Answer: B
Explanation: The density of a material affects the speed that a wave will be transmitted through it. In general, the denser the transparent material, the more slowly light travels through it. Glass is denser than air, so a light ray passing from air into glass slows down.
Explanation:
F=(Gmm)/(r^2)
larger the mass stronger the force. An object with a large mass will produce a large force. A small mass will produce a small force.
Answer:
The weight of the air above is smaller
Explanation:
As altitude increases, the amount of gas molecules in the air decreases. The air becomes less dense than air nearer to sea level. This is what people mean by “thin air”. Thin air exerts less pressure than air at a lower altitude.
Answer: The correct answer is "the same as the sum".
Explanation:
The expression for the equivalent resistance in the series combination of the circuit is as follows;
Here, R' is the equivalent resistance, are the resistances.
The expression for the equivalent resistance in the parallel combination of the circuit is as follows;
Here, R' is the equivalent resistance, are the resistances.
In the series combination of the circuit, the equivalent resistance is more than the equivalent resistance in the parallel combination of the circuit.
In the series combination of the circuit, the same amount of current flows across the resistance but the voltage is different across the resistances.
Therefore, for resistor in series, the equivalent resistance is the same as the sum.
Answer:
The distance traveled by the faster car when it is 15 mins ahead of the slower car is 165 miles.
Explanation:
Given;
speed of the faster car, v₁ = 60 mi/h
speed of the slower car, v₂ = 55 mi/h
Let the distance traveled by the faster car when it is 15 mins ahead of the slower car = x miles
Note: divide 15 mins by 60 to convert to hours for consistency in the units.
Therefore, the distance traveled by the faster car when it is 15 mins ahead of the slower car is 165 miles.
