You sure wouldn't want something like cm/s or (yikes cm/hr). You want a reasonable number for sports usually between 0 and 100

Km / hour would be a good choice.

The next town to where I live is 25 km away. On a good day, I can make it there in about 3/4 of an hour.

Speed = 25 km / 0.75 hour = 33.3 km/hour. That's actually a little fast most of the time. But you should understand what I mean.

When two or more identical capacitors are connected in series across a potential difference?
OlgaM077 [116]
<span>When two or more identical capacitors (or resistors) are connected
in series across a potential difference, the potential difference divides
equally among them.

For example, if you have nine identical capacitors (or resistors) all
connected end-to-end like elephants in a circus parade, and you
connect the string to a source of 117 volts (either AC or DC), then
you will measure

(117v / 9)  =  13 volts

across each unit in the string.</span>

Harrison wanted to find out what soil works best for growing roses. He grew them in potting soil, clay, sand, and soil he found
zepelin [54]

Answer:

This question is asking to identify the following variables:

Independent variable (IV): TYPE OF SOIL

Dependent variable (DV): HEIGHT AND NUMBER OF LEAVES

Control group: None in this experiment

Constant: SAME ROSE PLANT, SAME TIME INTERVAL (1 WEEK)

Explanation:

Independent variable in an experiment is the variable that is manipulated or changed by the experimenter in order to effect a measurable outcome. In this case, the independent variable is the TYPE OF SOIL used.

Dependent variable is the measurable variable that responds to changes made to the independent variable. In this experiment, the dependent variable is the HEIGHT AND NUMBER OF LEAVES of each rose.

Constants or control variable is the variable that is kept unchanged or constant for all groups throughout the experiment. In this experiment, the constants are SAME ROSE PLANT, SAME TIME INTERVAL (1 WEEK).

Control group are the groups that does not receive the experimental treatment. In this case, all the groups received the experimental treatment (different soil types). Hence, there is no control

Does anyone know this one? Thanks
Inessa [10]

Answer:

3.844\,*\,10^5

So a=3.844 and b=5

Explanation:

Scientific notation requests to write a number using powers of ten as a factor accompanying a real number (a) between 1 and smaller than 10 that contains the digits to exactly represent the original number. So in this case, the number 384,400 can be written as:

384,400=3.844 \,*\,100,000= 3.844 \,*\,10^5

with a=3.844, and "5" as the exponent of ten (so b=5)

We think of sound as something we hear—something that makes noise. But in pure physics terms, sound is just a vibration going through matter.

The way a vibration “goes through” matter is in the form of a sound wave. When you think of sound waves, you probably think of something like this:1

But that’s not how sound waves work. A wave like that is called a transverse wave, where each individual particle moves up and down to create a snake situation.

A sound wave is more like an earthworm situation:2

Like an earthworm, sound moves by compressing and decompressing. This is called a longitudinal wave. A slinky can do both kinds of waves:13

Sound starts with a vibration of some kind creating a longitudinal wave through matter. Check this out:4

That’s what sound looks like—except picture an expanding ripple of spheres doing that. In this animation, the sound wave is being generated by that vibrating grey bar on the left. The bar might be your vocal chords, a guitar string, or a waterfall continually pounding down into the river below. By looking at the red dots, you can see that even though the wave moves in one direction, each individual particle only moves back and forth, mimicking the vibration of the gray bar.

So instead of a curvy snake wave, sound is a pressure wave, which causes each piece of the air to be at either higher-than-normal pressure or lower-than-normal pressure. So when you see a snake-like illustration of a sound wave, it’s referring to the measure of pressure, not the literal path of movement of the particles:5

I throw a ball upward at an initial speed of 20 m/s. How much time does it take before the ball slows to a speed of 0 m/s
masha68 [24]
20/9.8 = 2.0 seconds. The ball stops after 2 seconds.
