No. They are different. The bird's distance for that period of time is double the height of the nest above the ground. His displacement for the same time is zero ... the length between the start point and end point.

Jasper made a list of the properties of electromagnetic waves. Identify the mistake in the list. Electromagnetic Wave Properties

Nata [24]

Answer:

Statement 2 is wrong

Explanation:

To check the statements in this exercise, let's describe the main properties of electromagnetic waves. Let's describe the characteristics

* they are transverse waves

* formed by the oscillations of the electric and magnetic fields

* the speed of the wave is the speed of light

with these concepts let's review the final statements

1) True. Formed by the oscillation of the two fields

2) False. They are transverse waves

3) True. Can travel by vacuum as they are supported by oscillations of the electric and magnetic fields

4) True. They all have the same speed of light

An object with velocity 141 ft/s has a kinetic energy of 1558.71 ftâˆ™lbf, on a planet whose gravity is 31.5 ft/s2. What is its

Sidana [21]

Answer:

The mass of the object is 5.045 lbm.

Explanation:

Given;

kinetic energy of the object, K.E = 1558.71 ft.lbf

velocity of the object, V = 141 ft/s

The kinetic energy of the object is calculated as;

$K.E = \frac{1}{2} mV^2\\\\mV^2 = 2K.E\\\\m = \frac{2K.E}{V^2} \\\\1 \ lbf = 32.174 \ lbm.ft/s^2\\\\m = \frac{2 \ \times \ 1558.71 \ ft.lbf \ \times \ 32.174 \ lbm.ft/s^2 }{(141 \ ft/s)2 \ \ \times \ \ \ \ 1 \ lbf\ }$

$m = \frac{(2 \ \times \ 1558.71 \ \times \ 32.174) \ lbm.ft^2/s^2 }{(141 )^2\ ft^2/s^2 }\\\\m = \frac{(2 \ \times \ 1558.71 \ \times \ 32.174) \ lbm }{(141 )^2 }\\\\m = 5.045 \ lbm$
