(1) Speed is the ratio of the total distance covered by the object and the total time it takes for him to finish it. 

    Speed = distance / time 

In this item, we are given that the distance is 20 kilometers and that the time it takes for the trip is 2 hours. Substituting the known values,
   Speed = 20 kilometers / 2 hours 
    speed = 20 km/h

(2) Velocity on the other hand takes into account the displacement of the object from his original position. It is assumed that Jeremie was basically back to his original position after two hours. Hence, the velocity is equal to zero.

When Missourians carve their initials into the bark of a tree, the damage leaves the tree open to ____________________.
sasho [114]

Answer:

In fact, carving letters into a tree probably won't hurt it. ... In general, the tree will compartmentalize the wound and it will heal over. The initials that remain visible are essentially scar tissue, permanent scar tissue.

Explanation:

Unfortunately, when carving into the trunk of a tree the blade of a knife often penetrates the outer bark and cuts into the inner bark. ... In cases that the phloem is damaged all the way around the trunk (in a ring for example), the tree will slowly and eventually starve to death.

To sterilize a 53.0 g glass baby bottle, we must raise its temperature from 25.0°C to 92.0°C. How much heat transfer (in J) is r
Stella [2.4K]

The heat energy required is 2983 J

Explanation:

When an amount of energy Q is supplied to a certain sample of substance of mass m, the temperature of the substance increases by an amount of \Delta T according to the equation :

Q=mC_s \Delta T

where

Q is the heat supplied

m is the mass of the object

C_s is the specific heat capacity of the substance

\Delta T is the change in temperature

For the glass bottle in this problem:

m=53.0 g

\Delta T = 92.0 - 25.0 =67.0^{\circ}C is the change in temperature

C_s = 0.84 J/g^{\circ}C is the specific heat of glass

Substituting into the equation, we find

Q=(53.0)(0.84)(67)=2983 J

Set local ground level to 700 ft, and record the inches of mercury.
irakobra [83]

The main way in which an altimeter measures the altitude of an object is by calculating the location's air pressure.

<h3>What is an Altimeter?</h3>

This refers to the instrument that is used to measure the altitude of an object when it is at a fixed level.

Hence, we can see that an altimeter should NOT be confused with a barometer, because although they both measure pressure, a barometer calculates the change in air pressure and elevation based on available weather.

Please note that your question is incomplete so I gave you a general overview to help you get a better understanding of the concept.

Where is the sun's energy most concentrated
Maru [420]

B. At the equator

Explanation:

The energy coming from the Sun hits the Earth's surface at different angles, depending on the latitude of the place. The more perpendicular the ray of lights hit the surface, the more the energy transmitted to the Earth's surface, the warmer the location.

The angle at which the ray of lights hit the Earth is related to the latitude: in particular, the ray of lights arrive perpendicular at the equator (0^{\circ}), they arrive at larger angle in the United States (which is located at intermediate latitudes) and they arrive at the largest angles at the poles. For this reason, the sun's most energy is concentrated at the equator.
