Distance is 50 km

Displacement is 10 km

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Distance toward south, x = 25 km

Distance towards west, y = 10 km

Distance towards north, z = 15 km

(a) Total distance, D = ?

Total distance, D = x + y + z

                       D = 25 + 10 + 15

                       D = 50km

(b) Displacement, d = ?

Displacement = final position - initial position

                      = 10 - 0 km

                      = 10km

Kryger [21]

Answer: Option (C)

Explanation: Rock cycle plays an important role in the alteration of rocks from one form to another.

  1. Igneous rocks when undergoes high temperature and pressure condition, it transforms into a metamorphic rock.
  2. Sedimentary rocks are formed from the sedimentation and consolidation of sediments
  3. Igneous rocks are formed due to the crystallization of magma.

Hence the correct answer is option (C)

The force between two interacting charges is 9.0 × 10-5 newtons. They are kept 1 meter apart. If the magnitude of one charge is
Oliga [24]

The magnitude of other charge will be 1 × 10⁻² coulomb

The formula of electrostatic force is

Electrostatic force = K q1 q1 / r²

where k is the coulomb's constant whose value is 9 × 10⁹

q1 and a2 are the magnitude of charges

and r is the distance between them

magnitude of the force given to us is 9.0 × 10⁻⁵ newtons

magnitude of one charge = 1.0 × 10⁻⁶ coulomb

Force = K q1 q2 / r²

9.0 × 10⁻⁵ = ( ( 9 × 10⁹ ) × ( 1.0 × 10⁻⁶ ) × q2 ) / 1

9.0 × 10⁻⁵ =  9 × 10³ × q2  

10⁻² = q2  

Charge on q2 is 1 × 10⁻² coulomb

So the magnitude of the second charge is came out to be 1 × 10⁻² coulomb after applying the formula of electrostatic force.

Energy waves traveling at the speed of light are called _____.
koban [17]
RADIATION

There are three types of heat transfer or heat propagation; conduction, convection and radiation. Heat transfer is the process by which heat projects externally however, depending on the temperature and pressure. Also called the movement of heat from a low temperatured state which increases as heat progresses.
Conduction is the heat transfer by contact, immediate contact.
Convection is the transfer of heat through air and water.
<span>Radiation is the transfer of heat regardless of the presence of atoms or particles.<span>

Help me! I need to know this for my Veterinarian unit in class. Why do cats hate water?
loris [4]

Another reason why cats hate water is attributed to their history. There is not much in a cat's background to recommend them for successful interactions with bodies of water, be it small or big. Cat's ancestors lived in dry arid places which means rivers or oceans weren't obstacles they had to face.

Hope this helps:)
