The correct answer is gamma

Gamma rays are the most penetrating ones and as much as a meter of concrete is needed to stop them, so a few centimeters is nothing.

A sports car skids off of a wet mountain road at 48.5 m/s and lands in the river, 110
Oxana [17]

Answer:

  about 4.74 seconds

Explanation:

The time to fall distance d from height h is given by ...

  t = √(2d/g)

  t = √(2·110 m/(9.8 m/s^2)) ≈ 4.74 s

It will take the car about 4.74 seconds to fall 110 meters to the river.

__

We assume the car's speed is horizontal, so does not add or subtract anything to/from the time to fall from the height.

A passenger train left station A at 6:00 p.m. Moving with the average speed 45 mph, it arrived at station B at 10:00 p.m. A tran
marishachu [46]
<h2>Average speed of transit train is 60 mph</h2>

Explanation:

Average speed of passenger train = 45 mph

Time taken from station A to station B for passenger train  = 10:00 - 6:00 = 4 hours

Distance between station A to station B = 45 x 4 = 180 miles.

Time taken from station A to station B for transit train  =  4 - 1 = 3 hours

Distance between station A to station B = Average speed of transit train x Time taken from station A to station B for transit train

180 = Average speed of transit train x 3

Average speed of transit train = 60 mph

Average speed of transit train is 60 mph

EXPERTS/ACE and people that wanna help 4 sure only!
oee [108]
To do this you want to solve for one variable at a time. So we want to cancel out a variable. Lets cancel x. I will multiply the first equation by the number 4 to get 4y=4x-16.
Now lets solve equation 2 for y, giving
-3y=-4x+3 now add equation 1 to equation 2
Y =-13
Now plug that back in to either
-13=x-4
X=-9
So the answer is (-9,-13)

Two forces F1=20N and F2=30N are acting on an object as shown in figure: F1=20N F2=30N (i) Find the net force acting on the obje
Harman [31]

The net force is the 10N force and its direction is towards F2 force.

<h3>What is resultant force?</h3>

The resultant force or the net force is the actual force that acts on a body. We are told that the two forces act in opposite directions hence the net force is F2 - F1  = 30 N - 20 N = 10 N.

ii) The direction of this net force is going to be towards the 30N force.

iii) If the body does not move under the application of these forces then the F1 force must be reinforced by another force which balances it against the F2 force.
