Some tropical butterflies can reach speeds of up to 11 m/s. Suppose a butterfly flies at a speed of 6.0m/s while another flying

insect some distance ahead flies in the same direction with a constant speed. The butterfly then increases its speed at a constant rate of 1.4m/s2 and catches up to the other insect 3.0s later. How far the butterfly travel during the race

Answer:

24.3 m

Explanation:

Using the equation of motion

S=ut+0.5at^{2} where s is the distance, u is initial velocity, t is time and a is acceleration

Substituting u for 6 m/s, t for 3 s, a for 1.4 m/s2 we obtain

S=6*3+(0.5*1.4*3^{2}=18+6.3=24.3 m

For adults, the RDA of the amino acid lysine is 12 mg per kg of body weight. How many grams per day should a 78kg adult receive?
kari74 [83]
RDA stands for Recommended Daily Allowance. To determine the amount needed of a certain adult per day, we simply multiply the mass of the adult to the value of RDA. For this case, we do as follows:

Daily requirement = 12 mg/kg ( 78 kg ) = 936 mg of lysine = 936000 g

Describe what happens to the particles of a liquid, in terms of movement and kinetic energy, as it is cooled to its freezing poi
nataly862011 [7]
As a system is cooled to its freezing point, the kinetic energy of the particles in the system will lower so the movement are much slower. Cooling means taking out heat from the system. This process is a physical change because it is only the phase of the system is changed and it is still the substance after the process.

Is the sun yellow or is it orange.
LiRa [457]

Answer:

But the Sun isn't actually yellow; it's just an illusion caused by the Earth's atmosphere. The powerful processes happening inside the Sun are so robust that it emits every color of light imaginable. Together, these colors form a pure white light, which is precisely what you'd see from space.
