A snowmobile on a frozen pond is moving at 15.0 m/s when the driver decides to pass a slow-moving sled. If the driver accelerates to a speed of 19.5 m/s in a time of 4.00
seconds then what was the acceleration?

Based on the concept of the wave-like nature of light, huygens' theory of light postulates that the more light was "bent" by a substance the slower it would move while traversing across that substance. a) deflection b) interference c) refraction d) resonance

The speed of light can be used to measure the

Consider a 1000 w iron whose base plate is made of 0.5 cm thick aluminum alloy 2024-t6 (ρ = 2770 kg/m3 and cp = 875 j/kg°c). the base plate has a surface area of 0.03 m2. initially, the iron is in thermal equilibrium with the ambient air at 22°c. assuming 90% of the heat generated in the resistance wires is transferred to the plate, determine the minimum time needed for the plate temperature to reach 200°c.
