<u>Given</u><u>:</u>

  • initial velocity, u = 200 m/s

  • Final velocity, v = 300 m/s

  • Time taken, t = 20 sec

<u>To</u><u> </u><u>be</u><u> </u><u>calculated</u><u>:</u>

Calculate the acceleration of given object ?

<u>Formula</u><u> </u><u>used</u><u>:</u>

Acceleration = v - u / t

<u>Solution</u><u>:</u>

We know that,

Acceleration = v - u / t

☆ Substituting the values in the above formula,we get

Acceleration ⇒ 300 - 200 / 20

⇒ 100/20

⇒ 5 m/s²

A scientist observes rock masses that have moved past each other in opposite horizontal directions. Which feature
Reil [10]

Answer:

C. strike-slip fault

Explanation:

The scientist must have observed a strike- slip fault.

A fault is an evidence of brittle deformation of the crust in the presence of applied stress on earth materials. Here, the earth material is the rock subjected to tension.

Where a fault occurs, there must have been movement between two blocks of rocks. The direction of movement helps us to delineate the fault type.

  • When two blocks moves past each other horizontally, it is a strike-slip fault like rubbing your palms together.
  • When a block moves in the direction of the dip, it forms a dip-slip fault which results in a fault-block mountain characterized by graben and horst systems.

Option A, Plateau is a table landform usually a mountain with flat peak.

Option B is a bowl shaped stratigraphic pattern in which the youngest sequence is at the core of the strata or a fold.

So, the most fitting option is C, a strike-slip fault.

5.0 Points The blue color of the sky is the result of
mina [271]

The blue color of the sky is the result of scattering. The answer is letter B. it is specifically called the Rayleigh scattering. This blue color is the result of the incoming rays of the Sun into the earth’s atmosphere. It has he lowest wavelength which as we all see is the blue spectrum of light.

During which two time intervals does the particle undergo equal displacement?
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

BC and DE

Explanation:

In the given figure, the velocity time graph is shown. We know that the area under v-t curve gives the displacement of the particle.

Area under AB, d_1=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 2\times 10=10\ m

Area under BC, d_2=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 2\times 4=4\ m

Area under CD, d_3=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 2\times 7=7\ m

Area under DE, d_4=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 2\times 4=4\ m

Area under EF, d_5=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 2\times 3=3\ m

So, form above calculations it is clear that, during BC and DE undergo equal displacement. Hence, the correct option is (c) "BC and DE = 4 meters".

You throw a basketball and a tennis ball across the classroom so that each ball has the exact same momentum. Explain how this is
Helga [31]

Answer:

It is possible by increasing the speed of the tennis ball by a factor of (Mass of the tennis ball)/(Mass of the basketball)

Explanation:

The momentum of a body = The bod's mass × The body's velocity

Therefore, the momentum of a given mass of an object, such as a tennis ball can be increased by increasing the velocity or speed of the object. Whereby the speed of the ball, v₁, is increased such that the momentum of the basketball and the tennis ball will be the same, is given by the following equation

Mass of the basketball × v₂ = Mass of the tennis ball × v₁

Therefore, v₁/v₂ = (Mass of the tennis ball)/(Mass of the basketball)

A 25-kg child sits at the top of a 4-meter slide. After sliding down, the child is traveling at 5 m/s. How much PE does he start
Semmy [17]

Daniddmelo says it right there, don't know why he got reported.

The potential energy (PE) is mass x height x gravity. So it would be 25 kg x 4  m x 9.8 = 980 joules. The child starts out with 980 joules of potential energy. The kinetic energy (KE) is (1/2) x mass x velocity squared. KE = (1/2) x 25 kg x 5 m/s2 = 312.5 joules. So he ends with 312.5 joules of kinetic energy. The Energy lost to friction =  PE - KE. 980- 312.5 = 667.5 joules of energy lost to friction.

Please don't just copy and paste, and thank you Dan cause you practically did it I just... elaborated more? I dunno.
