Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 3 m/s²

t = 4 s

Find: Δx and v

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δx = (0 m/s) (4 s) + ½ (3 m/s²) (4 s)²

Δx = 24 m

v = at + v₀

v = (3 m/s²) (4 s) + 0 m/s

v = 12 m/s

Answer:

4000 km

Explanation:

as we know velocity of electromagnetic wave is c

$c = 3 * 10^8 m/s$

frequency given (f) = 76 Hz

wavelength ?

using

$c =f$ λ

λ = $\frac{c}{f}$

λ = $\frac{3 * 10^8}{76}$ ≈4000 km

so final answer λ = 4000km

Two cars having different weights are traveling on a level surface at different constant velocities. Within the same time interv

GuDViN [60]

I think you're saying that once you start pushing on the cars, you want to be able to stop each one in the same time.

This is sneaky. At first, I thought it must be both 'c' and 'd'. But it's not
kinetic energy, for reasons I'm not ambitious enough to go into.
(And besides, there's no great honor awarded around here for explaining
why any given choice is NOT the answer.)

The answer is momentum.

Momentum is (mass x speed). Change in momentum is (force x time).

No matter the weight (mass) or speed of the car, the one with the greater
momentum is always the one that will require the greater (force x time)
to stop it. If the time is the same for any car, then more momentum
will always require more force.

A circular radar antenna on a Coast Guard ship has a diameter of 2.10 m and radiates at a frequency of 16.0 GHz. Two small boats

Anna35 [415]

Answer:

d = 76.5 m

Explanation:

To find the distance at which the boats will be detected as two objects, we need to use the following equation:

$\theta = \frac{1.22 \lambda}{D} = \frac{d}{L}$
