Answer:

Option C is correct

Explanation:

"The time is determined by the vertical distance. The formula is sqr(2d/a) = t. There still is no acceleration in the horizontal direction."

For the first drive

d = d

t = sqr(2d/a)

r = v  

For the Second drive

d = ??

t = sqr(2d/a)

r = 2v

Since the times are same, equate the results.

t = d/v = d1/2v

v*d1 = 2v*d The v's cancel because they are related.

d1 = 2d.

You go twice as far as you did before.

Option C is correct

Explain why the speed of light is lower than<br> 3.0 x 108 m/s as it goes through different media.
jekas [21]

Answer:

Sample Response: In a vacuum, there are no atoms or particles that interfere with the path of light. However, in other media, the speed of light is lower than 3.0 × 108 m/s because the wave is continuously absorbed and re-emitted by each atom in its path. The differences in speed are due to the composition of the medium and the density of the particles in the medium.

A car moves at 20 m s' for 15 minutes. Calculate the distance travelled
Firdavs [7]

Explanation:

Calculating this according to the m/s rate

Now solving the question

If the car goes 20 m/s mathematically we can generate it as

15 × 60 = 600 secs

If the car goes 20 meters per every second it means

The car will go 20 meters for 900 secs

Which is 900 ×20 = 18000m/s

=18000÷1000 = 1km

Therefore the answer is 18km

Describe the phases of the moon along with a picture.​
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

The eight Moon phases:

Waxing Crescent: In the Northern Hemisphere, we see the waxing crescent phase as a thin crescent of light on the right. First Quarter: We see the first quarter phase as a half moon. Waxing Gibbous: The waxing gibbous phase is between a half moon and full moon.

The phases of the Moon are the different ways the Moon looks from Earth over about a month. As the Moon orbits around the Earth, the half of the Moon that faces the Sun will be lit up. The different shapes of the lit portion of the Moon that can be seen from Earth are known as phases of the Moon.

<h2>The 8 phases (in order) are:</h2>
  • New moon.
  • Waxing Crescent.
  • First Quarter.
  • Waxing Gibbous.
  • Full moon.
  • Waning Gibbous.
  • Third Quarter.
  • Waning Crescent.

What speed would a fly with a mass of 0.72 g need in order to have the same kinetic energy as a 1250 kg automobile traveling at
Elena L [17]
Kinetic of automobile

Mass m = 1,250 Kg;         V = 11 m/s

Formula: K.E = 1/2 mV²

               K.E = 1/2(1,250 Kg)(11 m/s)²

               K.E = 75,625 J

Speed required for insect to have the same kinetic energy as automobile

Mass of insect = 0.72 g convert to Kg   m = 7.2 x 10⁻⁴ Kg

K.E = 1/2 mV²  Derive V =?

 V = 2 K.E/m

 V = √2(75,625 J)/7.2 x 10⁻4 Kg

 V = √2.1 x 10⁸ m²/s²

 V = 14,491.34 m/s  (velocity of insect)
