Answer:

It's option d - Negative acceleration

Explanation:

Let's start by demonstrate why it's not option b - Speed : Speed is a scalar quantity so it can not be represented by a vector

Let's check that the green vectors represent velocity (velocity is a vector quantity, velocity is a direction aware, while speed is just a scalar)

Now let's show that the circled vectors are acceleration vectors:

Mathematically position X , velocity V and acceleration A are:

$\frac{dX}{dt} = V$ and $\frac{dV}{dt} = A$

Where X, V, A are vectors and $\frac{d(a)}{dt} = b$ indicates the derivate a of a time is equal to b.

So, this show that acceleration is a rate respect of time of velocity ⇒ When acceleration is positive, velocity increments, when acceleration is negative, velocity decrements.

The above explanation correspond to the motion map shown, getting demonstrated that the answer is D - Negative acceleration

In a series circuit what effect will adding more resistors to the circuit have

zhuklara [117]

Answer:In a series circuit, adding more resistors increases total resistance and thus lowers current. But the opposite is true in a parallel circuit because adding more resistors in parallel creates more choices and lowers total resistance. If the same battery is connected to the resistors, current will increase.

What is a warming sign that suggest a weight loss plan is a fad diet rather than a healthy weight loss plan?

Serga [27]

Answer:

Warming signs before fad diet includes:

1. When a special type of diet is recommended for weight loss.

2. When quick weight loss is promised instead of advice on the need to exercise, eat healthy foods including fruits and vegetables, and adopt a good feeding behavior.

3. Promises rapid weight loss in a short period of time.

After taking the fad diet the following might be experienced:

1. Constipation.

2. Weakness and fatigue.

3. More accumulation of fats in the body in the long run after a short term normal BMI (Body mass index).

4. Lower metabolic rates over time.

Explanation:

weight loss is a practice adopted by people for various reasons ranging from the desire to stay healthy to, ability to pursue a career that requires a good Body Mass Index. For instance, A BMI (Body mass index) which is equal to a person's weight (kg) / (height(m))^2 of 30 and higher is considered obese.

Fad diet which may give a temporary result of weight loss is not considered totally healthy as it doesn't capture the need to eat a healthy balanced diet instead focuses on more routine consumption of a particular kind of diet.

A healthy weight loss plan captures the need to exercise, reduce body fats while eating healthy. Eating fruits, vegetables are also encouraged.
