When a layer of cold air close to the ground is covered by a layer of warmer air, sound waves traveling upward may be bent, or refracted, by the difference in temperature and redirected toward the ground.
Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Global Positioning Systems (GPS) is a system which uses a network of satellites to construct maps. So, that it would be easy to trace location of a person, or to reach over a certain place.
It helps an individual by showing the route of destination wherever he/she wants to reach along with the total time to reach over the place.
Thus, GPS can determine the elevation of a given area and also it can determine latitude and longitude of a given area. As each GPS satellite broadcasts with a high power, narrow bandwidth, down link signal which can be received by our small hand held receiver antenna called mobile phone.
A GPS cannot determine the composition of soil on mountain ranges.
Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options, GPS can determine the composition of soil on mountain ranges is not true about the Global Positioning Systems (GPS).
The percentage error in his experimental value is -51.97%.
<h3>What is percentage error?</h3>
This is the ratio of the error to the actual measurement, expressed in percentage.
To calculate the percentage error of the student, we use the formula below.
Formula:
- Error(%) = (calculated value-accepted value)100/(accepted............. Equation 1
From the question,
Given:
- Calculated value = 4.15 g/cm
- accepted value = 8.64 g/cm
Substitute these values into equation 1
- Error(%) = (4.15-8.64)100/8.64
- Error(%) = -4.49(100)/8.64
- Error(%) = -449/8.64
- Error(%) = -51.97 %
Hence, The percentage error in his experimental value is -51.97%.

The answer to your question is dioxygen carbide
Answer:
420000N
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of the train = 5.6 x 10⁵kg
Acceleration = 0.75m/s²
Unknown:
Resultant force = ?
Solution:
According to newton's second law, force is the product of mass and acceleration;
Force = mass x acceleration
Resultant force that acts on the train is given below;
Force = 5.6 x 10⁵kg x 0.75m/s² = 420000N
