This is simply referring to the fact that the gravitational pull of the earth is greater as you get closer to the surface of the earth, meaning that acceleration increases as well.

A plane travels 1743 KM in 2 hours 30 minutes. How fast was the plane traveling?
Advocard [28]

Answer:

v=697.2km/h

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, since the velocity is computed via the division of the distance traveled by the elapsed time:

V=\frac{d}{t}

The distance is clearly 1743 km and the time is:

t=2h+30min*\frac{1h}{60min} =2.5h

Thus, the velocity turns out:

v=\frac{1743km}{2.5h}\\ \\v=697.2km/h

Which is a typical velocity for a plane to allow it be stable when flying.

Best regards.

Three 20.0 ohm resistors are
V125BC [204]

Answer:

6.67 ohm

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Resistor 1 (R₁) =20 ohm

Resistor 2 (R₂) = 20 ohm

Resistor 3 (R₃) = 20 ohm

Equivalent Resistance (R) =?

Since the resistors are arranged in parallel connection, the equivalent resistance can be obtained as follow:

1/R = 1/R₁ + 1/R₂ + 1/R₃

1/R = 1/20 + 1/20 + 1/20

1/R = (1 + 1 + 1) / 20

1/R = 3/20

Invert

R = 20/3

R = 6.67 ohm

Therefore, the equivalent resistance is 6.67 ohm.

Describe a change caused by kinetic energy as well as a change that involves potential energy
kykrilka [37]
Kinetic energy is formed when the object is in motion.
Potential energy is the energy that is formed relative to others.

One of the example is Corn flour factory.

Corn turned into flour by a windmill that moved by the waterfall. Movement of the mill is relative to the power given by waterfall (potential energy) and the spinning crushes the corn into flour (kinetic energy)

What are some ways in which body fat can be measured
MissTica
I only know about the Water tank which is the most accurate. You place your body in it, and weights are added I think. Somehow some measurements are gathered to get your body fat weight. Online calculators exist, as well as electronic waves that are sent int your body, the echo is recorded and analyzed.
