Answer:

The correct option is c. about 1/10 as great

Explanation:

The problem can be understood by the concept of impulse. Impulse is a integral of force.

                                  Impulse = Force × Time

As when we bend our knees upon reaching the ground the time of contact is about 10 times that of a stiff-legged. so,

                                 (Time)_{bend} = 10 × Time

So the force will be:

                                Force = \frac{Impulse}{(Time)_{bend} }

                                Force = \frac{Impulse}{10* Time}

                                Force = \frac{1}{10} × \frac{Impulse}{Time}

Hence the force is one tenth of the total as seen by the calculation.

How are base units and derived units related?
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

SI derived units

Other quantities, called derived quantities, are defined in terms of the seven base quantities via a system of quantity equations. The SI derived units for these derived quantities are obtained from these equations and the seven SI base units.

What property do the following elements have in common? Li, C, and F A) They are poor conductors of electricity. B) Each element
Aloiza [94]

Answer: Option (D) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The given elements Li, C and F are all second period elements. So, when we move from left to right across a period then there occurs increase in number of valence electrons as there occurs increase in total number of electrons.

So, it means more electrons are added to the same energy level.

Thus, we can conclude that a property of valence electrons for each element is located in the same energy level is common in the given elements.

Which are characteristics of electromagnetic waves?check all that apply.
emmainna [20.7K]

Correct choices are marked in bold:

travel in straight lines and can bounce off surfaces  --> TRUE, normally electromagnetic waves travel in straight lines, however they can be reflected by objects, bouncing off their surfaces

travel through space at the speed of light  --> TRUE, all electromagnetic waves in space (vacuum) travel at the speed of light, c=3\cdot 10^8 m/s)

travel only through matter  --> FALSE; electromagnetic waves can also travel through vacuum

travel only through space  --> FALSE, electromagnetic waves can also travel through matter

can bend around objects  --> TRUE, this is what happens for instance when diffraction occurs: electromagnetic waves are bended around obstacles or small slits

move by particles bumping into each other  --> FALSE, electromagnetic waves are oscillations of electric and magnetic fields, so no particles are involved

move by the interaction between an electric field and a magnetic field --> TRUE, electromagnetic waves consist of an electric field and a magnetic field oscillating in a direction perpendicular to the direction of motion of the wave
