Prejudice has to do with the inflexible and irrational attitudes and opinions held by members of one group about another, while discrimination refers to behaviors directed against another group. Being prejudiced usually means having preconceived beliefs about groups of people or cultural practices.

The speed of surface waves in water decreases as the water becomes shallower. Suppose waves travel across the surface of a lake

Elanso [62]

Answer:

The correct solution is "1.2 m".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Wavelength of waves,

λ = 1.5 m

Speed of waves on surface,

V = 2 m/sec

Speed of waves in water,

V₁ = 1.6 m/sec

As we know,

⇒ $V=f\times \lambda$

or,

⇒ $f=\frac{V}{\lambda}$

On substituting the values, we get

⇒ $=\frac{2}{1.5}$

⇒ $=1.33 \ Hz$

hence,

⇒ $\lambda_1=\frac{V_1}{f}$

On substituting the values, we get

⇒ $=\frac{1.6}{1.33}$

⇒ $=1.2 \ m$

Which source of power can reduce emission of carbon dioxide?

ki77a [65]

Answer:

wind

Explanation:

this is because the others when burnt releases large amounts of carbon of carbon dioxide as they are carbon based and oxidises when burnt. However wind is renewable and converts the kinetic energy in the wind to electrical energy by the use of a turbine

Determine the kinetic of 600 kg roller coaster car that is moving with the speed of 35.2 m/s.

antiseptic1488 [7]

The answer is 10,560 Joules or 1.1*10^4

Explanation:

Step 1: Calculate
The equation for Kinetic Energy is

Kinetic energy=.5 times Mass times Velocity²
KE=.5*m*v²

so we plug in our numbers
KE=.5*600*35.2²

This works out to be 10,560 Joules or 1.1*10^4

A car is raised on a lift at a service station (so it has some amount of gravitational potential energy relative to the ground).

kenny6666 [7]

Answer:Twice

Explanation:

It is given that car is raised on a lift with respect to ground.

Suppose car is raised by a height of h m from ground having mass m so gain in Potential Energy by car is

Gain in $P.E._1=m\times g\times h$
