Total displacement=150-65m=85m
Time=5s

$\\ \rm\longrightarrow Avg\:Velocity=\dfrac{Total\:Displacement}{Total\:Time}$

$\\ \rm\longrightarrow Avg\:Velocity=\dfrac{85}{5}$

$\\ \rm\longrightarrow Avg\:Velocity= 17m/s$

Answer:

$displacement = 150 - 65 = 85m \: \\ time = 5sec \\ velocity = displacement/ time= \frac{85}{5} = 17 \frac{m}{s} \: south\\ thank \: you$

lbvjy [14]

At 20 seconds it will be 12.6 because at 10 seconds it was as at approximately 6.3 so we times it by 2 to get the 20s

A person yells across a canyon and hears an echo 2.5 seconds later. The air temperature is 21°C. How far away is the canyon wall

Alchen [17]

Answer: The canyon wall is 850 m away from the person

Explanation:

Well, the speed of sound $V$ in air at $21 \° C$ is defined as $343.60 m/s$ , this can be calculated by the following equation:

$V=\sqrt{\frac{\gamma R T}{M}}$ (1)

Where:

$\gamma=1.4$ is the Heat capacity ratio for air

$R=8.314 J/mol.K$ is the Universal Gas constant

$T=21 \° C+273.15=294.15 K$ is the temperature in Kelvin

$M=0.029 kg/mol$ is the air molar mass

$V=\sqrt{\frac{(1.4)(8.314 J/mol.K)(294.15 K)}{0.029 kg/mol}}$

$V=343.60 m/s$ (2)

Now that we know the speed of sound, we can use the following equation to find the distance between the person and the canyon wall:

$V=\frac{d}{t}$ (3)

Where:

$d$ is the distance between the person and the canyon wall

$t=2.5 s$ is the time it takes to the sound wave to travel from the person and then go back

Isolating $d$ :

$d=V.t$ (4)

$d=(343.60 m/s)(2.5 s)$ (5)

Finally:

$d=850 m$

In Anchorage, collisions of a vehicle with a moose are so common that they are referred to with the abbreviationMVC. Suppose a 1

lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

Part a)

$f = \frac{8}{9}$

Part b)

$f = \frac{120}{169}$

Part c)

So from above discussion we have the result that energy loss will be more if the collision occurs with animal with more mass

Explanation:

Part a)

Let say the collision between Moose and the car is elastic collision

So here we can use momentum conservation

$m_1v_{1i} = m_1v_{1f} + m_2v_{2f}$

$1000 v_o = 1000 v_{1f} + 500 v_{2f}$

also by elastic collision condition we know that

$v_{2f} - v_{1f} = v_o$

now we have

$2v_o = 2v_{1f} + v_o + v_{1f}$

now we have

$v_{1f} = \frac{v_o}{3}$

Now loss in kinetic energy of the car is given as

$\Delta K = \frac{1}{2}m(v_o^2 - v_{1f}^2)$

$\Delta K = \frac{1}{2}m(v_o^2 - \frac{v_o^2}{9})$

so fractional loss in energy is given as

$f = \frac{\Delta K}{K}$

$f = \frac{\frac{4}{9}mv_o^2}{\frac{1}{2}mv_o^2}$

$f = \frac{8}{9}$

Part b)

Let say the collision between Camel and the car is elastic collision

So here we can use momentum conservation

$m_1v_{1i} = m_1v_{1f} + m_2v_{2f}$

$1000 v_o = 1000 v_{1f} + 300 v_{2f}$

also by elastic collision condition we know that

$v_{2f} - v_{1f} = v_o$

now we have

$10v_o = 10v_{1f} + 3(v_o + v_{1f})$

now we have

$v_{1f} = \frac{7v_o}{13}$

Now loss in kinetic energy of the car is given as

$\Delta K = \frac{1}{2}m(v_o^2 - v_{1f}^2)$

$\Delta K = \frac{1}{2}m(v_o^2 - \frac{49v_o^2}{169})$

so fractional loss in energy is given as

$f = \frac{\Delta K}{K}$

$f = \frac{\frac{60}{169}mv_o^2}{\frac{1}{2}mv_o^2}$

$f = \frac{120}{169}$

Part c)

So from above discussion we have the result that energy loss will be more if the collision occurs with animal with more mass

The wearing down of rocks over time

RoseWind [281]

Weathering is the breaking down of rocks in a process. Deforestation is the removing of land, trees, forests for a non-forest use. Circulation is a movement that's in a cycle. Calcium carbonate is a supplement when the body lacks calcium.
Your correct answer is C.) Weathering
I hope this helps!
