What does the slope of the line on this velocity versus time graph represent?

1 answer:

8 0

What do you mean when you say "this" graph ? I don't see any graph.

First of all, I'm sure you don't have a "velocity versus time" graph.
You may have a "speed versus time" graph, that doesn't show any
information about the direction of the motion.

As you look at your graph ... a feat that's impossible for me ...

-- If the line is horizontal, then speed is not changing. If the direction
of motion is also not changing, then there is zero acceleration. Sadly,
the graph most likely doesn't carry any information about the direction.
It's possible that the speed is constant but the direction is changing.
Then acceleration isn't zero, but you can't tell that from the graph.

-- If the line is proceeding upward from left to right, whether it's straight
or curving, then there is positive acceleration.

-- If the line is proceeding downward from left to right, whether it's straight
or curving, then there is negative acceleration, or what some people might
call "positive deceleration".

The convection zone is the outer most layer of the suns blank hot gases rise and then blank hear the loops form by singing cool

lora16 [44]

Answer:

Explanation:

The sun is made up of 6 parts. Namely:

The core
The radiation zone
The convection zone
The photosphere
The chromosphere and
The corona

The convection area is just above the radiation zone. As materials from the suns core are heated, they rise above the radiation zone towards the EDGE of the convection area then sinks back again into the radiative zone for more heat.

The radiative zone is 12.6 million Fahrenheit hot and is just above the core.

The core of the son is not solid but plasma whose motion is like gas. Its temperature stands at 48 million Fahrenheit

A positively charged sphere with a charge of 8Q is separated from a negatively charged sphere -2Q by a distance r. There is an a

djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

Explanation:

For the first case , the expression for electrostatic force can be given by the following .

F = K x 8Q x 2Q / r² where k is a constant .

F = K 16 Q² / r²

When they touch , some charge is neutralized . Net charge remaining

= 8Q - 2 Q = 6 Q

Charge on each sphere = 6Q/2 = 3 Q .

Force between them

F₁ = k 3Q x 3 Q / r² = k 9 Q² / r²

F₁ / F = 9 / 16

F₁ = 9 F / 16 .

An object is 30 cm in front of a converging lens with a focal length of 10 cm. Use ray tracing to determine the location of the

poizon [28]

Answer:

Inverted

Real

Explanation:

u = Object distance = 30 cm

v = Image distance

f = Focal length = 10 cm

Lens Equation

$\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{u}+\frac{1}{v}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{f}-\frac{1}{u}=\frac{1}{v}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{v}=\frac{1}{10}-\frac{1}{30}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{v}=\frac{1}{15}\\\Rightarrow v=15\ cm$

As, the image distance is positive the image is real and forms on the other side of the lens

$m=-\frac{v}{u}\\\Rightarrow m=-\frac{-15}{30}\\\Rightarrow m=-0.5$

As, the magnification is negative the image is inverted
