andrey2020 [161]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

<u>the autumnal equinox (when day and night are of equal length)</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

The first event occurs around the 22nd or 23rd in the month of September. What usually happens is that regions around the Northern Hemisphere (which includes all of North America and Europe) experience an equal length of day and night.

While the second event occurs around March 20th or 21st mainly observable in countries found in the Southern Hemisphere.

What does it mean when it says a scientific question must be supportable
Shkiper50 [21]

A good scientific question has certain characteristics. It should have some answers (real answers), should be testable (can be tested by someone through an experiment or measurements), leads to a hypothesis that is falsifiable (means it should generate a hypothesis that can be shown to fail), etc.

A transverse wave on a long horizontal rope with a
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

2 seconds

Explanation:

The frequency of a wave is related to its wavelength and  speed by the equation

f=\frac{v}{\lambda}

where

f is the frequency

v is the speed of the wave

\lambda is the wavelength

For the wave in this problem,

v = 2 m/s

\lambda=8 m

So the frequency is

f=\frac{2}{8}=0.25 Hz

The period of a wave is equal to the reciprocal of the frequency, so for this wave:

T=\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{0.25}=4 s

This means that the wave takes 4 seconds to complete one full cycle.

Therefore, the time taken for the wave to go from a point with displacement +A to a point with displacement -A is half the period, therefore for this wave:

t=\frac{T}{2}=\frac{4}{2}=2 s

A hockey puck is sliding across a frozen pond with an initial speed of 9.3 m/s. It comes to rest after sliding a distance of 42.
kondaur [170]

Answer:

The coefficient of kinetic friction between the puck and the ice is 0.11

Explanation:

Given;

initial speed, u = 9.3 m/s

sliding distance, S = 42 m

From equation of motion we determine the acceleration;

v² = u² + 2as

0 = (9.3)² + (2x42)a

- 84a = 86.49

a = -86.49/84

|a| = 1.0296

F_k = \mu_k N = ma

where;

Fk is the frictional force

μk is the coefficient of kinetic friction

N is the normal reaction = mg

μkmg = ma

μkg = a

μk = a/g

where;

g is the gravitational constant = 9.8 m/s²

μk = a/g

μk = 1.0296/9.8

μk = 0.11

Therefore, the coefficient of kinetic friction between the puck and the ice is 0.11

a marine biologist wants to know the total vertical distance a dolphin travel during a jump with the surface of the water being
marin [14]

From the starting depth to the surface, the vertical distance is 35 ft.

From the surface to the peak of the jump, the vertical distance is 27 ft.

From the peak of the jump to the surface, the vertical distance is 27 ft.

From the surface to the ending depth, the vertical distance is 18 ft.

Then the total vertical distance is ...

  35 ft + 27 ft + 27 ft + 18 ft = 107 ft
