Answer:

10 km/h

Explanation:

Before calculating the average speed, we need to convert the time taken for the trip from minutes to hours. Since 1 hour cointains 60 minutes, we have:

$1 h: 60 min = t : 30 min\\t=\frac{1 h \cdot 30 min}{60 min}=0.5 h$

Karen's average speed is given by:

$v=\frac{d}{t}$

where

d = 5 km is the distance covered

t = 0.5 h is the time taken for the trip

Substituting into the equation, we find

$v=\frac{5 km}{0.5 h}=10 km/h$

Which of the following represents an upright image? <br> A. -do<br> B. +m<br> C. -m<br> D. +do

Tom [10]

Answer:

B. +m

Explanation:

The magnification of an image is defined as the ratio between the size of the image and of the object:

$m = \frac{y'}{y}$

where we have

y' = size of the image

y = size of the object

There are two possible situations:

- When m is positive, y' has same sign as y: this means that the image image is upright

- When m is negative, y' has opposite sign to y: this means that the image is upside down

Therefore, the correct option representing an upright image is

B. +m

jamal is playing with magnetic toy vehicles. He has two identical magnetic vehicles (purple and green) on different sides of a c

KengaRu [80]

Answer:

Since potential energy increases with increase in the separation distance, Jamal should move the toy car that will create the largest separation distance. The magnetic force that will act on the vehicles as he moves the cars away from each other will decrease because magnetic force is inversely proportional to the separating distance between the cars.
