The speed of light Never goes to 0. A is wrong.

The speed of light in refraction does not remain constant. B is incorrect

Light does not repel. That term is reserved for something like magnetism. C is not using the correct vocabulary.

D is the right answer.

Of elements N, O, Cl, Na, and Which two would likely have similar chemical properties and why
velikii [3]
<span>Oxygen and Nitrogen would be the most similar of the elements listed, because they are the closest in the periodic table. This isn't a very good reason for anything, but the two do have some similar properties. They are both non-metals, they are both highly electronegative, they are both diatmoic gasses in their natural states, they have a similar number of valence electrons, they are both generally oxidizing agents. Oxygen and Chlorine are also quite similar, but not quite as similar as Oxygen and Nitrogen.</span>

Talia is on a road trip with some friends. In the first 2 hours, they travel 100 miles. Then they hit traffic and go only 30 mil
emmainna [20.7K]
Since Speed, V = Distance/Time
Average speed = Total Distance/Total Time

From the given data, Total Distance = 100 + 30 + 75 miles
and Total Time = 2 + 1 + 1 hours

Average Speed = 205/4
Average Speed = 51.25 mph ( or 51mph to the nearest whole number)

If an object is dropped from a height of meters, the velocity (in ) at impact is given by v= √2gh , where g=9.8m/sec^2 is the ac
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

A.) V = 14 m/s

B.) h = 36.6 m

Explanation:

Given the formula v = √2gh

where g = 9.8m/sec^2 is the acceleration due to gravity.

A.) Determine the impact velocity for an object dropped from a height of 10 m.

Substitute height h in the given formula

V = √2gh 

V = √2 × 9.8 × 10

V = √196

V = 14 m/s

b. Determine the height required for an object to have an impact velocity of 26.8 m/sec (~ 60 mph). Round to the nearest tenth of a meter.

Substitute the velocity in the given formula and make height h the subject of formula.

26.8 = √2 × 9.8 × h

Square both sides

718.24 = 19.6h

h = 718.24 / 19.6

h = 36.64 m

h = 36.6 m

An alligator swims to the left with a constant velocity of 5 \,\dfrac{\text{m}}{\text s}5
dexar [7]

Answer:

The alligator will take t = 10 s to reach the final speed of 35 m/s

Explanation:

As we know that the initial speed of the alligator is 5 m/s

then it accelerate by given acceleration to reach the final speed of 35 m/s

so we will have

v_i = 5 m/s

v_f = 35 m/s

a = 3m/s^2

now we have

v_f = v_i + at

35 = 5 + 3 t

t = 10 s

When placed in a ________ solution, a cell will exhibit a net loss of water. the specific process by which the water leaves the
katen-ka-za [31]

The specific process by which the water leaves the cell is called <u>plasmolysis.</u>

<h3>What is plasmolysis?</h3>

Plasmolysis is the process in which the cell loses the water that is present inside it because the environment of the cells produces pressure to build up inside the cell. If a cell is present in a hypertonic solution means that solvent concentration is lower in the surrounding solution, then water comes out of the cell while on the other hand, if a cell is present in a hypotonic solution in which the solvent concentration is higher in the surrounding solution, then water goes inside of the cell. The movement of liquid inside or outside of the cell occurs due to the semi-permeable membrane of the cell.

So we can conclude that the specific process by which the water leaves the cell is called <u>plasmolysis.</u>
