Answer:

Average speed = 53.33 km/h

Explanation:

Below is the calculation for the average speed:

Given the average speed of for first 40 km = 80km/h

Time taken to cover the first 40 km = Total Distance / average speed

Time taken to cover the first 40 km = 40 / 80 = 0.5 hours

Given the average speed of for next 40 km = 40km/h

Time taken to cover the next 40 km = Total Distance / average speed

Time taken to cover the next 40 km = 40 / 40 = 1 hours

Now the average speed of the tuck to cover total distance:

Average speed = Total distance / Total time

Average speed = (40 + 40) / (0.5 + 1)

Average speed = 53.33 km/h

Determine if the data are qualitative, quantitative, or neither. Zinc is a silver-gray metal. Chlorine has a density of 3.2 g/L.
AysviL [449]

Qualitative data gives the information of quality which can not be measured in numbers. For example: Color of eyes, softness of skin.

Quantitative data is information of quantity that can be represented in numbers. For example length and mass of any object.

Zinc is a silver-gray metal is a qualitative data, here silver gray color is quality of zinc metal which can not be measured in numbers.

Chlorine has a density of 3.2 g/L is a quantitative data. The value of density can be compared with other elements by comparing the numbers.

Gallium is not found in nature is neither qualitative nor quantitative.

Nitrogen has a melting point of –210.00 °C is a quantitative data because this is expressed in numbers.

Aluminum is a solid is a qualitative data because it tells about the state of element which can not be measured in numbers.

Fill in the blank. Consider the inverse square law: When light leaves a light bulb, it spreads out over more and more space as i
aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

Intensity of light is inversely proportional to distance from source

I ∝ 1 /r²  where I is intensity and r is distance from source . If I₁ and I₂ be intensity at distance r₁ and r₂ .

I₁ /I₂ = r₂² /r₁²

If r₂ = 4r₁ ( given )

I₁ / I₂ = (4r₁ )² / r₁²

= 16 r₁² / r₁²

I₁ / I₂ = 16

I₂ = I₁ / 16

So intensity will become 16 times less bright .

"16 times " is the answer .

Calculate the wave length of a water wave with a speed of 20 m/s and a frequency of 2.5 Hz
12345 [234]

Wavelength of the water wave is 8 m

Explanation:

  • Wavelength measures the distance between two successive crests or troughs of the wave. It is given by the following equation

λ = v/f, where f is the frequency, v is the velocity of the wave

Here, v = 20 m/s and f = 2.5 Hz

⇒ λ = 20/2.5

      = 8 m
