Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Global Positioning Systems (GPS) is a system which uses a network of satellites to construct maps. So, that it would be easy to trace location of a person, or to reach over a certain place.
It helps an individual by showing the route of destination wherever he/she wants to reach along with the total time to reach over the place.
Thus, GPS can determine the elevation of a given area and also it can determine latitude and longitude of a given area. As each GPS satellite broadcasts with a high power, narrow bandwidth, down link signal which can be received by our small hand held receiver antenna called mobile phone.
A GPS cannot determine the composition of soil on mountain ranges.
Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options, GPS can determine the composition of soil on mountain ranges is not true about the Global Positioning Systems (GPS).
Answer:
you want to know newtons first law here.
Explanation:
An object that is at rest stays at rest or stays in motion.
When solar radiation reaches the Earth it quickly dissipates as most of the radiation and UV rays are blocked by ozone layer, but more radiation and UV rays are able to get through because of global warming.
Answer: 1175 J
Explanation:
Hooke's Law states that "the strain in a solid is proportional to the applied stress within the elastic limit of that solid."
Given
Spring constant, k = 102 N/m
Extension of the hose, x = 4.8 m
from the question, x(f) = 0 and x(i) = maximum elongation = 4.8 m
Work done =
W = 1/2 k [x(i)² - x(f)²]
Since x(f) = 0, then
W = 1/2 k x(i)²
W = 1/2 * 102 * 4.8²
W = 1/2 * 102 * 23.04
W = 1/2 * 2350.08
W = 1175.04
W = 1175 J
Therefore, the hose does a work of exactly 1175 J on the balloon
