Look at the title of the graph, in small print under it.
Each point is "compared to 1950-1980 baseline". So the set of data for those years is being compared to itself. No wonder it matches up pretty close !
Speed is a description of how fast an object moves; velocity is how fast and in what direction it moves. In physics, velocity is speed in a given direction. When we say a car travels at 60 km/h, we are specifying its speed.
Answer:
<em>The cyclist is traveling at 130 m/s</em>
Explanation:
<u>Constant Acceleration Motion
</u>
It's a type of motion in which the velocity of an object changes by an equal amount in every equal period of time.
Being a the constant acceleration, vo the initial speed, vf the final speed, and t the time, the following relation applies:
The cyclist initially travels at 10 /s and it's accelerating at a=6m/s^2. We need to know the new speed when t= 20 seconds have passed.
Apply the above equation:
The cyclist is traveling at 130 m/s
The height of the tower and the distance from its base form a right angle triangle. Thus,
tan(∅) = height / base
tan(28.81) = height / 1,000 m
height = 549.98 meters

Answer: Heat transfer by radiation</h2>
Explanation:
There are three ways in which the thermal transfer (heat) occurs:
1. By Conduction, when the transmission is by the <u>direct contact.</u>
2. By Convection, heat transfer<u> in fluids</u> (like water or the air, for example).
3. By <u>Radiation</u>, by the electromagnetic waves (they can travel through any medium and in vacumm or empty space)
Since outter space is vacuum (sometimes called "empty"), energy cannot be transmitted by convection, nor conduction. It must be transmitted by electromagnetic waves that are able to travel with or without a medium.
