3 0

solution:

We know v0 = 0, a = 9.8, t = 4.0. We need to solve for v

so,

we use the equation:

v = v0 + at

v = 0 + 9.8*4.0

v = 39.2 m/s

Now we just need to solve for d, so we use the equation:

d = v0t + 1/2*a*t^2

d = 0*4.0 + 1/2*9.8*4.0^2

d = 78.4 m

What is the total displacement of an ant that walks 2 meters west, 3 meters south, 4 meters east, and 1 meter
Ivan

(2m west) + (3m south) + (4m east) + (1m north) =

[ (2m west)+(4m east) ] + [ (3m south)+(1m north) ] =

[ (-2m east)+(4m east) ] + [ (3m south)-(1m south) ] =

(2m east) + (2m south)

Now, so far, we have the orthogonal (perpendicular) components of the displacement ... the North/South component and the East/West component.

To combine these, it's time for Pythagoras:

Displacement = √[ (2m)² + (2m)² ]

Displacement = √ (4m² + 4m²)

Diplacement = √8m²  

<em>Displacement =  2.83 meters Southeast</em>

What is a word that means have adapted to antibiotics?
zzz [600]
If you are referring to bacteria, the word "resistant" is applicable, as bacteria adapt to antibiotics by undergoing natural selection to enhance antibiotic-resistant genes.
If you are referring to humans or higher-order species, "grown tolerant" could be used to say that perhaps a certain antibiotic dosage is no longer as effective as it used to be and that a higher dosage is needed. "Acclimated" can also be used to say that an organism's body had to adjust to the exposure to a new, unfamiliar antibiotic.

A girl delivering newspapers covers her route by traveling 3.00 blocks west, 4.00 blocks north, and then 6.00 blocks east. What
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

13 blocks

Explanation:

The total distance the student travels is 13 blocks.

 Distance is the length of path covered during the motion of a body.

 To find distance:

 Total distance  = Number of blocks to the west + number of blocks to the north + number of blocks to the east

 Total distance  = 3blocks + 4blocks + 6blocks  = 13blocks
