Answer: hMMMMmMmM

Explanation: It depends on the size and how fast the 2 objects were already going and by this answer i think the speed would have been around 140mph

The slope of a Velocity versus Time graph will tell you the object’s what?
Verizon [17]
Hope it helped you.

My name is Charlie.

Today this question is about science,or chemistry.

A. Acceleration is a correct answer. Acceleration is a rate of change in velocity. 

It change in velocity/change in time. Next, to slope will be indicated by the acceleration.

B Change in position is a incorrect answer.

C. Velocity is a incorrect answer. Velocity is a displacement of an object during a specific unit of time. It can used two measurements are needed to determine velocity. It displacement or by the time. Displacement it includes a direction, so the velocity will also includes a direction. It can used speed with direction. Velocity it can be average velocity or an instantaneous velocity.

Have a great day!

A box of paper is labeled 24lb paper. This means that 500 sheets (counted number) of paper size 17in x 22in weighs 24 pounds (Th
Tresset [83]

Answer:

The mass of a single paper  is approximately 0.047 lb/paper which in SI Units is approximately 21.77  g/paper

Explanation:

The given information on the size and the weight of paper are;

The mass of a box of 500 sheets of paper = 24 lb

The number of sheets in the paper = 500 sheets

The dimensions of the paper = 17 in. × 22 in., which is equivalent to  43.18 cm × 55.88 cm

The mass of a single paper = The mass of the box of paper/(The number of sheets of paper present in the box)

The mass of a single paper = 24 lb/500 = 0.047 lb/paper

Given that 1 lb = 453.6 g, we have;

0.047 lb/paper = 0.047 lb/paper×453.6 g/(lb) = 21.77  g/paper

The mass of a single paper  = 0.047 lb/paper = 21.77  g/paper.

The shortening of a transmitted signal's wavelength and/or an increase in its frequency, which indicates that the object is
Mrrafil [7]

Answer: The Doppler effect occurs when a source of a wave is moving relative to an observer (or the observer is moving relative to the source). In this case, the apparent frequency of the sound, as heard/seen by the observer, is shifted with respect to the original frequency of the wave.

More specifically, the relationship between the apparent frequency, f', and the original frequency, f, is given by:

where:

is the velocity of the wave

is the velocity of the observer relative to the source, and it is positive if the observer is moving towards the source, and negative if the observer is moving away from the source

is the velocity of the source relative to the observer, and it is positive if the source is moving away from the observer, and negative if the source is moving towards the observer

The doppler effect occurs in many daily-life situations: for instance, when an ambulance approaches you, you hear an increase in the apparent frequency of the siren due to the Doppler effect. Another example is the movements of distant galaxies from us: when they move away from us, the apparent frequency of the light they emit decreases, so their wavelengths appear to increase towards the red color (red-shift); on the contrary, when they are moving towards us, the apparent frequency seems to increase, so the wavelength seems to decrease towards the blue color (blue-shift).
