B. instantaneous speed

The speedometer of a car show instantaneous speed.
Instantaneous speed is the motion rate of a car (in this example) at a particular moment or instant in time. It can be calculated by dividing a portion or a part of the total distance (of the trip) by time traveled.

As ocean waves approach shore, their velocity decreases. How does a decrease in velocity affect the frequency and wavelength of
Rashid [163]
A decrease in velocity also causes a decrease in frequency and wavelength because if we manipulate the equation: v = f × wavelength, we can see that:

f = v / wavelength

wavelength = v / f

So in both cases the velocity is on the top. If the velocity decreases by a half for example then the wavelength and frequency will both decrease by a half because the velocity is proportional to the two values.

Vector → A points due north and vector → B points due west. Both vectors have the same magnitude. Which of the following vectors
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

B - A

Explanation:

For the combination of 2 vector to due southwest, 1 vector must due south and the other vector due west. Since vector B is already due west, vector A should due south. As vector A is already due north, vector -A would due south. So the combination of B + (-A) or B - A should points southwest

7) T F If two forces of equal magnitude act on an object that is hinged at a pivot, the force acting farther from the pivot must
saul85 [17]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The torque exerted by a force is given by:

\tau=Fd sin \theta

where

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the distance between the point of application of the force and the pivot

\theta is the angle between the directions of F and d

We see that the magnitude of the torque depends on 3 factors. In this problem, we have 2 forces of equal magnitude (so, equal F). Moreover, one of the forces (let's call it force 1) acts farther from the pivot than force 2, so we have

d_1 > d_2

However, this does not mean that force 1 produces a greater torque. In fact, it also depends on the angle at which the force is applied. For instance, if the first force is applied parallel to d, then we have

\theta_1 =0\\sin \theta=0

and the torque produced by this force would be zero.

So, the statement is false.

How did u calculate the actual velocity and the theoretical velocity given the height and time?
IrinaVladis [17]

Explanation:

to find the theoretical velocity Change minutes into seconds (so that the final result would be in meters per second). 3 minutes = 3 * 60 = 180 seconds ,

Divide the distance by time: velocity = 500 / 180 = 2.77 m/s .(s=d/t) and to find the actual velocity use this formulae

h=v0*t+ 1/2 at^2
