i think the average speed was 54.54 (mph)

Average speed = (distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)

   = (300 miles) / (5.5 hours)

   = ( 300 / 5.5 ) miles/hour

   = 54.55 mph

The universe was 5 percent its current size when light left objects observed now at redshift of ______________

Nuetrik [128]

The redshift of distant galaxy are larger than those of closer galaxies, which indicates that the galaxy is receding at a faster rate.

The Universe was 5 percent its current size when light left objects now at redshift of 19.

Reasons:

The size of the universe represented as a scale factor with relation to the redshift can be presented as follows;

$\displaystyle \frac{a}{a_0} =\mathbf{ \frac{1}{1 + z}}$

Where;

a₀ = The current size of the Universe

a = The size of the early Universe = 5% of a

Therefore;

$\displaystyle \frac{a}{a_0} =5\% = 0.05= \frac{1}{1 + z}$

$\displaystyle 0.05 = \frac{1}{1 + z}$

0.05 + 0.05·z = 1

$\displaystyle z = \mathbf{ \frac{1 - 0.05}{0.05} } = 19$

The redshift is of the observed light is, z = 19

A car is traveling at 70 km/h. It then uniformly decelerates to a complete stop in 12 s. Find its acceleration ( in m/s2 ).

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

Acceleration will be $-1.620m/sec^2$

Explanation:

We have given initial speed of the car is 70 km/hr

We know that 1 km = 1000 m

And 1 hour = 3600 sec

So $70km/hr=70\times \frac{1000m}{3600sec}=19.444m/sec$

It is given that car stops in 12 sec

So final speed of the car v = 0 m/sec

Time t = 12 sec

From first equation of motion v = u+at

So $0=19.444+a\times 12$

$a=\frac{-19.444}{12}=-1.620m/sec^2$ ( negative sign indicates that speed of the car will constantly decrease )

A wave emitted from a source has a frequency of 10 Hz and wavelength 2.5 m. How much time will it take to reach a person located

const2013 [10]

Answer:

time taken by the wave to reach the person is 0.2 s

Explanation:

As we know that the speed of the wave is given as

$v = \lambda f$

here we know that the wavelength of the wave is

$\lambda = 2.5 m$

$f = 10 Hz$

now speed of the wave is given as

$v = 10(2.5)$

$v = 25 m/s$

Now time taken by the wave to reach 5 m distance is

$t = \frac{L}{v}$

$t = \frac{5}{25}$

$t = 0.2 s$
