Physics

The correct option is A.
In physics, inertia has to do with Newton's first law of motion which states that an object will continue in its state of rest or in motion unless it is acted upon by a force. Thus, inertia refers to the tendency of an object to continue its motion in a straight line at constant velocity. In the question given above, the car that its brake failed would have continue moving indefinitely if it did not crash into another car, that is, it will continue in its state of motion.

In which part of the ear is the sound wave converted into an electrical impulse?
user100 [1]
The Cochlea is filled with a fluid that moves in response to the vibrations from the oval window. As the fluid moves, 25,000 nerve endings are set into motion. These nerve endings transform the vibrations into electrical impulses that then travel along the eighth cranial nerve (auditory nerve) to the brain.

Veronika [31]

Answer:

s=5.79\ km

\theta=47^{\circ} east of south

Explanation:

Given:

  • distance of the person form the initial position, d'=8.4\ km
  • direction of the person from the initial position, 47^{\circ} north of east
  • distance supposed to travel form the initial position, d=5.3\ km
  • direction supposed to travel from the initial position, due North

<u>Now refer the schematic for visualization of situation:</u>

y=d'.\sin47^{\circ}-d

y=8.4\times \sin47-5.3 ...............(1)

x=d'.\cos47^{\circ}

x=8.4\times \cos47^{\circ} .................(2)

<u>Now the direction of the desired position with respect to south:</u>

\tan\theta=\frac{y}{x}

\tan\theta=\frac{8.4\times \sin47}{8.4\times \cos47}

\theta=47^{\circ} east of south

<u>Now the distance from the current position to the desired position:</u>

s=\sqrt{x^2+y^2}

s=\sqrt{(8.4\times \cos47)^2+(8.4\times \sin47-5.3)^2}

s=5.79\ km

Group 7A of the periodic table contains the?
olga2289 [7]

The correct answer is A. Most reactive non metals.

Firstly if some one knows how to read the periodic table he would have no confusion in deciding whether group 7 has metals or non metals. Group 7 contains non metals so basically we can easily cancel out two options of metals.

Secondly group 7 non metals are the most reactive non metals as they need only one electron in order to complete their valence shell and become stable.
