Answer:

Option B. They use thermal updrafts to stay aloft

Explanation:

The sunlight warms the surface of the earth during noon and morning time and when this warming of the Earth's surface is not evenly done or uniform then this gives rise to the thermals. These are the rising air columns and rises when the air nearest to the earth heats up.

This is how some birds like vultures make use of the thermal updrafts to maintain flight.

"A block of metal weighs 40 N in air and 30 N in water. What is the buoyant force on the block due to the water? The density of

Alja [10]

Answer:

buoyant force on the block due to the water= 10 N

Explanation:

We know that

buoyant force(F_B) on a block= weight of the block in air (actual weight) - weight of block in water.

Given:

A block of metal weighs 40 N in air and 30 N in water.

F_B = 40-30= 10 N

therefore, buoyant force on the block due to the water= 10 N

Over a short interval the coordinate of a car in the meters isgiven by x(t) = 27t - 4.0 t3 where time t is in seconds,at the end

wariber [46]

Answer:

5. -24 m/s²

Explanation:

Acceleration: This can be defined as the rate of change of velocity.

The S.I unit of acceleration is m/s².

mathematically,

a = dv/dt ............................ Equation 1

Where a = acceleration, dv/dt = is the differentiation of velocity with respect to time.

But

v = dx(t)/dt

Where,

x(t) = 27t-4.0t³...................... Equation 2

Therefore, differentiating equation 2 with respect to time.

v = dx(t)/dt = 27-12t²............. Equation 3.

Also differentiating equation 3 with respect to time,

a = dv/dt = -24t

a = -24t .................... Equation 4

from the question,

At the end of 1.0 s,

a = -24(1)

a = -24 m/s².

Thus the acceleration = -24 m/s²

The right option is 5. -24 m/s²

dexar [7]

<h3>Deniel's average speed for the total</h3><h3>distance is 3.6 mph</h3>

Average speed is difined as the total distance travelled divided by the total time required to cover the distance. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

$Ave. Speed = \frac{Total distance }{Total time}$

To obtain the average speed of Daniel, we shall determine the distance travelled in each case. This is illustrated below:

Speed 1 (S₁) = 6 mph

Time 1 (t₁) = 0.8 h.

<h3>Distance 1 (D₁) =? </h3>

$Speed = \frac{Distance}{Time} \\\\S_{1} = \frac{D_{1}}{t_{1}} \\\\6 = \frac{D_{1}}{0.8}$

Cross multiply

D₁ = 6 × 0.8

Speed 2 (S₂) = 2 mph

Time 2 (t₂) = 1.2 h.

<h3>Distance 2 (D₂) =? </h3>

$S_{2} = \frac{D_{2}}{t_{2}}\\\\2 = \frac{D_{2}}{1.2}$

Cross multiply

D₂ = 2 × 1.2

Next, we shall determine the total time. This can be obtained as follow:

Time 1 (t₁) = 0.8 h.

Time 2 (t₂) = 1.2 h.

<h3>Total time (T) =? </h3>

T = t₁ + t₂

T = 0.8 + 1.2

Next, we shall determine the total distance. This can be obtained as follow:

Distance 1 (D₁) = 4.8 mile

Distance 2 (D₂) = 2.4 mile

<h3>Total distance (D) =?</h3>

D = D₁ + D₂

D = 4.8 + 2.4

Finally, we shall determine the average speed of Daniel. This can be obtained as follow:

Total time = 2 h

Total distance = 7.2 mile

<h3>Average speed =?</h3>

$Ave. speed = \frac{Total distance }{Total time} \\\\Ave. speed = \frac{7.2 }{2}$

<h3>Average speed = 3.6 mph</h3><h3 />

Therefore, the average speed of Daniel is 3.6 mph
