Answer:

The horse is going at 12.72 m/s speed.

Explanation:

The initial speed of the horse (u) = 3 m/s

The acceleration of the horse (a)= 5 m/s^{2}

The displacement( it is assumed it is moving in a straight line)(s)= 15.3 m

Applying the second equation of motion to find out the time,

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^{2}

15.3=3t+2.5t^{2}

2.5t^{2}+3t-15.3=0

Solving this quadratic equation, we get time(t)=1.945 s, the other negative time is neglected.

Now applying first equation of motion, to find out the final velocity,

v=u+at

v=3+1.945*5

v=3+9.72

v=12.72 m/s

The horse travels at a speed of 12.72 m/s after covering the given distance.

What is static electricity
navik [9.2K]

Static electricity is electricity produced locally that does not flow. It is produced by electrons being rubbed off one object and collecting on another. It cannot flow through a wire like the electricity in your home.  

Example:  

1) Rub a balloon on your hair and it will stick to the wall. The balloon rubs electrons off your hair and picks up a negative charge. Your hair, in turn, is left with a positive charge. You may even notice your hair has "static" and is standing out from your head.  

2) Comb your hair with a plastic comb then use it to pick up small pieces of paper. The comb picks up electrons from your hair and becomes negatively charged. It uses this charge to attract the pieces of paper.  

3) Rub your slippered feet on the carpet and then touch something metal like a door knob. The "shock" you feel is static electricity. You pick up electrons from the carpet and discharge them on to the door knob.

Sort the processes based on the type of energy transfer they involve. condensation freezing deposition sublimation evaporation m
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

condensation - thermal energy removed

freezing -thermal energy removed

deposition - thermal energy removed

sublimation - thermal energy added

evaporation - thermal energy added

melting - thermal energy added

Explanation:

Thermal energy is heat energy. Processes in which heat is added involve the addition of thermal energy while processes in which heat energy is removed involves removal of thermal energy.

Condensation involves a change from gas to liquid, freezing involves a change from liquid to solid while deposition involves the settling of mobile particles at a place. All these processes involve a decrease in energy of particles.

On the other hand, sublimation is a direct change from solid to gas, melting involves a change from solid to liquid while evaporation involves a change from liquid to gas. All these processes occur when energy is added to the particles in a system.

Which picture best demonstrates the phenomenon of diffraction?
timama [110]

Answer:

The image to the left (with the disks on it)

Explanation:

Interference in any type of wave can be gotten in two forms, constructive interference, and destructive interference.

The constructive interference is between two waves with the same phase, that is, each crest and trough correspond with the crest and trough of the another getting as result a wave with twice the amplitude of the original one.

The destructive interference is between two waves out of phase, in which the crest of one cancels with the trough of another.

If light passes for a slit it will get a diffraction pattern in a screen, at which each bright pattern corresponds to a crest and a dark pattern to a trough, as a consequence of constructive interference and destructive interference in different points of its propagation to the screen.

The circular shape of the disks can be a representation of the wavefront and how the overlaps make constructive and destructive interference in order to get the diffraction pattern.
