Answer: The correct answer is option(D).

Explanation:

Distance travel by car in north of east = 20 miles

In a triangle ABC

Cos\theta =\frac{BC}{AC}

Cos 30^o=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}=\frac{BC}{20}

BC=17.32

The east component of the car’s displacement to the nearest tenth of a mile 17.32 miles.

The amount of energy which is transported past a given area of the medium per unit of time is known as the ________ of the sound
Aliun [14]
The term that describes the amount of energy transported past a given area of the medium per unit time would be "intensity." In addition, the formula for computing intensity would be:

Intensity = Energy / (Time * Area)

It can be implied that the wave would be more intense when its energy transfer rate gets increased and vibration amplitudes also increases.

An object travels 7.5 m/s toward the west . Under the influence of a constant net force of 5.2 kN, it comes to rest in 3.2 s. Wh
Softa [21]

Answer:

m = 2218.67 kg

Explanation:

It is given that,

Initial velocity, u = 7.5 m/s

Final speed of an object, v = 0 (at rest)

Force, F = 5.2 kN

Time, t = 3.2 s

We need to find the mass of the object. Force acting on an object is given by :

F = ma

m is mass, a is acceleration

F=\dfrac{m(v-u)}{t}\\\\m=\dfrac{Ft}{v-u}\\\\m=\dfrac{5.2\times 10^3\times 3.2}{0-7.5}\\\\m=2218.67\ kg

So, the mass of the object is 2218.67 kg

1) The forces of molecules is how strong they are being held together. Now, we know that solid is the last one, because it's particles are held CLOSELY and VERY TIGHTLY together, which is why it has a definite shape.And last of all, a gas's particles are held freely, which is why it has no shape. So the answer would be:- gas, liquid, solid

3) The state of matter that does not have a definite shape, but has a definite volume is a liquid. So the answer is :- liquid

7) False, an endothermic reaction is when it absorbs energy, and as we know that in a chemical reaction as the following, it tends to be an exothermic reaction, meaning that is releases energy. So the answer is:- FALSE

8) Gases have particles that are far apart (freely) and move fast. So the answer is:- They are moving very fast and are far apart.<span> </span>
