The correct answer among the choices presented above is option A. Sound waves are considered as mechanical waves because they require a medium in which they can travel through. A mechanical wave is a wave that cannot transmit energy in a vacuum. It needs something to move energy.<span />

During the time interval from 0.0 to 10.0 s, the position vector of a car on a road is given by x(t) = a + bt + ct2, with a = 17
Juli2301 [7.4K]

The car’s velocity as a function of time is b + 2ct and the car’s average velocity during this interval is 0.9 m/s.

<h3>Average velocity of the car</h3>

The average velocity of the car is calculated as follows;

x(t) = a + bt + ct2

v = dx/dt

v(t) = b + 2ct

v(0) = -10.1 m/s + 2(1.1)(0) = -10.1 m/s

v(10) = -10.1 + 2(1.1)(10) = 11.9 m/s

<h3>Average velocity</h3>

V = ¹/₂[v(0) + v(10)]

V = ¹/₂ (-10.1  + 11.9 )

V = 0.9 m/s

Thus, the car’s velocity as a function of time is b + 2ct and the car’s average velocity during this interval is 0.9 m/s.

2. Why is natural selection a mechanism for biological change?
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

Natural selection is a simple mechanism that causes populations of living things to change over time.  Organisms that are more adapted to their environment are more likely to survive and pass on the genes that aided their success.

A bus took 8 hours to travel 639 km. For the first 5 hours, it
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

93 km/h

Explanation:

Given that a bus took 8 hours to travel 639 km. For the first 5 hours, it travelled at an average speed of 72 km/h

Let the first 5 hours journey distance = F

From the formula of speed,

Speed = distance/time

Substitute speed and time

72 = F/5

F = 72 × 5 = 360 km

The remaining distance will be:

639 - 360 = 279km

The remaining time will be:

8 - 5 = 3 hours

Speed = 279/3

Speed = 93 km/h

Therefore, the average speed for the remaining time of the journey is equal to 93 km/h

DESCRIBE floods and droughts. What are their effects? EXPLAIN how they can be prevented
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

<u>EFFECTS: ( doughts)</u>

  1. There would be less water in the river for you and other people who live along the river to use.
  2. If we use too much water during times of normal rainfall, we might not have enough water when a drought happens.

<u>EFFECTS:( FLOODS)</u>

  1. The immediate impacts of flooding include loss of human life, damage to property, destruction of crops, loss of livestock, and deterioration of health conditions owing to waterborne diseases.
  2. power plants, roads and bridges are damaged and disrupted, some economic activities may come to a standstill, people are forced to leave their homes and normal life is disrupted.

How to prevent from flooding is :

  1. Construct buildings above flood levels.
  2. Tackle climate change

How to prevent from droughts :

  1. drought trends that may occur based on statistical and actual weather forecasts.
  2. In the U.S., the U.S. Drought Monitor provides a day-by-day visual of the drought conditions around the country.

* Hopefully this helps:) Mark me the brainliest:)!!!
