You didn’t include the options but I’m pretty sure I took that same test it is


A) toward the center of a circle, which changes the direction of motion but not the speed.

A softball is thrown from the origin of an x-y coordinate system with an initial speed of 18 m/s at an angle of 35∘ above the ho
podryga [215]
<span>What we need to first do is split the ball's velocity into vertical and horizontal components. To do that multiply by the sin or cos depending upon if you're looking for the horizontal or vertical component. If you're uncertain as to which is which, look at the angle in relationship to 45 degrees. If the angle is less than 45 degrees, the larger value will be the horizontal speed, if the angle is greater than 45 degrees, the larger value will be the vertical speed. So let's calculate the velocities sin(35)*18 m/s = 0.573576436 * 18 m/s = 10.32437585 m/s cos(35)*18 m/s = 0.819152044 * 18 m/s = 14.7447368 m/s Since our angle is less than 45 degrees, the higher velocity is our horizontal velocity which is 14.7447368 m/s. To get the x positions for each moment in time, simply multiply the time by the horizontal speed. So 0.50 s * 14.7447368 m/s = 7.372368399 m 1.00 s * 14.7447368 m/s = 14.7447368 m 1.50 s * 14.7447368 m/s = 22.1171052 m 2.00 s * 14.7447368 m/s = 29.48947359 m Rounding the results to 1 decimal place gives 0.50 s = 7.4 m 1.00 s = 14.7 m 1.50 s = 22.1 m 2.00 s = 29.5 m</span>

a bike is moving with a velocity of 90km/hr.after applying break it stops in 5 sec. calculate the force applied by brakes .mass
pentagon [3]

Explanation:

initial velocity(u) = 90 km/s = 25 m/s

time (t) = 5 sec

mass (m) = 200 kg 

final velocity (v) = 0 m/s

v = u + at 

0 = 25 + a * 5

-25 = 5 a

-5 = a

Therefore acceleration = -5m/s²

Force = mass * acceleration 

F = 200*-5

F = -1000 N

Why do we need the periodic table? First to answer get brainless!!!!!
mylen [45]
<span>The periodic table is the most important chemistry reference there is. It arranges all the known elements in an informative array. Elements are arranged left to right and top to bottom in order of increasing atomic number. Order generally coincides with increasing atomic mass.

Which would be the best metal to use for the insulated wire?
katrin2010 [14]
Copper, because it has the lowest specific electrical resistance.

specific electrical resistance aka volume resistivity is a fundamental property of a material that quantifies how strongly that material opposes the flow of electric current. A low resistivity indicates a material that readily allows the flow of electric current.
