Two motorcycles are traveling in opposite directions at the same speed when one of the cyclists blasts her horn, which has frequ
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

6ms^-1

Explanation:

Given that the frequency difference is

( 563- 544) = 19

So alsoThe wavelength of each wave is = v/f = 344 /544

and there are 19 of this waves

So it is assumed that each motorcycle has moved 0.5 of this distance

in one second thus the speed of the motorcycles will be

=> 19/2 x 344/544 = 6.0 m/s

The energy in the typical thunderstorm is about 1.4×1011j. a typical lightning flash transfers 30 c across a potential differenc

780 seconds, or 13 minutes.

In the future, please use proper capitalization. There's a significant difference in the meaning between mV and MV. One of them indicated millivolts while the other indicates megavolts. For this problem, I'll make the following assumptions about the values presented. They are:
Total energy = 1.4x10^11 Joules (J)
Current per flash = 30 Columbs (C)
Potential difference = 30 Mega Volts (MV)

First, let's determine the power discharged by each bolt. That would be the current multiplied by the voltage, so
30 C * 30x10^6 V = 9x10^8 CV = 9x10^8 J

Now that we know how many joules are dissipated per flash, let's determine how flashes are needed.
1.4x10^11 / 9x10^8 = 1.56E+02 = 156

Since each flash takes 5 seconds, that means that it will take about 5 * 156 = 780 seconds which is about 780/60 = 13 minutes.

jeka94

Answer:

This question will be answered based on general photosynthetic understanding. The answer is:

The production of oxygen would increase

Explanation:

The characteristics of most plant forms is their ability to photosynthesize i.e. use solar energy (from sunlight) to make food (chemical energy). The product of this photosynthetic process is OXYGEN gas, which is released as a waste product via the stomata on their leaves. Note that, photosynthesis cannot occur without LIGHT as it provides the energy needed for the process.

Hence, in the duckweed plant like every other photosynthetic plant, the increase in the intensity and duration of exposure to light means the rate at which photosynthesis occurs will be increased. An increased photosynthetic rate means the synthesis of the products will also be increased i.e. glucose and OXYGEN.
