Answer:

D = 26.97 m

Explanation:

given,

you walk 12.5 m in a direction exactly 19° south of west

after that 19.5 m in a direction exactly 39° west of north.

distance calculation from the starting point = ?

D₁ = d₁ cos θ

D₁ = 12.5 x cos 19°

D₁ = 11.82 m

D₂ = d₂ cos θ

D₂ = 19.5 x cos 39°

D₂ = 15.15 m

distance from the starting point

D = D₁ + D₂

D = 11.82 + 15.15

D = 26.97 m

Distance from the starting point is equal to  26.97 m

A dragster runs the quarter mile in 8.96 s. What is the car's velocity (in ft/s) at the finish line?
lara [203]
The first thing you should know to answer this question is the following conversion:
 1mi = 5280feet
 We have then that the speed is:
 v = ((1/4) * (5280)) / (8.96)
 v = 147.32 feet / s
 Answer:
 the car's velocity (in ft / s) at the finish line is 147.32 feet / s

When an object moves, stops moving, changes speed, or changes direction, how do scientists describe that condition?
lorasvet [3.4K]
Drop "moves" from the list for a moment.

You can also drop "stops moving", because that's included in "changes speed"
(from something to zero).

When an object changes speed or changes direction, that's called "acceleration".

I dropped the first one from the list, because an object can be moving,
and as long as it's speed is constant and it's moving in a straight line,
there's no acceleration.

I think you meant to say "starts moving". That's a change of speed (from zero
to something), so it's also acceleration.

How would you respond to a person who argued that the Big Bang theory is incorrect because it is only a theory and theories have
Umnica [9.8K]

Well, you would reply that that's not what theories are. Theories explain the how and the why, laws explain the what. So, the Big Bang theory isn't "just a theory". It's a theory, it explains the how. (Also, if someone tells you it's anti-God or whatever, tell them the thoery was created by a Catholic scientist. True fact.) I hoped this helped!!! (You don't have the include who created the theory if this is for homework.)
