A car traveling at 60 mph has how much more energy than a car going at 20 mph? K.E. increases by a factor of there is no increas

e in KE 3 times 9 times impossible to tell because the mass of the car is unknown

Answer:

Assuming that the masses of the cars are the same

9 times

Explanation:

Kinetic energy can be computed using the formula:

KE = \dfrac{mv^{2}}{2}

Where:

KE = Kinetic energy

m = mass

v = velocity

As you can see in your problem, the velocity of the the first car mentioned is 3 times faster.

Looking at the the formula, velocity is raised to two (2). So if we put it in terms of equations this is how it will look:

Let v = velocity of the slower car

Car 1: velocity = (3v)

KE=\dfrac{mv^{2}}{2}

KE=\dfrac{(m)(3v)^{2}}{2}

KE=\dfrac{(m)9v^{2}}{2}

The increase is by a factor of 9.

What is natural selection? How does this work on organisms in nature? (should be at least 3 sentences)
BigorU [14]

Answer:

The natural selection is a theory made by Charles Darwin where animals better adapted to their environment tend to survive and produce offspring. for example, there are about 50% of beetle that are green and 50% orange.  If crows tend to eat green beetles more, there will be more orange beetle to produce offspring so there wood then be less green beetles to be eaten by crows.

An environment can change over time and this will cause for the animals living in the environment to adapt as well. These changes will occur when an animal with undesirable traits don't survive to reproduce. The offspring of individuals that do survive to reproduce will inherit their parent's desirable traits. Over many generations, the desirable traits will be seen in more-and sometimes all- of the individuals in the population

Explanation:

That is the natural selection told in my words, but please do your best to rewrite your own sentence/paragraph. Copying another's work is called plagiarism and any teacher can automatically give you a 0% for this.

Anyway, goodluck.

Structure moves up against epiglottis when food is swallowed to prevent passage of food into it.
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is A. The larynx moves up against epiglottis when food is swallowed to prevent passage of food into it.

Explanation:

The epiglottis is a moist, cartilaginous structure that is part of the cartilaginous skeleton of the larynx. It also marks the boundary between the oropharynx and the laryngopharynx. The epiglottis obstructs the passage of the bolus at the time of swallowing preventing it from going to the respiratory system.

Larynx closure occurs when the vestibular and vocal folds approach the midline during swallowing. Occasionally, when you eat very fast, solid foods or liquids can enter the larynx.

They consider it to be psuedoscience because we no longer need the location of stars and planets to know when to do things like harvest crops.

Hope this helps!
