electric signal. It is the key device position in front of the optical receiver.

Answer:

Velocity and speed both are continuously increasing.

Acceleration is constant.

Explanation:

Speed is defined as length of path covered by a body per unit time. Speed is a scalar quantity that consist of magnitude only and not direction.

Velocity is defined as the displacement per unit times. Displacement is the shortest distance between the two points. It is a vector quantity and  hence has a direction in the direction of displacement along with its own magnitude.

  • Both velocity and speed have same unit of measure which is meter per second in S.I. During <em>free fall</em> in the absence of any air resistance the velocity and speed both will be having a vertical downward direction with continuously increasing magnitude. Tough we are not concerned about the direction when discussing about speed but here both are equal since the motion is linear.

Acceleration is the rate of change in velocity of a body which is a vector quantity. For speed we are concerned about instantaneous acceleration since for a short period of time it may have a specific direction.

  • During free fall the acceleration is of a body is equal to the acceleration due to gravity and constant when the height of fall is much lesser than the radius of the earth.

The robot HooRU is lost in space, floating around aimlessly, and radiates heat into the depths of the cosmos at the rate of 13.1
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

The temperature is  T  = 168.44 \ K

Explanation:

From the question ewe are told that

   The rate of heat transferred is    P  = 13.1 \ W

     The surface area is  A = 1.55 \ m^2

      The emissivity of its surface is  e = 0.287

Generally, the rate of heat transfer is mathematically represented as

           H  =  A e \sigma  T^{4}

=>         T  =  \sqrt[4]{\frac{P}{e* \sigma } }

where  \sigma is the Boltzmann constant with value  \sigma  = 5.67*10^{-8} \ W\cdot  m^{-2} \cdot  K^{-4}.

substituting value  

             T  =  \sqrt[4]{\frac{13.1}{ 0.287* 5.67 *10^{-8} } }

            T  = 168.44 \ K

e-lub [12.9K]
You should not go into the left side of the roadway when within 100 feet of the crossing. Moreover, you should also turn on your turn signal when within 100 of a turn. These precautions prevent accidents as it makes clear to other drivers what your intentions are and drivers making turns are not endangered.
