Answer: 160 m

Explanation: First find time or t using the formula for acceleration:

a = vf - vi / t

So t is equal to:

t = vf - vi / a

= 0 m/s - 20 m/s / -2.5 m/s²

= 8 s

To find the distance use the formula for velocity:

v = d / t

Derive for d:

d = v x t

= 20 m/s x 8 s

= 160 m

yulyashka [42]

Answer:

Frequency is <u>the number of waves</u> that move past a point during a specific amount of time. Frequency is measured in <u>Hertz</u>, and is classified as high, medium, or low. Frequency is interpreted as the <u>pitch</u> of a sound. Intensity refers to the <u>loudness</u> of a sound and is measured in <u>decibels</u>. Louder sounds <u>increase</u> the rate of nerve signals relayed to the brain.

How much power will it take to move a 10 kg mass at an acceleration of 2 m/s² a distance of 10 meters in 5 seconds?
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

100 Watts

Explanation:

<u>These equations are needed to work out the answer:</u>

  • power= work done/ time taken
  • work done= force* distance
  • force= mass* acceleration

force: 10 kg* 2m/s= 20

work done: 20* 10m=200

power: 200/2=100

The burner on a stove is 325° f. given that the burner emits electromagnetic radiation as a blackbody, what is the maximum wavel
lesantik [10]
To solve this, we use the Wien's Displacement Law as shown in the attached picture. First, convert the temperature to Kelvin. 

C to F:
C = (F - 32)*5/9
C = (325 - 32)*5/9 = 162.78 °C

C to K:
K = C + 273
K = 162.78 + 273 = 435.78 K

λmax = 2898/435.78 = <em>6</em><em>.65 μm</em>

Igoryamba

Answer:

It should fly 8° to west of south at 430km/h

Explanation:

According to the diagram. X components for both velocities must have the same magnitude in order to get the resultant velocity due south.

V_{w}*cos(45) = V_{A}*sin(\alpha )   Solving for α:

α = 8.03°
