Answer:

B)The motion of water in an ocean current

Explanation:

With respect to measurements, a vector has both a magnitude and a direction. The first three examples (maximum height of a hill, air temperature, and rain accumulation) are magnitudes only. The fourth example (motion of water in an ocean current) is a vector, because it has a magnitude (speed) and a direction (with the current).

How many times will a skydiver reach terminal velocity before landing on the ground?.......... A. 0 B. 1 C. 3 D. 2
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

D. 2

Explanation:

The skydiver will reach terminal velocity when gravity = air resistance. When this occurs, he/she will no longer accelerate and his/her speed will be constant.

Once the skydiver opens the parachute, his/her speed will decrease suddenly, and again the air resistance increases due to the parachute's large area. Eventually, gravity will equal air resistance again and terminal velocity will be reached for the second time.

Even though the speeds are different, the first terminal velocity is much higher than the second one, this question refers to how many times terminal velocity is reached, not how many times the skydiver accelerates.

Veronika [31]

Answer:a)   λ = 4.862 10⁻⁷ m,  b)  λ = 4.341 10⁻⁷ m

Explanation:

The spectrum of hydrogen can be described by the expression

         

in the case of the initial state n = 2 this series is the Balmer series

a) Find the wavelength for n = 4

       

let's calculate

          = 1,097 10⁷ ()

         \frac{1}{ \lambda} = 1.097 10⁷ 0.1875 = 0.2056 10⁷

          λ = 4.862 10⁻⁷ m

b) n = 5

           

    \frac{1}{ \lambda} = 1,097 10⁷ ()

    \frac{1}{ \lambda} = 1.097 10⁷ 0.21 = 0.23037 10⁷

     λ = 4.341 10⁻⁷ m
