Answer:

S = V0 t + 1/2 a t^2

S = 5 m/s * 300 s + 1/2 * 1.2 m/s * (300 s^2)

S = 1500 m + .6 * 90000 m = 55,500 m

Check:     V0 = 5 m/s

                V2 = V0 + a t  = 5 + 1.2 * 300 = 365 m/s

Vav = (V1 + V2) / 2 = (5 + 365) / 2 = 185 m/s     (note uniform motion)

S = 185 * 300 = 55,500 m

We calculated V2 above at 365 m/s  the speed after 300 sec

What two models are used to describe how light behaves
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

Light is one of nature's ways of moving energy from one place to another.

Explanation:

It has no substance, or mass. How does light travel? Light behaves like a traveling wave, something like waves in a string or on the surface of water.

Which of the following methods of soil conservation uses the roots of plants as anchors in the soil? (2 points) Adding fertilize
julsineya [31]
I believe the correct answer is the second option. Planting of trees on sloped surfaces is a method of conservation that utilizes the roots of plants. Planting trees on such areas would prevent hazards and maintain the soil formation future since the roots would hold the soil together preventing or minimizing any soil erosion.

99 POINTS!!!!
Papessa [141]
The situation given above can be answered through the concept of the First Law of thermodynamics which states that the change in internal energy is equal to the difference between the work done and the heat added to the system. The work done by the object is negative and the heat added is positive.
             change in internal energy = -500J + 1400 J = 900 J

Describe the main distinguishing features of spiral, elliptical, and irregular galaxies.
hram777 [196]

Answer:

Spiral galaxies consist of a flat, rotating disk of stars, gas and dust, and a central concentration of stars known as the bulge. These are surrounded by a much fainter halo of stars, many of which reside in globular clusters.

Elliptical galaxies have smooth, featureless light-profiles and range in shape from nearly spherical to highly flattened, and in size from hundreds of millions to over one trillion stars. In the outer regions, many stars are grouped into globular clusters. Most elliptical galaxies are composed of older, low-mass stars, with a sparse interstellar medium and minimal star formation activity They are often chaotic in appearance, with neither a nuclear bulge nor any trace of spiral arm structure. Collectively they are thought to make up about a quarter of all galaxies.

irregular galaxies were once spiral or elliptical galaxies but were deformed by gravitational action. they are shapeless.
