Explanation:

physical quantity is a property of a material or system that can be quantified by measurement. A physical quantity can be expressed by either a numerical value, the product of a numerical value and a unit or a finite sequence of numerical values and units.

Is the term used to describe an object with enough orbital energy to escape earth completely?

Komok [63]

Escape velocity describes its speed. It becomes a satellite instead of falling back to earth because as it falls under Earth’s gravity the Earth has moved so the satellite falls around the planet instead of down to the ground.

Now assume that the stream flows east at 4.0 m/s. draw the vectors v⃗ w, representing the velocity of the stream, and v⃗ tot, re

ELEN [110]

Remember that the total velocity of the motion is the vector sum of the velocity you would have in still water and the stream. Always place the vectors carefully to be able to come up with an accurate sum vector.

A car accelerates from rest at 1.0 m/s2 for 20.0 second along a straight road. It then moves at a constant speed for half an hou

Whitepunk [10]

Total distance = 36500 m

The average velocity = 19.73 m/s

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

vo=initial velocity=0(from rest)

a=acceleration= 1 m/s²

t₁ = 20 s

t₂ = 0.5 hr = 1800 s

t₃= 30 s

Required

Total distance

Solution

State 1 : acceleration

$\tt d=vo.t+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2\\\\d=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 1\times 20^2\rightarrow vo=0\\\\d=200~m$

$\tt vt=vo+at\\\\vt=at\rightarrow vo=0\\\\vt=1\times 20\\\\vt=20~m/s$

State 2 : constant speed

$\tt d=v\times t\\\\d=20\times 1800\\\\d=36000~m$

State 3 : deceleration

$\tt vt=vo+at\rightarrow vt=0(stop)\\\\vo=-at\\\\20=-a.30~s\\\\a=-\dfrac{2}{3}m/s^2(negative=deceleration)$

$\tt d=vot+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2\\\\d=20.30-\dfrac{1}{2}.\dfrac{2}{3}.30^2\\\\d=300~m$

Total distance : state 1+ state 2+state 3

$\tt 200 + 36000 + 300=36500~m$

the average velocity = total distance : total time

$\tt avg~velocity=\dfrac{36500}{20~s+1800~s+30~s}=19.73~m/s$

Red clothes look red because they REFLECT the red light, and absorb light of other colors.

Why is global warming a cause of concern for the environmentalists?

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Because it can pollute the air and cause wild life to eat stuff that has been contimanted by the air
