Answer:

a) The average velocity is 32 m/s

b) See the attached figure. Slope of the line = 32.

Graphic: a line that passes through the points (0; 50) and (5; 210)

Explanation:

a) The average velocity is calculated as the displacement over time:

v = ΔX / Δt

where

ΔX : displacement ( final position - initial position)

Δt : time (final time - initial time)

Considering the origin of the reference system as the position where the observer is:

ΔX = 210 m - 50 m = 160 m

Δt  = 5 s

v = 160 m / 5 s = 32 m/s

b) In the graphic position vs time, plot a line that passes through the points (0, 50) (because at time 0, the car is 50 m away from you, the center of the reference system) and (5, 210). The x-axis, time, is in seconds and the y-axis, position, in meters. The slope of the line is calculated as:

slope = (X₂ - X₁) /(t₂ - t₁) = (210 - 50) / (5 - 0) = 32. Then, the velocity is equal to the slope of the line. See the attached figure.

A sinusoidal electromagnetic wave from a radio station passes perpendicularly through an open window that has area of 0.500 m2 .
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

The energy of the wave is 1.435 x 10⁻⁴ J

Explanation:

Given;

area of the window, A = 0.5 m²

the rms value of the field, E = 0.06 V/m

The peak value of electric field is given by;

E_o = \sqrt{2} *E_{rms}\\\\E_o = \sqrt{2}*0.06\\\\E_o = 0.0849 \ V/m

The average intensity of the wave is given by;

I_{avg} = \frac{c \epsilon_o E_o^2 }{2}\\\\I_{avg} =  \frac{(3*10^8)( 8.85*10^{-12}) (0.0849)^2 }{2}\\\\I_{avg} = 9.569*10^{-6} \ W/m^2

The average power of the wave is given by;

P = I x A

P = (9.569 x 10⁻⁶ W/m²) (0.5 m²)

P = 4.784 x 10⁻⁶ W

The energy of the wave is given by;

E = P x t

E = (4.784 x 10⁻⁶ W)(30 s)

E = 1.435 x 10⁻⁴ J

Therefore, the energy of the wave is 1.435 x 10⁻⁴ J

Which example is a body fossil? a) dino bones b) shrimp burrow c)dino footprint d)an ornithopod track
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

The hard structure like dino bones, teeth and shells are the examples of body fossils.

Option: A

<u>Explanation: </u>

The body fossils are common type of fossils found in the world. <em>These body fossils are formed by the remains of the ‘dead animals and plants’.</em> The body fossils are <em>hard parts of the dino teeth, bones, shells, woody trunks, branches, and stems.</em> The body fossils are formed in different ways and they are the remains of <em>the body parts of ancient animals, plants and other life forms.</em>

<em>They are rarely found in connected nature and are like large vertebrates like dinosaur bones, skulls and teeth’s. </em> The body fossils are also formed in different ways they are formed like a plants or animals dies in a watery environment and they can be buried in mud or silt they cannot decompose.

They build the top and hardens into the rocks at over time sedimentation.  Two types of tissues are decomposed, they are soft and hard tissues.in the decomposition of there leaving hard bones, shells and teeth’s are behind and soft tissues are quickly decomposes.

Why are hurricanes considered more damaging than tornadoes when tornadoes have stronger winds
chubhunter [2.5K]

-- A tornado follows a path that's a few miles wide, for a few hours.
   Then it's all over.

-- A hurricane follows a path that's several hundred miles wide,
   for a week or two, before it's over.
   Then comes the rain, continuing on the same path, for another week.

Two resistors with resistance values of 4.5 Ω and 2.3 Ω are connected in series or parallel
kenny6666 [7]

Explanation:

Given that,

Two resistors 4.5 Ω and 2.3 Ω .

Potential difference = 30 V

When they are in series, the current through each resistor remains the same. First find the equivalent resistance.

R' = 4.5 + 2.3

= 6.8 Ω

Current,

I=\dfrac{V}{R'}\\\\I=\dfrac{30}{6.8}\\\\=4.41\ A

So, the current through both lightbulb is the same i.e. 4.41 A.

When they are in parallel, the current divides.

Current flowing in 4.5 resistor,

I_1=\dfrac{V}{R_1}\\\\=\dfrac{30}{4.5}\\\\I_1=6.7\ A

Current flowing in 2.3 ohm resistor,

I_2=\dfrac{V}{R_2}\\\\=\dfrac{30}{2.3}\\\\I_2=13.04

In parallel combination, are brighter than bulbs in series.
