Answer:

3.33 minutes (3 minutes and 20 seconds)

Explanation:

Speed of the runner = s = 5 m/s

We need to calculate how will it take for runner to complete 1 km. We have the speed, the distance and we need to find the time. Before performing any calculations, we must convert the values to same units.

Speed is in m/s and distance is in kilometers. So we have to either convert speed to km/s or distance into meters. In this case, converting distance into meters would be a convenient option.

1 kilo meters = 1000 meters

The distance, speed and time are related by the equation:

Distance = Speed x Time

So,

Time = Distance/Speed

Using the values, we get:

t = 1000/5

t = 200 seconds

This means, the runner can complete 1 kilometers in 200 seconds. Since, there are 60 seconds in a minute, we can convert this time to minutes, by dividing it by 60. i.e.

200 \text{ sec} = \frac{200}{60} \text{ min} = 3.33 \text{ min}

Thus, it will take the runner 3.33 minutes (3 minutes and 20 seconds) to travel 1 km.

what happens when light travels from one medium to another with a different index of refraction at a zero degree angle of incide
zaharov [31]

Answer:

No Refraction takes places

Explanation:

When light travels from one medium to another at an angle of incidence 0 degree then no refraction takes place .

It is because according to Refraction law

                    n_{i}sini = n_{r}sinr

where n_{i} ,n_{r} are the refractive index of medium of incidence and medium of refraction .

When i = 0 , left side of the equation becomes 0 and thus r (angle of refraction) must be zero. So No refraction takes place

If a transparent blue filter is placed over a camera lens, what happens to visible light entering it
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

If you pass white light through a blue filter, then only blue color will appear on the other end. This is because a blue filter will only allow blue light through it. And will absorb other color. In other words the rest colors would disappear. Hence the camera would receive just blue light. This phenomenon is referred to as color by subtraction.

¿A qué velocidad debe circular un auto de carreras para recorrer 87 km en 20 min? (pasar a metros por segundo m/s)
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

Velocidad en m / s = 72,25 m / s

Explanation:

Dado

Distancia a recorrer por el coche de carreras = 87 Km

1 km = 1000 m

Por lo tanto, 87 km = 87000 m

Tiempo necesario para viajar 87 km / 87000 metros = 20 minutos o 20 * 60 = 1200 segundos

Velocidad en m / s = 87000/1200

Velocidad en m / s = 72,25 m / s
