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 physicist found that a force of 0.72N was measured between two charged sphere. The distance between the sphere was 0.90 m. Cal
aalyn [17]
What you can use is coulomb's inverse square law that states that force varies inversly as the square of distance.  <span>It menas that the force is calculated by dividing by distance squared. what this does is essentially as the distance doubles, the forces is reduced by a factor of 4 or can be divided by 4. Force at 0.5m=2.3328N. And brings you ti the answer</span>

If a baseball's velocity is increased to four times its original velocity, by what factor does its kinetic energy increase
jeyben [28]

Answer:

16 times

Explanation:

Original

KE(i)  = 1/2mv²

After increasing

KE(f) = 1/2m(4v)²

KE(f) = 8mv²

KE(f)/KE(i) = 8 x 2 = 16

__________ helps us adapt to our environment. It also generally __________ with age. A. Plasticity . . . decreases B. Developmen
Nana76 [90]
Not sure this is a physics question (probably biology).
Anyway, the correct answer is A):
"Plasticity helps us to adapt to our environment. It also generally decreases with age".
Plasticity is the ability to adapt to the environment. Since this ability is linked with brain functions, and brain functions worsen with age, then plasticity decreases with age.
