Answer: 10m/s

Explanation: Since a single vector with length of 1cm expresses 5m/s, the vector which has a length doubled from the original vector should have the speed which is also doubled.

Calculate the frequency (v) in Hertz (Hz) of a wave that has a wavelength of 4.71 meters.
MissTica

Answer:

6.37 x 10⁷Hz

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Wavelength = 4.71m

Unknown:

Frequency  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use the expression below:

           V = F∧  

V is the velocity  = 3 x 10⁸m/s

F is the frequency

∧ is the wavelength

  3 x 10⁸  = F x 4.71

      F  = 63694267.52Hz = 6.37 x 10⁷Hz

Imagine that you are driving up a mountain on a very curvy road at night when the air is very still and not moving. The air temp
timama [110]

Answer:

Diathermy and atmospheric pressure

Explanation:

When the energy from the Sun comes to the Earth, it hits first the atmosphere, but the air contained is almost unaffected by it because the molecules are not tight enough to absorb its incoming energy.

Later on, the sunlight reaches the soil, thus absorbing part of the energy and reflecting the rest. Because of this reflection, the air near to the ground begins to heat through convection and as it gains height the air pressure (thus the air molecules begin to separate more from each other) decreases and the energy transfer to them is more difficult. As a result, as you gain height, the air temperature decreases at a rate of 6.8 ºC every 1,000 meters.

Two train 75 km apart approach each other on parallel tracks, each moving at
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

The correct solution is "37.5 km".

Explanation:

Given:

Distance between the trains,  

d = 75 km

Speed of each train,

= 15 km/h

The relative speed will be:

= 15 + (-15)

= 30 \ km/h

The speed of the bird,

V = 15 km/h

Now,

The time taken to meet will be:

t=\frac{Distance}{Relative \ speed}

  =\frac{75}{30}

  =2.5 \ h

hence,

The distance travelled by the bird in 2.5 h will be:

⇒ D = V t

        =15\times 2.5

        =37.5 \ km

A car traveling along the highway needs a certain amount of force exerted on it to stop it in a  certain distance.

More stopping force is required when the car has  more mass, or more momentum, or less stopping distance.  <em>(D)</em>
