Foraging bees often move in straight lines away from and toward their hives. Suppose a bee starts at its hive and flies 500 m du

e east, then flies 440 m west, then 690 m east. How far is the bee from the hive?

The bee is 750 m due east from its hive.

<h3>Displacement of the bee from its hive</h3>

The displacement of an object is the change in the position of an object.

net displacement in eastward direction = 500 m east + 690 m east = 1190 m east

net displacement in westward direction = 440 m west

<h3>Total displacement of the bee from its hive</h3>

Displacement = 1190 m east - 440 m west = 750 m east

Thus, the bee is 750 m due east from its hive.

maxonik [38]
It will land in your lap because there's different frames of motion relative to yourself. For example, if you're running at a speed of 6 mph, it doesn't mean you'll run as fast as the Earth spins. Also, since you're on the interior of the plane, any kind of wind or weather on the outside will not affect the coin. A law to back up this claim is Einsteins Special Law of Relativity.

A bicycle traveled 150 meters west from point A to point B. Then it took the same route and came back to point A. It took a tota
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer

D. The average speed is 2.5 meters/second, and the average velocity is 0 meters/second.

The difference between speed and velocity is that, speed is a scalar quantity while velocity is a vector quantity.

Average speed = total distance/Total time

                          = (150 + 150) / (2×60)

                          = 300/120

                           = 2.5 m/s

Average velocity = Total displacement/ Total time

                             = (150 + -150) / (2 × 60)

                            = 0/120

                            = 0 m/s

In order from lowest urgency to highest, which sequence properly ranks the product categories issued by the National Weather Ser
matrenka [14]

<u>Answer:</u>

In order from lowest urgency to highest, the sequence which properly ranks the product categories issued by the National Weather Service are as follows:

B- Outlook, Watch, Advisory, Warning.

<u>Explanation:</u>

An outlook for a hazardous weather describes the potential hazardous weather of concern in day 1 through 7. There are total two segments of the outlook, one for the marine zones and the second for the land based zones.  

A watch is issued when there is the possibility of hazardous weather within 48 hours, it does not guarantee that a hazardous weather is going to come, it just reminds the possibilities of any such weather to come.

Advisory comes third in the urgency ranking, we can explain this through an example: a winter weather advisory may be issued for amount of freezing rain or when there are chance of 2 to 4 inches of snow. And, in winter weather, an warning may be issued when there is one fourth inch or more of ice accumulation.

Because electricity and magnetism are so closely related, factors that affect one often affect the other.
xenn [34]

Answer:

The interactions of electricity and magnetism are difficult to explain in nontechnical terms.  This is primarily because one has to describe the interactions in terms of invisible "force fields" which shift, expand, contract, strengthen, weaken, and rotate in space, and these are very difficult to describe adequately in verbal terms.  In mathematical terms, coupled sets of three-dimensional vector differential equations are required, and these are also quite difficult to visualize.

A wire of resistance R is cut into ten equal parts which are then connected in parallel. The equivalent resistance of the combin
Greeley [361]

Answer:

<em>The equivalent resistance of the combination is R/100</em>

Explanation:

<u>Electric Resistance</u>

The electric resistance of a wire is directly proportional to its length. If a wire of resistance R is cut into 10 equal parts, then each part has a resistance of R/10.

Parallel connection of resistances: If R1, R2, R3,...., Rn are connected in parallel, the equivalent resistance is calculated as follows:

\displaystyle \frac{1}{R_e}=\frac{1}{R_1}+\frac{1}{R_2}+\frac{1}{R_3}+...+\frac{1}{R_n}

If we have 10 wires of resistance R/10 each and connect them in parallel, the equivalent resistance is:

\displaystyle \frac{1}{R_e}=\frac{1}{R/10}+\frac{1}{R/10}+\frac{1}{R/10}...+\frac{1}{R/10}

This sum is repeated 10 times. Operating each term:

\displaystyle \frac{1}{R_e}=\frac{10}{R}+\frac{10}{R}+\frac{10}{R}+...+\frac{10}{R}

All the terms have the same denominator, thus:

\displaystyle \frac{1}{R_e}=10\frac{10}{R}=\frac{100}{R}

Taking the reciprocals:

R_e=R/100

The equivalent resistance of the combination is R/100
