5.7 km/h north and 5.8 km/h west are instantaneous velocities, while 8.1 km/h northwest is the average velocity.<span>

The answer choice above is correct.

The instantaneous velocities are the actual </span>velocities while traveling ( the velocity during that instant ). The average velocity is the average of the instantaneous velocities ( the speed in one direction equivalent to the two speeds <span>in different directions ).

I used speed in the explanation because velocity is speed with direction.</span>

Calculate the speed of a gamma ray with a frequency of 3.0 x 10^19 Hz and a wavelength of 1.0 x 10^-11 m.
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

Speed of gamma rays = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

Explanation:

Given:

Frequency of gamma ray = 3 x 10¹⁹ Hz

Wavelength of gamma rays = 1 x 10⁻¹¹ meter

Find:

Speed of gamma rays

Computation:

Velocity = Frequency x wavelength

Speed of gamma rays = Frequency of gamma ray x Wavelength of gamma rays

Speed of gamma rays = [3 x 10¹⁹][1 x 10⁻¹¹]

Speed of gamma rays = 3 x [10¹⁹⁻¹¹]

Speed of gamma rays = 3 x [10⁸]

Speed of gamma rays = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

Determine the amount of work done by the applied force when a 87 N force is applied to move a 15 kg object a horizontal
elena-s [515]

Answer:

391.5 J

Explanation:

The amount of work done can be calculated using the formula:

  • W = F║d
  • where the force is parallel to the displacement

Looking at the formula, we can see that the mass of the object does not affect the work done on it.

Substitute the force applied and the displacement of the object into the equation.

  • W = (87 N)(4.5 m)
  • W = 391.5 J  

The amount of work done on the object is 391.5 J in order to move it 4.5 meters with an applied force of 87 Newtons.

What unit is used to measure the period of a wave?
mixer [17]

Answer:

D. Meters/Seconds

Explanation:

The time period of a wave is measured in seconds.

A typical wave involves both time and distance.  Consider a sound wave, which is basically a periodic modulation of the local air pressure.  We "hear" the sound because our ears respond to the variations of pressure.

The most common metric of a sound wave is frequency.  This is the rate at which the change in pressure occurs, and is measured in cycles per second, formally known as "hertz".  The period is the inverse of frequency andl has the units of seconds per cycle, commonly stated simply as seconds.

If 36 grams of water is to be heated from 24.0°C to 48°C to make a cup of tea, how much heat must be added? The specific heat of
Vinvika [58]

We will have the following:

\begin{gathered} Q=mc\Delta T\Rightarrow Q=(36)(4.18)(48-24) \\  \\ \Rightarrow Q=3611.52 \end{gathered}

So, the heat to add is 3611.52 Joules.
