Which answer is a scientifically accurate description of velocity?

Physics
1 answer:
Lyrx [107]3 years ago

The boat traveled from the dock north to the 200-meter marker in the bay in less than 5 minutes, giving the passengers several more hours to fish.

Explanation:

Velocity is the rate of change of displacement with time. It is a physical quantity that has both magnitude and direction.

When expressing velocity, we must consider the directional attribute as it distinguishes it from speed.

Statements:

The hiker began hiking the park's five-mile north hiking trail at 8:00 a.m. with plenty of daylight left to complete the hike before dark.

We are given the displacement of the hiker but the duration of traveling was not indicated. The starting time is known and there is nothing we can infer from it

The motorcyclist traveled along a highway at 55 mph and reached the campsite in less than the two-hour estimated time.

55mph is the speed of the motorcyclist and not velocity. There was no directional attribute.

Walking south along the two-mile canyon trail generally takes less time than traveling the same trail north because walking south is all downhill

This is not quantifiable.

The boat traveled from the dock north to the 200-meter marker in the bay in less than 5 minutes, giving the passengers several more hours to fish.

The 200m marker north is the displacement and the time is 5minutes. This is the most scientifically accurate description of velocity.

irina1246 [14]

Answer:

a)      I₁ = 11.2 Lux , vertical direction , b)      I₂ = 1.44 Lux

Explanation:

a) A polarized is a system that absorbs light that is not polarized in the direction of its axis, therefore half of the non-polarized light must be absorbed

consequently the above the processed light has half of the incident intensity and the directional of the polarized

          I₁ = I₀ / 2

          I₁ = 22.4 / 2

          I₁ = 11.2 Lux

is polarized in the vertical direction

b) The polarized light falls on a second polarizer, therefore it must comply with the law of Malus

         I₂ = I₁ cos² θ

         I₂ = 11.2 cos² 69

         I₂ = 1.44 Lux

If it is brittle, dissolves easily in water, has a high melting point, and conducts electric current it is a(n) __________.
Julli [10]

Answer:

Ionic Compound

Explanation:

We know that an ionic compound dissolves easily in water. Its melting point is very high, and it is a conductor.

The equation for Ionic Compound (IC) versus Electricity (EC) is

IC=1/2 divided by EC

EC is the base for the mathematics, so EC is a base warmth at 360.

360 divided by 1/2 is 180

That is the speed in which the current has.

Glad I could help!
