Meters per second squared:
If you think about it, acceleration is about how fast speed changes. Speed is measured in meters per second:
So if you take that and just measure it over time, you get meters per second squared.
Answer:
Explanation:
a ) Slit separation d = .1 x 10⁻³ m
Screen distance D = 4 m
wave length of light λ = 650 x 10⁻⁹ m
Width of central fringe = λ D / d
= 
= 26 mm
b ) Distance between 1 st and 2 nd bright fringe will be equal to width of dark fringe which will also be equal to 26 mm
c ) Angular separation between the central maximum and 1 st order maximum will be equal to angular width of fringe which is equal to
λ / d
= 
= 6.5 x 10⁻³ radian.
Answer:
0.5 m/s².
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s
Final velocity (v) = 10 m/s
Time (t) = 20 s
Acceleration (a) =?
Acceleration can simply be defined as the rate of change of velocity with time. Mathematically, it is expressed as:
a = (v – u) / t
Where:
a is the acceleration.
v is the final velocity.
u is the initial velocity.
t is the time.
With the above formula, we can obtain the acceleration of the car as follow:
Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s
Final velocity (v) = 10 m/s
Time (t) = 20 s
Acceleration (a) =?
a = (v – u) / t
a = (10 – 0) / 20
a = 10/20
a = 0.5 m/s²
Therefore, the acceleration of the car is 0.5 m/s².
Answer:
an increase in gasses that absorb heat
Explanation:
Greenhouse effect refers to the gradual increase in the earth's temperature due to an increase in the concentration of certain gases in the atmosphere. These gases are called greenhouse gases and they include; water vapour, nitrogen 1 oxide, carbon IV oxide etc. Green house effect is said to occur when heat radiating outwards from the earth surface towards space is trapped close to the earth's surface due to the presence of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.
Greenhouse effect leads to increase in the temperature of the earth, melting of polar ice caps and possibly flooding due to a rise in sea levels.
Greenhouse gases act as glass in a greenhouse. They allow heat to pass through onto the earth surface but trap the heat and prevent it from being radiated outwards back to space. Thereby increasing the surface temperature of the earth.
