Answer:

A. \vec{r}=(6\frac{m}{s})t\ \ \hat{i}

B.  t = 50 s

Explanation:

A. The vectorial equation of the person who is getting closer to the other person is:

\vec{r}=\vec{v}t

r: position vector

v: speed vector = 6m/s i  (if you consider the motion as a horizontal motion)

Then, you replace and obtain:

\vec{r}=(6\frac{m}{s})t\ \ \hat{i}

B. The time is:

t=\frac{d}{v}

d: distance to the observer = 300m

v: speed of the person on the car = 6.00 m/s

t=\frac{300m}{6m/s}=50s

hoa [83]

Answer:

Squids = 450 - 490 nm (Moderate Frequency) (Blue)

Bees = 300 - 650 nm (Lower Frequency Bands)

Frogs = 280 - 580 nm (Very Low Frequency)

Explanation:

All of the above mentioned ranges are compared to that of humans.

I'm just surprised a little bit in the imagination that how these organisms see the world through their unique eyes. On the other hands, they are evolved like this just like we do so that may not be surprising enough. SIKE

irga5000 [103]

Answer:

The battery can supply 130 W for 11.75 h

Explanation:

In order to discover the time in wich the battery can supply this energy we need to find how much current is being drawn from it, we do that by using the equation for real power that is P = V*I, since we have V and P we can solve for I as seen bellow:

I = P/V = 130/12 = 10.834 A

We can use this value to find how many hours the power can supply said current. We do that by dividing the current capacity of the battery by the current drawn:

t = 141/12 = 11.75 h
