why do you think accurate measurement of time became possible much after accurate measurement of length and mass

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Accurate measurements of time become possible after accurate measurement of length and mass because time taken by a heavy body to move a certain distance is more,and time taken by a light body to move a certain distance is less.

What is the speed of a bobsled whose distance-time graph indicates that it traveled 121m in 30s?

Answers

Speed = (distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)

Speed = (121 m) / (30 sec)

Speed = 4.03 m/s (about 9 mph ... pretty slow for a bobsled)

14. Looking ahead: Give an example of how the Law of Conservation of Energy applies to eating your favorite meal. Give at least 2 energy transformations.(5 pts)

Answers

Answer:

The law of conservation of energy applies to eating your favorite food in that the energy contained in the food is being converted to energy usable for the body system after the final digestion(Glucose or simple sugar, amino acid, etc)

Examples of transformation of energy include

(1) Transformation from Chemical energy in battery to light energy in bulb

(2) Transformation of Electrical energy to thermal/Heat energy in electric stove.

Explanation:

The law of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created or distroy. It can only by converted from one form to another.

Physics
When attempting to increase the distance traveled by a projectile, what must occur

Answers

Energy or power has to be increased to increase the distance travelled by the projectile.

Explanation:

Projectile motion is defined as when an object is thrown or projected at a particular angle and it reaches the ground after sometime due to acceleration and gravity.

For example, throwing a ball in air. To increase the distance travelled by the object due to projectile motion, one must increase the power at which the object to set.

To increase the distance of a projectile you must increase the power behind the projectile. However you must also change the angle if you are aiming for a specific point. By increasing the power the momentum transfers to the object and the projectile gains more velocity and more distance. Also remember that energy transfers. For more distance you must have more velocity.

A wave has a wavelength of 125 meters is move a distance of 300 m in 15s. What is its frequency? please help

Answers

   Frequency of any wave  =  (speed) / (wavelength)

                                           = (300m / 15s)  /  (125m)

                                           =  (300m)  /  (15s x 125m)

                                           =      (300) / (15 x 125)    (m/s-m)

                                           =             0.16 / sec  =  0.16 Hz

Which of the following is not a way that oil production could potentially affect aquatic viability?

Answers

Since you have not presented any choices that would tell us which is NOT a way that oil production could potentially affect aquatic viability, I'll just go ahead and answer what are ways that oil could affect aquatic viability.

-Offshore drilling contaminates and disturbs habitats of aquatic creatures
-Transport of oil across seas or oceans might lead to oil spill
-Waste products from energy factories using oil still would disturb habitat

answer: c- interruption of water flow
