The velocity is 60 because you divide your distance by your time (240÷4=60)
Mila [183]3 years ago
4 0
You convert 240 km to meters: that would be 240 divided by 1,000 to reach your answer of .24 meters. Now, you would want distance over time, so .24 divided by 4 would be .06. Your velocity is .06

the red arrow shows the direction that wind from the south pole would travel if earth were not spinning. the wind's destination
MissTica

Answer: It should be A or the very left red circle that you can click on

Explanation: Because when the wind is moving downward and the earth is spinning the spot the wind ends up will never be directly down from where it was to begin with

Can a falling object reach terminal velocity in outer space?
Triss [41]

Answer:

There is no gravity in outer space so how will any object fall in the first place

Also the principle of terminal velocity is limited to free fall where the acceleration is equal to the gravity of the planet

A glass plate 2.25 mm thick, with an index of refraction of 1.80, is placed between a point source of light with wavelength 620
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

There are 2.71x10⁴ wavelengths between the source and the screen.

Explanation:

The number of wavelengths (N) can be calculated as follows:

N = \frac{d_{g}}{\lambda_{g}} + \frac{d_{a}}{\lambda_{a}}    

Where:

d_{g}: is the distance in glass = 2.25 mm

d_{a}: is the distance in air = 1.50 cm - 0.225 cm = 1.275 cm

\lambda_{g}: is the wavelength in glass

\lambda_{a}: is the wavelength in air = 620 nm

To find the wavelength in glass we need to use the following equation:

n_{g}*\lambda_{g} = n_{a}*\lambda_{a}

Where:

n_{g}: is the refraction index of glass = 1.80

n_{a}: is the refraction index of air = 1

\lambda_{g} = \frac{\lambda_{a}}{n_{g}} = \frac{620 nm}{1.80} = 344.4 nm

Hence, the number of wavelengths is:

N = \frac{d_{g}}{\lambda_{g}} + \frac{d_{a}}{\lambda_{a}}

N = \frac{2.25 \cdot 10^{-3} m}{344.4 \cdot 10^{-9} m} + \frac{1.275 \cdot 10^{-2} m}{620 \cdot 10^{-9} m}                                    

N = 2.71 \cdot 10^{4}

Therefore, there are 2.71x10⁴ wavelengths between the source and the screen.

I hope it helps you!
