Yes, you need to convert unless the question specifically requires km/h.

In Speed Study Number 1, we looked at two cars traveling the same distance at different speeds on city streets. Car "A" traveled

Ganezh [65]

Answer:

230.4 s

Explanation:

The speed of car A is

$v_A = 35 mi/h$

and the distance travelled is

$d = 10 mi$

so the time taken for car A is

$t_A = \frac{d}{v_A}=\frac{10 mi}{35 mi/h}=0.286 h$

The speed of car B is

$v_B = 45 mi/h$

and the distance travelled is

$d = 10 mi$

so the time taken for car B is

$t_B = \frac{d}{v_B}=\frac{10 mi}{45 mi/h}=0.222 h$

So the difference in time is

$\Delta t = t_A - t_B = 0.286 h -0.222 h=0.064 h$

Which corresponds to

$\Delta t = 0.064 h \cdot 3600 s/h = 230.4 s$

so car B arrived 230.4 s before car A.

On a hot day, the deck of a small ship reaches a temperature of 48

AlekseyPX

The final temperature of the seawater-deck system is 990°C.

The increment in temperature adds up the thermal energy into the object. This energy is Heat energy.

The deck of a small ship reaches a temperature Ti= 48.17°C seawater on the deck to cool it down. During the cooling, heat Q =3,710,000 J are transferred to the seawater from the deck. Specific heat of seawater= 3,930 J/kg°C.

Suppose for 1 kg of sea water, the heat transferred from the system is given by

3,710,000 = 1 x 3,930 x (T - 48.17)

T = 990°C to the nearest tenth.

The final temperature of the seawater-deck system is 990°C.

A 0.0780 kg lemming runs off a

kotegsom [21]

Answer:

5.01 J

Explanation:

Info given:

mass (m) = 0.0780kg

height (h) = 5.36m

velocity (v) = 4.84 m/s

gravity (g) = 9.81m/s^2

1. First, solve for Kinetic energy (KE)

KE = 1/2mv^2

1/2(0.0780kg)(4.84m/s)^2 = 0.91 J

so KE = 0.91 J

2. Next, solve for Potential energy (PE)

PE = mgh

(0.0780kg)(9.81m/s^2)(5.36m) = 4.10 J

so PE = 4.10 J

3. Mechanical Energy , E = KE + PE

Plug in values for KE and PE

KE + PE = 0.91J + 4.10 J = 5.01 J

Monochromatic light of wavelength λ=136.8μ m is shone at normal incidence through a thin film of thickness t resting atop a full

inn [45]

Answer:

1.8 × 10⁻⁸ Hm

Explanation:

Given that:

The refractive index of the film = 19

The wavelength of the light = 136.8 μ m

The thickness can be calculated by using the formula shown below as:

$Thickness=\frac {\lambda}{4\times n}$

Where, n is the refractive index of the film

${\lambda}$ is the wavelength

So, thickness is:

$Thickness=\frac {136.8\ \mu\ m}{4\times 19}$

Thickness = 1.8 μ m

Since,

1 μ m = 10⁻⁸ Hm

So,

Thickness = 1.8 × 10⁻⁸ Hm
