Answer:

The average speed for the whole journey is 49.5 miles per hour.

Explanation:

Step 1 :

Here, both the ways, he covers the same distance.  Then, the formula to find average speed is

=  2xy / (x+y)

Step 2 :

x ----> Rate at which he travels from New York to Washington  

x  =  45

y ----> Rate at which he travels from New York to Washington  

y  =  55

Step 3 :

So, the average speed is

=  (2 ⋅ 45 ⋅ 55) / (45 + 55)

=  4950 / 100

=  49.5

attashe74 [19]

Answer:

It was generally believed that mountains were produced by vertical forces

Explanation:

                   The main view of the world worked geologically prior to the 1960s was that the mountains were formed by the vertical forces of nature.

                    The early people prior to 1960s believed in many different natural phenomenons and they give their own reasons for their occurrence. But later many researchers and geophysicists studied the formation of the earth and came with possible answers to these questions.

Thus the answer is  

" It was generally believed that mountains were produced by vertical forces."

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

293k

Explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the temperature to which the reaction must be heated to double the equilibrium constant.

To find this value, we will need to use the Van’t Hoff equation.

How light is channelled down an optical fibre
coldgirl [10]

Explanation:

Suppose you want to shine a flashlight beam down a long, straight hallway. Just point the beam straight down the hallway -- light travels in straight lines, so it is no problem. What if the hallway has a bend in it? You could place a mirror at the bend to reflect the light beam around the corner. What if the hallway is very winding with multiple bends? You might line the walls with mirrors and angle the beam so that it bounces from side-to-side all along the hallway. This is exactly what happens in an optical fiber.

The light in a fiber-optic cable travels through the core (hallway) by constantly bouncing from the cladding (mirror-lined walls), a principle called total internal reflection. Because the cladding does not absorb any light from the core, the light wave can travel great distances.

However, some of the light signal degrades within the fiber, mostly due to impurities in the glass. The extent that the signal degrades depends on the purity of the glass and the wavelength of the transmitted light (for example, 850 nm = 60 to 75 percent/km; 1,300 nm = 50 to 60 percent/km; 1,550 nm is greater than 50 percent/km). Some premium optical fibers show much less signal degradation -- less than 10 percent/km at 1,550 nm.
