You walk 20 meters north, then 5 meters south. what is your displacement?

1 answer:

3 0

The answer is C. 15 meters North

Displacement is the distance and direction from the origin. If you move 20 meters North, your displacement is 20 meters North. If you move 5 meters South, you are basically moving back the way you came by 5 meters, which means you are now 15 meters North.

I hope this helped! :)

The flow of electrons through a circuit is measured in which of the following units? A. electrical pressure B. amperes C. volts

damaskus [11]

The total quantity of electrons that have flowed through a circuit is a
quantity of charge, measured in Coulombs, or in Ampere-seconds.

The rate of flow of electrons, or more accurately the rate of flow of
the charge on them, is electrical current. Its unit is the Ampere.
1 Ampere is 1 Coulomb of charge per second.

Use the graph below to answer the following question: if average acceleration is calculated using the equation, “ change in velo

sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

$a=9\ cm/s^2$

Explanation:

Average Acceleration

Acceleration is a physical magnitude defined as the change of velocity over time. When we have experimental data, we can compute it by calculating the slope of the line in velocity vs time graph.

Note: We cannot see if the time axis is numbered in increments of 1 second, and we'll assume that.

When $t_2=4\ sec$ , the graph shows a value of $v_2=36\ cm/s$

When $t_1=0\ sec$ , the object is at rest, $v_1=0$

We compute the average acceleration as

$\displaystyle a=\frac{v_2-v_1}{t_2-t_1}$

$\displaystyle a=\frac{36\ cm/s-0\ cm/s}{4\ sec-0\ sec}$

$\displaystyle a=\frac{36\ cm/s}{4\ s}$

$\boxed{a=9\ cm/s^2}$

Describe what happens to chromosomes before mitosis.

Brums [2.3K]

Explanation:

Before mitosis, the chromosomes are copied. They then coil up, and each chromosome looks like a letter X in the nucleus of the cell. The chromosomes now consist of two sister chromatids. Mitosis separates these chromatids, so that each new cell has a copy of every chromosome
