A car with a velocity of 6.4 m/s, forward, accelerates to a velocity of 10.6 m/s, forward, in 16 s. What is the card acceleratio
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

acceleration = 0.2625 m/s²

Explanation:

   acceleration = ( final velocity - initial velocity ) / time

Here the final velocity is  10.6 m/s and initial velocity is 6.4 m/s and time is 16 s.

using the equation:

acceleration =  ( 10.6 - 6.4 ) / 16

                     = 0.2625 m/s²

Lance Armstrong bikes at a constant speed up the Col d’Izoard, a famous mountain pass. Assume his teammates do such a good job r
svetoff [14.1K]

Work done against gravity to climb upwards is always stored in the form of gravitational potential energy

so we can say

W = mgh

here h = vertical height raised

so here we know that

h = 14.1 sin7.3 km

here we have

h = 1.79 km

now from above equation

W = (83 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)(1.79 \times 10^3 m)

W = 1.46 \times 10^6 J

so work done will be given by above value

Which of the following describe advantages of using radio waves over other electromagnetic waves to transmit information to Eart
Whitepunk [10]

The correct options are:

D

"Radio waves have a lower frequency, which makes them safer for humans."

B

"Radio waves take less energy to produce."

<h3>Why do we radio waves over other electromagnetic waves to transmit information to Earth? </h3>

Radio waves are electromagnetic waves with frequencies on the range from 10 KHz to 10 THz.

Now, remember that all electromagnetic waves have the same speed, which is the speed of light, and the energy of a wave is proportional to its frequency.

Particularly, we can see that radio waves have small frequencies (smaller than infrared light) so these waves carry very little energy.

With that in mind, the correct options are.

D

"Radio waves have a lower frequency, which makes them safer for humans."

B

"Radio waves take less energy to produce."

These are the two main reasons of why we use radio waves.

Nature selects organisms with specific ______to survive and reproduce
Effectus [21]

Answer:

Nature selects organisms with specific heritable traits to survive and reproduce

Explanation:

The Evolution Theory by natural selection dictates that organisms with specific inherited characteristics have better survival chances in the new environment.

Inheriting positive traits such as resistance to a certain disease will improve the survival chances of the organism to enable it reproduce and pass that gene to the next generation.
