Answer:
His speed, in metres per second, is approximately 10m/s. The correct option is B.
Explanation:
Speed is defined as the rate in which an object cover a distance in a given time. It is measured in meters per second ( m/s). From the question, the jogger covered a distance of 3Km which when converted to meter is 3000meters in a given time 5 minutes which is 300seconds. The calculation of his speed in meter per second is shown below:
Distance= 3Km to meters ( as 1000meters = 1Km). Therefore 3× 1000 = 3000m
Time= 5 minutes to seconds ( as 1 minute = 60 Seconds). Therefore 5× 60= 300.
Speed= distance/ time
= 3000/300
= 10m/s
Therefore his speed, in metres per second, is approximately 10.
Because it is something someone can be doing for him
Answer:
The false statement is 'Electric field lines form closed loops'.
Explanation:
- Electric field lines originate from positive end and terminates at negative end,i.e., field lines are inward in direction to the negative charges and outward from the positive charges.
- These lines when close together represents high intensity and when far apart shows low intensity of the field.
- These lines do not intersect, as the tangent drawn on these lines provides us with the field direction and intersection of these lines means two field directions which is not possible.
- These lines unlike magnetic field lines do not form closed loops as they do not turn around but originate at positive end and terminates at negative end which ensures no loop formation.
Explanation:
As the earth travels around the sun in the elliptical orbit it must also be know that the axis of the earth is tilted as well.
- So when the earth is at the farthest point and the tilt of the earth's axis is towards the sun in that case the sun rays always incident on the surface of the earth near the poles and hence there is sunlight for the 24 hours of the day. But the intensity of these rays is very low because of the their slanted angle of incident. In other words the same sun rays cover a larger area and the luminous intensity is reduced.
- When the earth is near to the sun we have an increased average temperature of the day during that phase giving us an experience of summer season and vice-versa is the condition in winter seasons. The tilt of the earths axis is responsible for variation in extremities of the seasons with respect to the geographical location.
v = x/t
v = average velocity, x = displacement, t = elapsed time
Given values:
x = 6km south, t = 60min
Plug in and solve for v:
v = 6/60
v = 0.1km/min south
