Answer:

6 km/h west

Explanation:

During part c of the hike, the hiker moved 6 km west, and the time was 9.45 am to 10.45 am.

So, we have:

- displacement: d = 6 km west

- time taken: from 9.45 am to 10.45 am = 1 hour

Therefore, the average velocity is given by the ratio between displacement and time taken:

$v=\frac{d}{t}=\frac{6 km}{1 h}=6 km/h$

and the direction is the same as the displacement (west)

What is the SI unit for intensity?

Allisa [31]

Answer:

The SI unit of intensity is the watt per square meter/metre (W/m^2.)

Explanation:

Intensity is equal to the power transferred per unit area. Since power is measured in watts (W) and 1 W = 1 J/s, then intensity can be viewed as how fast energy goes through a certain area.

In physics, intensity is often used when studying light, sound, or other phenomena that involve waves or energy transfer. (With waves, the power value is taken as the average power transfer over the wave's period.)

A bag of sugar weighs 3.50 lb on Earth. What would it weigh in newtons on the Moon, where the free-fall acceleration isone-sixth

Alex73 [517]

Answer:

$F_{Earth}$ = 15.57 N

$F_{Moon}$ = 2.60 N

$F_{Uranus}$ = 16.98 N

The mass of the bag is the same on the three planets. m=1.59 kg

Explanation:

The weight of the sugar bag on Earth is:

g=9.81 m/s²

m=3.50 lb=1.59 kg

$F_{Earth}$ =m·g=1.59 kg×9.81 m/s²= 15.57 N

The weight of the sugar bag on the Moon is:

g=9.81 m/s²÷6= 1.635 m/s²

$F_{Moon}$ =m·g=1.59 kg× 1.635 m/s²= 2.60 N

The weight of the sugar bag on the Uranus is:

g=9.81 m/s²×1.09=10.69 m/s²

$F_{Uranus}$ =m·g=1.59 kg×10.69 m/s²= 16.98 N

The mass of the bag is the same on the three planets. m=1.59 kg

When you hold a frozen banana treat in your hands, which statement BEST describes what is taking place? A. Heat is flowing from

Andrej [43]

Answer:

The answer is A

Explanation:

It is A because your body heat is warmer than the banana and when you hold it the heat is transferring over.

The acceleration due to gravity is higher on juniper Than on earth. The mass and weight of rock on juniper compared to that on e

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

2.5 times higher then that on the Earth

Explanation:

Gravity is higher on Jupiter then on Earth because Jupiter is much bigger, because of it's mass compared to Earth the gravity on Jupiter is about 2.4 - 2.5 times higher then Earths surface gravity which means a rock on Jupiter would be around "2.4 - 2.5 times as heavier then it would be on Earth."

Hope this helps.
