Answer:

A) It will move at a different speed (i.e slower)

B) A vacuum

Explanation:

For A), Light moves at a different speed as it starts to interact more with the particles in said medium (in this case, water) than the earlier medium.

For B), Light propagates using its own particle, i.e the photon whereas sound is more of a transmission of energy from the particles it originates from. In a vacuum, there are no particles to transfer energy to, that is why light can travel in a vacuum and sound cannot

A runner achieves a velocity of 11.1 m/s, 9 sec after he begins. What is his
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

1.23 m/s²

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 0 m/s

v = 11.1 m/s

t = 9 s

Find: a

Equation:

v = at + v₀

Plug in:

11.1 m/s = a (9 s) + 0 m/s

a = 1.23 m/s²

The runner's acceleration is 1.23 m/s².

Answer:

D

Explanation:

1.) The reaction is at dynamic equilibrium.

A: Nitrogen and hydrogen combine at the same rate that ammonia breaks down.

2.) Which statement about the reaction is necessarily correct?

A: Both calcium carbonate and sodium carbonate are being produced.

3.) Both calcium carbonate and sodium carbonate are being produced.

A: The reaction is reversible.

4.) What is the fastest motion that can be measured in any frame of reference?

A: 300,000 km/s

5.) Two people are on a train that is moving at 10 m/s north. They are walking 1 m/s south relative to the train. Relative to the ground, their motion is 9 m/s north.

Why are we able to use these motions to describe the motion relative to the ground?

A: The people are moving much slower than the speed of light so the ground acts as a frame of reference.
