Answer:

15km/hr

Explanation:

The average speed for the entire trip is the sum of the total distance traveled divided by the total time of the trip.

Total time = 4hr

distance for the first 3hrs = 50km

distance for the last 1hr = 10km

Total distance = 50km + 10km = 60km

Now;

Average speed = $\frac{total distance }{time taken}$

Insert the parameters and solve;

Average speed = $\frac{60km}{4hr}$ = 15km/hr

What will happen to the absorption and/or emission spectral lines of an object moving away from Earth at high speed?

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

c. They will be shifted toward the red end of the spectrum.

Explanation:

When the absorption or emission lines of a moving object away from from the earth at very high speed then the spectral lines will be shifted toward the red end of the spectrum.This effect can be easily understand by Doppler effect..

So the our option c is correct.

c. They will be shifted toward the red end of the spectrum.

Answer:

Same, the electric fields point in opposite directions and therefore cancel at some midpoint.

Explanation:

The Electric field net at some point between them is zero, only if they point in opposite direction (they cancel to the each other). In order the electric fields have opposite direction, at some point between the bees , the bees must have the same sign of electric charge

The cockroach Periplaneta americana can detect a static electric field of magnitude 8.50 kN/C using their long antennae. If the

erica [24]

Answer:

0.235 nC

Explanation:

Given:

$E$ = the magnitude of electric field = $8.50\ kN/C =8.50\times 10^{3}\ N/C$

$F$ = the magnitude of electric force on each antenna = $2.00\ \mu N =2.00\times 10^{-6}\ N$

$q$ = The magnitude of charge on each antenna

Since the electric field is the electric force applied on a charged body of unit charge.

$\therefore E = \dfrac{F}{q}\\\Rightarrow q =\dfrac{F}{E}\\\Rightarrow q =\dfrac{2.00\times 10^{-6}\ N}{8.50\times 10^{3}\ N/C}\\\Rightarrow q =0.235\times 10^{-9}\ C\\\Rightarrow q =0.235\ nC$

Hence, the value of q is 0.235 nC.
