A jetliner has a velocity of 95 m/s. What is the displacement of the jetliner at t=3.0 seconds?
charle [14.2K]
Distance = speed / time

speed = 95 m/s
time = 3 s

distance = 95 / 3 m

displacement = 95/3 m or 32 m (2 s.f.)

What is the kinetic energy of an object that has a mass of 12 kg and moves with a velocity of 10 m/s
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

600 J

Explanation:

The formula to find the kinetic energy of an object is \frac{1}{2}mV^2

  • m = mass in kg
  • V = velocity in m/s
  • KE is measured in Joules just as all other forms of energy.

Now, let's plug in the variables we're given and simplify.

  • \frac{1}{2}(12)(10)^2
  • \frac{1}{2}(12)(100)
  • (6)(100)
  • (600)

Thus, the answer is 600 Joules.

Ozone in the upper atmosphere absorbs energy in the 210-230 nmnm range of the spectrum. In what region of the electromagnetic sp
kifflom [539]

Answer:

Ultraviolet

Explanation:

The electromagnetic spectrum is divided into a number of parts. One of which is the ultraviolet region. The ultraviolet region is found between the 100 nm - 400 nm band of the electromagnetic spectrum. From the range we just stated now, we can see for certainty that the given range 210 nm - 230 nm lies inside of the 100 nm c 400 nm of the electromagnetic spectrum, that of which is the ultraviolet region.
