Answer:

Explanation:

Let's start by stating that the work done here would be determined by taking into account the following:

-External forces

-Change in kinetic energy

Work Energy theorem is fully going to guide the solution to this problem.

Let's go now:

Mass of car = 1475kg

Velocity of car= 66.5km/h

Velocity = 66.5km/h * 0.278

V = 18.472 m/s

Kinetic Energy (K.E) = 1/2(mv^2)

K.E = 0.5 * 1475 * 18.472^2

K.E = 737.5 * 341.214

K.E = 251645.90 kgm^2/s^2

1kgm^2/s^2 = 1 Joule

So therefore,

K.E = 251645.90 Joules

K.E = 60.144KCals

What happens to gravitational force as Earth moves farther from the Sun in its orbit?
topjm [15]
The closer a planet is to the Sun, the stronger the Sun's gravitational pull on it, and the faster the planet moves. The farther it is from the Sun, the weaker the Sun's gravitational pull, and the slower it moves in its orbit.

Which example shows an organism maintaining homeostasis?
Naddik [55]
The example that shows an organism maintaining homeostasis is b. a person sweating on a hot day. Homeostasis is an organism's ability to maintain a stable internal environment irrespective of the external environment. When a person's body overheats, the body releases water as perspiration or sweat to cool itself down. Another example is when a person gets cold, the hair on his arms and legs, stand up straight - to trap air circulating round his body, and heat it up.

Which of the following puts the formation of a star in order
Andru [333]
<span><span>Clouds of gas form within galaxies.
</span><span>Formation of structure within the gas clouds, due to "turbulence" and activity of new stars.
</span><span>Random turbulent processes lead to regions dense enough to collapse under their own weight, in spite of a hostile environment.
</span><span>As blob collapses, a disk forms, with growing "protostar" at the center.
</span><span>At the same time, bipolar outflows from forming star/disk system begin.
</span><span>Material is processed, moving in from the blob to the disk. What is not lost in the outflow builds up on the protostar.
</span><span>When the protostar begins to undergo fusion, it becomes a real star.
</span><span>Once the outflow ceases and the "accretion" phase that lead to the buildup of the star ends, a disk of "leftover" material is left around the star.
</span><span>At or near the end of the star-formation process, the remaining material in the "circumstellar disk" (a.k.a. "protoplanetary disk") forms a variety of planets.
</span><span>Eventually, all that is left behind is a new star, perhaps some planets, and a disk of left-over ground-up solids, visible as a "Debris Disk"around stars other than the Sun, and known as the "Zodaical Dust Disk" around the Sun.</span></span>

Imagine that a disorder that causes the cell cycle to stop affects the muscle cells of a frog’s leg. What consequence is most li
Triss [41]

Answer:

This disorder may reduce the number of muscle cells and thus affects the muscle mass

Explanation:

During aging, it has been shown that there is a reduction in the number of muscle cells which are replaced by connective tissue and adipose cells. In consequence, it is expected that this type of disorder associated with faulty cell cycle regulation may cause a decrease in muscle mass
