Answer:

55 miles per hour

Explanation:

Given

Distance d = 55 miles

t_o =1.00 pm

t_f = 2.00 pm

Solution

Duration of the trip

\Delta t = t_f - t_o\\\\\Delta t = 2.00 pm - 1.00 pm\\\\\Delta t = 1 hour

Average velocity

v = \frac{d}{\Delta t} \\\\v = \frac{55}{1} \\\\v = 55 mph

27.5 because of you divide the 55miles with the time you get your velocity which is the speed.

A burning candle is covered by a jar as shown in the picture. The whole arrangement has a mass of 500 g. What will be the approx
topjm [15]

Technically, I can't answer the question, because you won't
let me see the picture that goes along with it and is a part of it. 
But I'm familiar with the set-up, have dealt with the question before,
and I can answer it from my previous experience and general knowledge.

If there is 500g of mass inside the jar when you lower it over
the candle, then there will be 500g of mass at any time after that,
forever, or until you pick up the jar and take some mass out or put
some more in.  It doesn't matter how long you wait.  It also doesn't
matter whether or not the candle is burning, whether or not the sun
is shining on the jar, or whether somebody comes along and spray-paints
the outside of the jar with black paint.  Matter is not created or destroyed. 
Whatever mass was inside when the jar got closed stays in there.

A parallel-plate capacitor, with air between the plates, is connected across a voltage source. This source establishes a potenti
kondaur [170]

Answer: 33.5 x 10⁻⁶ C

Explanation:

By definition, the capacitance is the relationship between the charge on one of the plates (assuming it's a capacitor) and the voltage between them:

C = Q / V

Now, it can be showed that we can find the capacitance of a parallel-plate capacitor, taking into account the geometry and the dielectric material only, as follows:

C = ε A /d = ε₀ εr A / d

If the dielectric is air, we can assume εr = 1

If the space between plates is filled with a dielectric of dielectric constant 7.74, the new value for capacitance (regarding the former value) must be 7.74 times larger, as A and d didn't change.

So, in order to produce the same potential difference between the plates, we need to increase the charge, exactly 7.7 times:

Q = 7.7. 4.33 . 10⁻⁶ C = 33.5 . 10⁻⁶ C

Elina [12.6K]

An animal might use more than one type of clue to find its way due to change in the way one mechanism used to work.

Different animals have different senses heightened, that lets them use different mechanisms to navigate. Some of the mechanism include remembering landmarks, solar navigation, star navigation, magnetoreception, olfaction, gravity receptors etc.

For example, a bird using landmark to navigate will find it hard to navigate in the same way again if the landmark has been changed. So it has to depend on other senses such as olfaction or magnetoreception to navigate.

Therefore, an animal might use more than one type of clue to find its way due to change in the way one mechanism used to work.

A cue ball has a mass of 0.5 kg. During a game of pool, the cue ball is struck and now has a velocity of 3 . When it strikes a s
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer: 3 m/s

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by using the law of conservation of momentum: during the collision between the two balls, the total momentum of the system before the collision and after the collision must be conserved:

p_i = p_f

The total momentum before the collision is given only by the cue ball, since the solid ball is initially at rest, therefore

p_i = m_c u_c = (0.5 kg)(3 m/s)=1.5 kg m/s

So, the final total momentum will also be

p_f = 1.5 kg m/s

And the total momentum after the collision is given only by the solid ball, since the cue ball is now at rest, therefore:

p_f = m_s v_s

from which we find the velocity of the solid ball

v_s = \frac{p_f}{m_s}=\frac{1.5 kg m/s}{0.5 kg}=3 m/s
