Answer:

v = 4.03 m/s

Explanation:

It is given that,

Distance covered by a lizard, d = 2.1 m

Time taken by lizard, t = 0.52 s

We need to find the average speed of the lizard. The distance covered divided by time taken is called the average speed of lizard. So,

v=\dfrac{d}{t}\\\\v=\dfrac{2.1\ m}{0.52\ s}\\\\v=4.03\ m/s

So, the average speed of the lizard is 4.03 m/s.

A car is traveling at 7.0 m/s when the driver applies the brakes. The car moves 1.5 m before it comes to a complete stop. If the
viva [34]

Answer:

d. 6.0 m

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the car, u = 7.0 m/s

distance traveled by the car, d = 1.5 m

Assuming the car to be decelerating at a constant rate when the brakes were applied;

v² = u² + 2(-a)s

v² = u² - 2as

where;

v is the final velocity of the car when it stops

0 = u² - 2as

2as = u²

a = u² / 2s

a = (7)² / (2 x 1.5)

a = 16.333 m/s

When the velocity is 14 m/s

v² = u² - 2as

0 = u² - 2as

2as = u²

s = u² / 2a

s = (14)² / (2 x 16.333)

s = 6.0 m

Therefore, If the car had been moving at 14 m/s, it would have traveled 6.0 m before stopping.

The correct option is d

What's the climate change over the past 200 years
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

The Spanish philosopher George Santayana wrote, “those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” When it comes to climate change, repeating the past is a luxury we can’t afford. If partisan politics continues to derail policy or if denial continues to win over science, it will mean irreversible changes to our planet. Future generations will look at ours as the one that didn’t have the courage to act, rather than the one that recognized the fierce urgency of the moment and met it head on.

With this in mind, we’ve created a climate change timeline highlighting the evolution of science, the intrusion of denial, and the sluggishness of policy over the past 200 years. Let’s learn from the mistakes of the past, so we can make tomorrow a brighter—but not hotter—future.

Two identical traveling waves, moving in the same direction, are out of phase by π/5.0 rad. What is the amplitude of the resulta
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

Therefore the amplitude of the resultant wave is =0.95 y_m

Explanation:

The equation of wave:

y=A sin (kx-ωt)

For wave 1:

y₁=A sin (kx-ωt) = y_{m}sin (kx-ωt)

For wave 2:

y₂=A sin (kx-ωt+Φ) = y_{m}sin (kx-ωt+Φ)

Where A= amplitude=y_m

The angular frequency \omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}

k=\frac{2\pi}{\lambda} , \lambda= wave length.

t= time

T= Time period

\phi = phase difference =  \frac{\pi}{5}

The resultant wave will be

y = y₁ + y₂

 =y_m sin (kx-ωt) + y_m sin (kx-ωt+Φ)

 =y_m {sin (kx-ωt) + sin (kx-ωt+Φ)}

 =y_m\  sin(\frac{kx-\omega t +\phi + kx-\omega t }2)\ cos(\frac{kx-\omega t  +\phi -kx+\omega t}2)

 =y_m\  sin({kx-\omega t +\frac\phi 2)\ cos(\frac{\phi }2)

=y_m\ cos(\frac{\phi }2) sin({kx-\omega t +\frac\phi 2)

Therefore the amplitude of the resultant wave is

=y_m\ cos(\frac{\phi }2)

=y_m\ cos(\frac{\pi }{10})

=0.95 y_m

A cyclist is riding his bike up a mountain trail. When he starts up the trail , he is going 8 m/s. As the trail gets steeper, he
Mrac [35]

Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

change in speed = (speed at the end) - (speed at the beginning)

Our cyclist's change in speed = (3 m/s) - (8 m/s) = -5 m/s

Acceleration = (-5 m/s) / (60 seconds)

<em>Acceleration = -1/12 m/s²</em>
