In a conversation with a friend, he expresses skepticism about global warning. When you inquire about his reasons, he responds b

y saying that the weather in that area has been the coolest he can remember. Using the information you have learned, what information could you offer to encourage your friend to reevaluate his position?

Answer:

Explanation:

A friend observes only the weather which is different than climate. Weather refers to short term change in the atmosphere while climate refers to what weather is like over a while in a specific area.

The weather may change when we move from one area to another. Cooler weather does not mean that the climate is cooler.

Global warming is the increase in average temperature globally due to which heat is increasing but it does not imply that temperature is hotter everywhere.

A wave has a wave length of 2 m and a frequency of 500 Hz, what is its speed?
Tomtit [17]
The wavelength, λ tells us how long one segment of the wave is.  The frequency, f tells us how often one whole segment goes by.  So the speed is the wavelength (in meters), times the frequency (in Hz)
v=λ f=1000m/s

After hitting a long fly ball that goes over the right fielder's head and lands in the outfield, the batter decides to keep goin
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

a) 633.39 J

b) 0.28

Explanation:

a)The kinetic energy of the player = \frac{1}{2} mv^{2}

Work done by friction = energy change of the player

                                    = \frac{1}{2} 67(4.35)^{2} = 633.9 J

b) Assuming the frictional force stays constant,

Work done by friction = Frictional force×distance

Frictional force = kinetic friction(μ)×normal reaction

Normal reaction = weight = mass×gravitational acceleration ( g=10m/s2 )

Combining these equations

633.9  =  F×3.4 ⇒ F = 186.44 N

F = μmg ⇒ μ = F/mg

                     = 186.44/670

                      = 0.28

a set of water travels at 10 m/s, and 5.0 waves pass you in 2.0s. what is the wavelength of the waves?
Alecsey [184]
Well, I think the answer would be 4 meters because the speed is in meters per second and the frequency is 5 waves every 2 seconds. 
Wavelength = Speed/Frequency
I think the frequency is 2.5 waves a second but that's not something I'm 100% sure about.
I hope this helps though.

A car traveling on a flat (unbanked), circular track accelerates uniformly from rest with a tangential acceleration of 1.85 m/s2
Tasya [4]

Answer:

Coefficient of friction = 0.836

Explanation:

If v be the speed after one quarter of the circular path

v² = 2as = 2 x 1.85 x 2πr/4 ; v²/r = 1.85 x 3.14 = 5.8

tangential acceleration = 5.8 m/s²

radial acceleration = v² /r = 5.8

total acceleration = √2 x 5.8

m x√2 x 5.8 = m x g xμ

μ = √2 x 5.8 / 9.8 = 0.836
