You can use conservation of momentum, Ramon has a momentum of m * v = 59.0 * 1.20 = 70.8. James must have that same momentum so m * v = p -->
p / m = v --> 70.8 / 85.0 = 0.83 m/s for James

Match each example with the appropriate stage of technological design. drag each arrow to its correct match.
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

Review each answer in the explanation part

Explanation:

Identify a problem or need = Aerospace engineers need a lightweight material to build a jet

Note: Identify a problem is related always with a need.

After identify the problem the next stage is the design

Design a solution = Engineers determine what features the material must have.

Note: The design process implies the choice of the materials and the proper numeric calculations.

Implement the solution = Engineers test a carbon - plastic compound in a wind tunnel.

Note: after the design, the following process is the built of the equipment and the different tests.

Evaluate the solution = The carbon-plastic compound is redesigned to save maximun energy.

Note: After testing, you enter a part of re-design that means making improvements to the already constructed.

At a department store, you adjust the mirrors in the dressing room so that they are parallel and 6.2 ft apart. You stand 1.8 ft
barxatty [35]

Answer:

<em>a) 3.6 ft</em>

<em>b) 12.4 ft</em>

Explanation:

Distance between mirrors = 6.2 ft

difference from from the mirror you face = 1.8 ft

a) you stand 1.8 ft in front of the mirror you face.

According to plane mirror rules, the image formed is the same distance inside the mirror surface as the distance of the object (you) from the mirror surface. From this,

your distance from your first "front" image = 1.8 ft + 1.8 ft = <em>3.6 ft</em>

b) The mirror behind you is 6.2 - 1.8 = 4.4 ft behind you.

the back mirror will be reflected 3.6 + 4.4 = 8 ft into the front mirror,

the first image of your back will be 4.4 ft into the back mirror,

therefore your distance from your first "back" image = 8 + 4.4 = <em>12.4 ft</em>

A wave is traveling through a medium. As it travels, it displaces particles of matter in the same direction as the wave is trave
Alexxandr [17]

<u>Answer</u>

longitudinal wave because the particles move parallel to the direction that the wave is traveling.


<u>Explanation</u>

There are 2 types of a wave, electromagnetic and mechanical wave. These waves can also be categorized into two, longitudinal ans transverse waves.

longitudinal wave is a wave whose particles vibration is in the direction of wave travel.

Transverse wave is a wave whose vibration of particles is perpendicular to the direction of wave travel.
