8 0

Answer:

s=800 m

Explanation:

Given that,

Acceleration of a runner, a = 4 m/s²

Time, t = 20 seconds

We need to find the distance covered by her. Initially, she was at rest. It means its initial velocity is equal to 0. So, using second equation of motion as follows :

$s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2$

Herre, u = 0

$s=\dfrac{1}{2}at^2\\\\s=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 4\times (20)^2\\\\s=800\ m$

So, she will cover a distance of 800 m.

An object with an initial velocity of 10 m/s accelerates at a rate of 3.5 m/s2 for 8 seconds. How far will it have traveled duri

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Distance, d = 192 meters

Explanation:

We have,

Initial velocity of an object is 10 m/s

Acceleration of the object is 3.5 m/s²

Time, t = 8 s

We need to find the distance travelled by the object during that time. Second equation of motion gives the distance travelled by the object. It is given by :

$d=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2$

$d=10\times 8+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 3.5\times 8^2\\\\d=192\ m$

So, the distance travelled by the object is 192 meters.

Two students below described a part of Earth's innermost layer:

Molodets [167]

The answer to your question is B- They both described the inner part otherwise known as the inner core.

The inner core is hotter than the surface of the sun. The inner core is made out of iron and nickel. The inner core is extremely hot and is the last layer. It is a solid because of all the pressure from the other layers putting there weight onto this layer.

adell [148]

Hi!

The answers would be <u>chunking</u> & <u>short-term</u>

1. <u>Chunking </u>involves organizing and breaking down information into easier groups to expand capacity.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Chunking is a mental process that is observed to increase short-term memory by taking the information and categorizing it into small groups. For instance, a longer number taken as a single unit is harder to recall then when it is divided into smaller units. 235469350 is harder to instantly recall as compared to when it is chunked into 3 groups: 235 469 350.

This allows more information to be stored in, thereby increasing the capacity of the mind to store information.

2. Rehearsal is the verbal repetition of information. These techniques are especially important for the improvement of <u>short-term</u> memory.

<h3>Explanation: </h3>

Short-term memory is lost after a couple of seconds or minutes, for instance even if you chunk the information, you might not recall it after 30 seconds. Rehearsing or repetition of information, either loudly or mentally, extends the time a particular information is retained.

So you depending on the number of times you repeat the number 235 469 350, the more your short term memory improves .

Hope this helps!

ASAP PLEASE! WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST ANSWER! The pictures below show the wavelengths and intensities of electromagnetic radiations

rjkz [21]

As per Weins displacement law the wavelength of light for which we get the peak of the graph is always inversely proportional to the temperature.

So we can say

$/lambda = \frac{b}{T}$
