Answer:

The average speed can be calculated as the quotient between the distance travelled and the time needed to travel that distance.

To go to the school, he travels 2.4 km in 0.6 hours, then here the average speed is:

s = (2.4km)/(0.6 hours) = 4 km/h

To return to his home, he travels 2.4km again, this time in only 0.4 hours, then here the average speed is:

s' = (2.4 km)/(0.4 hours) = 6 km/h.

Now, if we want the total average speed (of going and returning) we have that the total distance traveled is two times the distance between his home and school, and the total time is 0.6 hours plus 0.4 hours, then the average speed is:

S = (2*2.4 km)/(0.6 hours + 0.4 hours)

S = (4.8km)/(1 h) = 4.8 km/h

Explain the difference between what Isaac Newton and Louis de Broglie would have to say about the momentum of a particle that is
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

Newton would resort to the classical mechanics and say that the momentum of the particle that is moving with a constant velocity will be given by: momentum = mass x velocity

this approach will highlight the particle nature and will not be relativistic.

De-Broglie will say that the momentum of the particle is related to its associated matter wave and the relation between them is given by:

p = \frac{h}{\lambda}

where \lambda = wavelength of the matter wave associated to the particle, h = planck's constant

andp = \gamma\times mv

thus, this highlights the wave nature of the particle and is also relativistic.

How do dog whistles work?
Alchen [17]

<em>The sound it emits comes from what is known as the ultrasonic range, a pitch that is so high humans can't hear it. Dogs can hear these sounds, however, as can cats and other animals. Because of this, the dog whistle is a favored training tool, though it may not be for every dog parent.</em>
