Air pockets. Between two blankets, a pocket will form. Then, it will heat up along with the body heat.

I think it is because a big thick blanket has more room in it. if you have two thin blankets there isn't a whole lot there so it keeps the warmth in. <span />

A jogger moves from a position x =
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

3 m/s

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the change in displacement of the jogger. This can be obtained as follow:

Initial displacement (d₁) = 4 m

Final displacement (d₂) = 16 m

Change in displacement (Δd) =?

Δd = d₂ – d₁

Δd = 16 – 4

Δd = 12 m

Finally, we shall determine the determine the average velocity. This can be obtained as follow:

Change in displacement (Δd) = 12 m

Time (t) = 4 s

Velocity (v) =?

v = Δd / t

v = 12 / 4

v = 3 m/s

Thus, the average velocity of the jogger is 3 m/s

How do atoms join together?
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

Atoms can be joined together by chemical bonds.

Explanation:

When atoms form bonds, they can achieve a stable electron arrangement. To achieve a stable electron arrangement atoms can lose, gain or share electrons. There are many different types of bonds that hold atoms together.

a block is suspended 5 m above the ground if the block has a mass of 20 kg how much potential energy is stored in the block (g=
ozzi

Answer:

P.E = 980 Joules

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 20 kg

Height = 5m

Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

To find the potential energy stored in the block;

Mathematically, potential energy is given by the formula;

P.E = mgh

Where,

P.E represents potential energy measured in Joules.

m represents the mass of an object.

g represents acceleration due to gravity measured in meters per seconds square.

h represents the height measured in meters.

Substituting into the equation, we have;

P.E = 20 * 9.8 * 5

P.E = 980 Joules

An advanced computer sends information to its various parts via infrared light pulses traveling through silicon fibers (n = 3.50
sasho [114]

Answer:

d = 6.43 cm

Explanation:

Given:

- Speed resistance coefficient in silicon n = 3.50

- Memory takes processing time t_p = 0.50 ns

- Information is to be obtained within T = 2.0 ns

Find:

- What is the maximum distance the memory unit can be from the central processing unit?

Solution:

- The amount of time taken for information pulse to travel to memory unit:

                            t_m = T - t_p

                            t_m = 2.0 - 0.5 = 1.5 ns

- We will use a basic relationship for distance traveled with respect to speed of light and time:

                           d = V*t_m

- Where speed of light in silicon medium is given by:

                           V = c / n

- Hence,              d = c*t_m / n

-Evaluate:           d = 3*10^8*1.5*10^-9 / 3.50

                           d = 0.129 m 12.9 cm

- The above is the distance for pulse going to and fro the memory and central unit. So the distance between the two is actually d / 2 = 6.43 cm
