A man pushes his lawnmower with a velocity of +0.75 m/s relative to the ground. A girl rides by on her bike with a velocity of +
SashulF [63]

Answer:

B. +5.75 m/s

Explanation:

When there are two bodies, a and b, whose velocities measured by a third observer (in this case, the ground) are V_a and V_b respectively, the relative velocity of B with respect to A is given by:

V_{ba}=V_b-V_a

Thus, the velocity of the girl relative to the lawnmower is:

V_{ba}=6.5\frac{m}{s}-0.75\frac{m}{s}\\V_{ba}=5.75\frac{m}{s}

DEFINE REFRACTION? describe how a ray of light is refracted when it passes through a glass block​
jek_recluse [69]
When a ray passes from air into glass the direction in which the light ray is travelling changes. The light ray appears to bend as it as it passes through the surface of the glass. ... This 'bending of a ray of light' when it passes from one substance into another substance is called refraction.

A man stands on top of a cliff and shouts.
satela [25.4K]

\small\bf \: let \: the \: distance \: of \: the \: man \: from \: the \: cliff \: be \: x

\small\bf \: thus \: time \: taken \: by \: sound \: to \: hit \: the \: cilff \: and \: return =  \frac{2x}{v}  = 1

\bf \to \: x =  \frac{320}{2} m = 160m

\small \bf \: thus \: the \: distance \: between \: the \: cliffs \:  = 160m \times 2 = 320m

Explain how a book can have energy even if it is not moving.
frutty [35]
Can something have energy even if it's not moving?
All moving objects have kinetic energy. When an object is in motion, it changes its position by moving in a direction: up, down, forward, or backward. ... Potential energy is stored energy. Even when an object is sitting still, it has energy stored inside that can be turned into kinetic energy (motion).


Does a book at rest have energy?
A World Civilization book at rest on the top shelf of a locker possesses mechanical energy due to its vertical position above the ground (gravitational potential energy).



Does a book lying on a table have energy?
The book lying on a desk has potential energy; the book falling off a desk has kinetic energy.
