Answer:

A. The photographer will get to the jeep before the rhinocerous

Explanation:

Δv =  Δd/Δt

we can rearrange for time

Δt = Δd/Δv

For the photographer:

Distance is 10m and moves at 6m/s

Δt = 10m/6m/s

Δt = 1.67s

For the rhinocerous

Distance is 16m and moves at 8m/s

Δt = 16m/8m/s

Δt = 2.00s

The distances were to get to the jeep, the photographer makes it to the jeep in a shorter amount of time than the rhino

An object of mass m travels along the parabola yequalsx squared with a constant speed of 5 ​units/sec. What is the force on the
Dmitriy789 [7]

Explanation:

The object is moving along the parabola y = x² and is at the point (√2, 2).  Because the object is changing directions, it has a centripetal acceleration towards the center of the circle of curvature.

First, we need to find the radius of curvature.  This is given by the equation:

R = [1 + (y')²]^(³/₂) / |y"|

y' = 2x and y" = 2:

R = [1 + (2x)²]^(³/₂) / |2|

R = (1 + 4x²)^(³/₂) / 2

At x = √2:

R = (1 + 4(√2)²)^(³/₂) / 2

R = (9)^(³/₂) / 2

R = 27 / 2

R = 13.5

So the centripetal force is:

F = m v² / r

F = m (5)² / 13.5

F = 1.85 m

Tom is sitting facing forward in the train as it is getting ready to leave the station. He puts a smooth ball on the train floor
Vesnalui [34]

According to Newton's first law of motion, what happens to the ball is  the ball rolls backward.

<h3>What is the first law?</h3>

This means that an object at rest or in motion will remain uniformly rectilinear and tend to be in that state if the net force on it is zero.

In this case, we have to think that the ball is at rest and the train is moving with a velocity that way, the reaction of the ball will be to go in the opposite direction to the motion.

Do you have to keep citing the same source
emmasim [6.3K]
I don't think so as long as you make it apparent that the information comes the same source. So citing over and over again is unnecessary as long as it's clear that the information is from the same website or source. If you can't make it clear that they are from the same website source, it would a safe choice to continue to cite to avoid allegations of plagiarism.

Which of the following situations could cause light to diffract?
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

B. Light passes through a small opening

Explanation:

Diffraction is one of the properties of wave defined as the bending of wave around corners. It occurs mostly when waves passes through a tiny opening or slit. The type of waveform generated by the wave depends on the type of opening or slit that the medium passes through. The opening can be tiny or large.

Based on the definition, it can be inferred that the situation that causes light waves to diffract is when the light passes through a small opening. For example, the light of a torch passing through a tiny door hole is diffraction.
