Sunday, July 20, marked 45 years since the United States put the first two astronauts safely on the moon. The cost for the Mercury, Gemini and Apollo programs was more than $25 billion at the time more like $110 billion in today’s world. The ensuing U.S. space efforts have cost an additional $196 billion for the shuttle and $50 billion for the space station. NASA’s total inflation-adjusted costs have been more than $900 billion since its creation in 1958 through 2014 (more than $16 billion per year). Looking back, have we gotten our money’s worth from the investment?

According to Ohm's law, a circuit with a high resistance _____. will have a low electric current will have a high electric curre
lyudmila [28]
Remark
When you are asked a question like this, the first thing to do is search out a formula and put some limits on it.

Formula
I = E/R which comes from E = IR. To get to the derived formula, divide both sides by R
E/R = I*R/R
E/R = I

Discussion
This is an inverse relationship. That means that as one goes up the other one will go down. 

So in this case you keep E constant and you manipulate R and look at your results for I

Case 1

Let us say that E = 10 volts
Let us also say the R = 10 ohms

I = E/R
I = 10/10
I = 1 ohm

Case Two
Let's raise the Resistance to 100 ohms
E = 10
R = 100
I = 10/100 = 0.1 

Conclusion
As the Resistance goes up, the current goes down. Answer: A

A ride-sharing car moving along a straight section of road starts from rest, accelerating at 2.00 m/s2 until it reaches a speed
fgiga [73]

Answer:

Explanation:

Time taken to accelerate to 28 m /s

= 28 / 2 = 14 s

a ) Total length of time in motion

= 14 + 41 + 5

= 60 s .

b )

Distance covered while accelerating

s = ut + 1/2 at²

= 0 + .5 x 2 x 14²

= 196 m .

Distance covered while moving in uniform motion

= 28 x 41

= 1148 m

distance covered while decelerating

v = u - at

0 = 28 - a x 5

a = 5.6 m / s²

v² = u² - 2 a s

0 = 28² - 2 x 5.6 x s

s = 28² / 2 x 5.6

= 70 m .

Total distance covered

= 196 + 1148 + 70

= 1414 m

total time taken = 60 s

average velocity

= 1414 / 60

= 23.56 m /s .
