Answer:

A) yes

Explanation:

First section of trip: 30 miles in 40 minutes

Second section of trip: 15 miles in 20 minutes

The formula for speed is distance over time k=\frac{d}{t}

Calculate the speeds for each section of the trip.

First:

k = d/t

k = 30miles/40minutes  <= reduce fraction by 10 (30÷10 and 40÷10)

k = 3 miles / 4 minutes

Second:

k = d/t

k = 15miles/20minutes  <= reduce fraction by 5 (15÷5 and 20÷5)

k = 3 miles / 4 minutes

Therefore there is a constant speed because both sections of the trip are driving at "3 miles / 4 minutes".

3 miles / 4 minutes can be also formatted as:

0.75 miles per minute.

The nucleus contains protons and neutrons. Being positively charged, the protons repel each other. The nucleus should fly apart
Arte-miy333 [17]

this is due to the existence of other forces called the strong nuclear forces that overcomes the repulsion forces between the protons and keeps the nucleons holding to each other also there is a type of energy that is called the nuclear binding energy and this energy also works on binding the components of the nucleus together
