Answer:d

Explanation:

Given

First car is moving  towards east with velocity 20 m/s

\vec{v_1}=20\hat{i}

then it turns towards north then velocity is  

\vec{v_2}=10\hat{j}

suppose car takes t sec to change its path so average acceleration is given by

a=\frac{v_2-v_1}{t}

a=\frac{1}{t}(10\hat{j}-20\hat{i})

So average  acceleration is towards North of west.

What is the change all living things undergo as the grow
Vladimir [108]
All of the change that living things undergo as they grow is called development. That is the name when the changes are within a single unit and over a period of time as short as a lifetime. When the change occurs over thousands of years then it's called evolution.

The following three hot samples have the same temperature. The same amount of heat is removed from each sample. Which one experi
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

Smallest drop: Water

Largest drop: Dirt

Explanation:

The heat needed to change the temperature of a sample is:

Q=cm\Delta T (1)

with Q the heat (added(+) or removed(-)), c specific heat, m the mass and \Delta T the change in temperature of the sample. So, if we solve (1) for

Sample A:

\Delta T=-\frac{Q}{cm} =\frac{Q}{4186*4.0}

\Delta T=-\frac{Q}{16744}

Sample B:

\Delta T=-\frac{Q}{cm} =\frac{Q}{2700*2.0}

\Delta T=-\frac{Q}{5400}

Sample C:

\Delta T=-\frac{Q}{cm} =\frac{Q}{1050*9.0}

\Delta T=-\frac{Q}{9450}

Note that the numbers 16744, 5400, 9450 are in the denominator of the expression -\frac{Q}{cm} that gives the drop on temperature. so, if Q is the same for the three samples the smallest denominator gives the largest drop and vice versa.

So, the smallest drop is Sample A and the largest is Sample C.

(Important: The minus sign of \Delta T implies the temperature is dropping)

Why do some things stick together and others do not?
natita [175]

Answer:

Some examples of things that stick together include clothes after they were in the dryer because a charge builds up on the objects, causing them to attract to each other. Things that don't stick together may include two neutral objects, like two pieces of neutral paper. ... If they repel, then they are the same charge.
