Does a sled have inertia while sitting still
madam [21]

Answer:

Yes, a sled has inertia while sitting still.

Explanation:

From Newton's law of inertia, an object at rest will remain at rest unless it is acted upon by an external force. The reason the object will remain at rest unless an external force acts is because of inertia. Inertia means the resistance of an object to motion.

Thus, a sled hammer at rest will remain at rest unless it is acted upon by an external force. So we can conclude that it has Inertia.

Coherent microwaves of wavelength 5.00 cm enter a tall, narrow window in a building otherwise essentially opaque to the microwav
zzz [600]
The solution for this problem is:

For 1st minimum, let m be equal to 1. 

d = slit width

D = screen distance. 

Θ = arcsin (m * lambda/ (d))


= 0.13934 rad, 7.9836 deg 

y = D*tan (Θ)

y = 6.50 * tan (7.9836)

= 0.91161 m is the distance from the central maximum to the first-order minimum

A bus travels north on some busy city streets for 2.5 km, and a trip
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

V = 4.63 m/s

V = 11.31 m/s

Explanation:

Given,

The distance traveled by the bus, towards north, d = 2.5 km

                                                                                     = 2500 m

The time taken by the trip is, t = 9 min

                                                  = 540 s

The velocity of the bus,

                                       V = d / t

                                           = 2500 / 540

                                          = 4.63 m/s

At another  point, the bus travels at a constant speed of v = 18 m/s

Therefore the velocity becomes

                                                V = (4.63 + 18)/2

                                                   = 11.31 m/s

Hence, the velocity of the  bus, V = 11.31 m/s
