Originally there must been

1,4775E6 + 2.25E4 = 147.75E4 + 2.25E4 = 150E4 present at start

% = 2.25 / 150 = 1.5 %      of 235 U left

Displacement vectors of 4km north, 2km south, 5km north, 5km south combine to a total displacement of
goldfiish [28.3K]

<u>Answer</u>

The combined displacement is 2km north


<u>Explanation</u>


Since displacement is a vector quantity, we take into account the direction.


Good for us all the displacement vectors are in the same dimension, so we can make north positive and south negative or vice-versa.


We now add to obtain,

4+-2+5+-5

This will simplify to

=4-2+5-5=2

Therefore the combined displacement is 2km north

What likely happens to the hart rate as the cardiac mucle gets stronger
Kaylis [27]
The heart rate will likely decrease. As the cardiac muscle, or heart, gets stronger, it takes less effort to pump more blood. As a result, the heart will probably beat less, decreasing the heart rate. This is why athletes often have lower heart rates than the average person.

20 miles per hour north is an example of ______
timofeeve [1]
B. It's an example of velocity due to the fact that it has a measurement of speed, divided by time, and has a specific direction. Acceleration doesn't have any direction on it, but has speed divided by time. C and D have a different mode of measurement despite of the fact that it still needs meters/miles/km.
