Answer: B) 2.5 m/s

Explanation: Find the average of the time and distance, and see how far they go in only 1 second.


1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 = 15
15 divided by 5 = 3

3 seconds

2 + 5 + 7 + 10 + 12 = 36
36 divided by 5 = 7.2


7.2m per 3 seconds.

7.2 divided by 3 = 2.4

Therefore, the answer is technically 2.4m/s

A block of mass m is placed on a smooth wedge of inclination θ . The whole system is accelerated horizontally so that the block
Helen [10]

Answer: mg/Cosθ

Explanation:

Taking horizontal acceleration of wedge as 'a'

FCosΘ = FsinΘ

F = mass(m) × acceleration(a) = ma

For horizontal resolution g = 0

Therefore,

Horizontal = Vertical

maCosΘ = mgSinΘ

aCosΘ = gSinΘ

a = gSinΘ/CosΘ

Recall from trigonometry :

SinΘ/Cosθ = tanΘ

Therefore,

a = gtanΘ

Normal force acing on the wedge:

mgCosΘ + maSinΘ - - - - (y)

Substitute a = gtanΘ into (y)

mgCosΘ + mgtanΘsinΘ

tanΘ = sinΘ/cosΘ

mgCosΘ + mgsinΘ/cosΘsinΘ

mgCosΘ + mgsin^2Θ/cosΘ

Factorizing

mg(Cosθ + sin^2Θ/cosΘ)

Taking the L. C. M

mg[(Cos^2θ + sin^2Θ) /Cosθ]

Recall: Cos^2θ + sin^2Θ = 1

mg[ 1 /Cosθ]

mg/Cosθ

PLEASE HELPPP :))<br> why do ocean ridges rise above the surrounding ocean floor?
o-na [289]
At the ridge, new crust forms by igneous intrusion and extrusion. Since hot rocks are in a more expanded state and then contract as they cool (as they spread away from the ridge), the midocean ridges stand up high above the surrounding seafloor. The seafloor depth increases with distance away from the midocean ridges.
