Internal energy is the total potential and kinetic energies in a substance, and thermal energy is the part of internal energy that can be transferred to another substance. The answer on edge would be C.

An airplane travels at 300 mi/h south for 2.00 h and then at 250 mi/h north for 750 miles. What is the average speed for the tri

Anettt [7]

Answer:

270 mi/h

Explanation:

Given that,

To the south,

v₁ = 300 mi/h, t₁ = 2 h

We can find distance, d₁

$d_1=v_1\times t_1\\\\d_1=300\times 2\\\\d_1=600\ \text{miles}$

To the north,

v₂ = 250 mi/h, d₂ = 750 miles

We can find time, t₂

$t_2=\dfrac{d_2}{v_2}\\\\t_2=\dfrac{750\ \text{miles}}{250\ \text{mi/h}}\\\\t_2=3\ h$

Now,

Average speed = total distance/total time

$V=\dfrac{d_1+d_2}{t_1+t_2}\\\\V=\dfrac{600+750}{2+3}\\\\V=270\ \text{mi/h}$

Hence, the average speed for the trip is 270 mi/h.

How can humidity be used to predict if it is going to rain?

postnew [5]

1. Humidity cannot be used to predict rain.
2. I'm pretty sure it's weather but I'm not 100% sure. Maybe like 89% sure.

3. Tempurature doesn't affect humidity.

4. Not sure but I think its the 3rd one
