In a 4*100m relay race,tota track length is 200m and time taken by one particular group is 50.2sec. ehat is the average speed and average velocity of that group?plzzzz help mee

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: This is tricky, and the question could probably be written more clearly.

A " 4 x 100 m " race means that four runners each run 100 meters, for
a total of 400 meters ... very close to a quarter mile.

On a 200-meter track, each runner does halfway around the track, and
the whole team of four runners does twice around the track. 

This team did the whole thing in 50.2 seconds. The average time for each runner
was 50.2/4 = 12.55 seconds.

Velocity is a speed and a direction.  We have the speed, leaving only the puzzle of
what to do about the 'average' direction.

Here's a sneaky but easy way to dispense with the whole issue:
Define the average velocity (vector) as  (total displacement vector)/(total time).

Since the fourth runner finished in exactly the same spot as the first runner
began, the total displacement is zero, and therefore so is the average velocity.

A rotating satellite has the same angular velocity as the earth. If the satellite is 5x10^7 m from the center of the earth, what is its tangential velocity

Answers

We will want to be using radians for this question so that we can calculate arc lengths easily.

The angular velocity of the earth is 360^(o)/24\ hr=(2\pi)/(24\ hr)=(\pi)/(12)/hr

The satellite tangential velocity is the distance from the earth times the angular velocity, which is
5*10^(7)\ m*(\pi)/(12)/hr\approx1.309*10^(7)\ m/hr

For meters per second, we divide by the number of seconds in an hour, which is 3600:
1.309*10^(7)\ m/hr*(1\ hr)/(3600\ s)\approx3636\ m/s

Final answer:

The tangential velocity of a satellite, with the same angular velocity as the Earth and 5x10^7 m distance from Earth's center, is calculated to be approximately 3650 m/s.

Explanation:

The tangential velocity of a satellite is given by the formula v = rω, where 'v' is the tangential velocity, 'r' is the radius (distance from the center of the Earth to the satellite), and 'ω' is the angular velocity. The referenced satellite's angular velocity is the same as that of the Earth, which is approximately 7.292 x 10^-5 rad/s. Given r = 5x10^7 m (the satellite's distance from Earth), we input these values into the formula:

v = (5x10^7 m)(7.292 x 10^-5 rad/s)

Upon calculation, we find that the satellite's tangential velocity is approximately 3650 m/s.

Which statement BEST describes why warm ocean currents are usually surface currents? A) Warm water is less dense than cold water.
B) Ocean tides bring warm water to the surface.
C) Warm water contains more salt than cold water.
D) Ocean water loses heat to the air at the surface.

Answers

I think it is B because it seems like the most valid choice.

Answer:

The answer is A because the less dense the water is the more closer to the surface it will be and when heated by the sun, it increases the temperature of surface currents.

Explanation:

I took the test, hope this helped!

I think it's 'C' but I won't know for sure until you let me see the diagram.

When going from an optically less dense medium to a more optically dense medium (such as air to water), how does the angle of incidence compare with the angle of refraction? Does the light bend towards or away from the normal? What about from a more-dense medium to a less-dense medium (water to air)?

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

  • When light goes from an optically rarer medium to an optically more dense medium, the bending of light takes place towards the normal.
  • In case, the light travels from air, i.e., less dense to water, i.e., optically more dense, then in accordance to Snell's law, the medium with the lower refractive index will have the larger angle whereas the medium with higher refractive index will have smaller angle.
  • Also, as light travels from a an optically less dense to optically more dense medium, speed of light reduces and hence its wavelength while the frequency remains intact.
  • Converse is true when light travels from an optically more denser to optically less dense medium, the light bends away from the normal, like in case of water to air, where water is comparatively more dense

Which types of electromagnetic wave travels through space the fastest?

Answers

Answer:

The electromagnetic wave that travels the fastest through space is gamma ray

Explanation:

Electromagnetic wave is a type of wave which does not require material medium for its propagation. Examples of electromagnetic waves according to increasing frequency of the waves are gamma ray, x-ray, ultra violet ray, infra red, visible light, micro wave and radio waves.

Frequency of a wave is inversely proportional to period of oscillation of the wave. The higher the frequency of a wave, the shorter the period of oscillation.  Gamma ray has the highest wave frequency in electromagnetic spectrum and shorter period of oscillation, thereby causing it to have the highest penetration power.
