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 />

PROJECTILE MOTION-Why isn't there any accelertion in the x direction while there is an acceleration of -g in the y direction? ..

Ahat [919]

There is no acceleration of g in the x direction because the gravitational acceleration points downward. Also, on most studies we ignore the tidal forces since we are dealing with small bodies compared to the size of the earth.

a train is moving with an initial velocity of 30 m/s, the brakes are applied so as to produce a uniform acceleration of -1.5 m/s

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf Time \ in \ which \ train \ will \ come \ to \ rest = 20 \ sec}$

Given:

Initial velocity (u) = 30 m/s

Final speed (v) = 0 m/s

Acceleration (a) = - 1.5 m/,s²

To Find:

Time in which train will come to rest (t).

Explanation:

$\sf From \ equation \ of \ motion: \\ \sf \implies \bold{v = u + at} \\ \\ \sf Substituting \ value \ of \ v, \ u \ and \ a: \\ \sf \implies 0 = 30 + ( - 1.5)(t) \\ \sf \implies 0 = 30 - 1.5(t) \\ \sf \implies 30 - 1.5(t) = 0 \\ \\ \sf Subtract \: 30 \: from \: both \: sides: \\ \sf \implies (30 - \boxed{ \sf 30}) - 1.5(t) = \boxed{ \sf - 30} \\ \\ \sf 30 - 30 = 0 : \\ \sf \implies - 1.5(t) = - 30 \\ \\ \sf Divide \: both \: sides \: of \: - 1.5(t) = - 30 \: by \: - 1.5 : \\ \sf \implies \frac{ - 1.5(t)}{ \boxed{ \sf - 1.5}} = \frac{ - 30}{ \boxed{ \sf -1.5 }} \\ \\ \sf \frac{ \cancel{ \sf 1.5}}{\cancel{ \sf 1.5}} = 1 : \\ \sf \implies t = \frac{ - 30}{ - 1.5} \\ \\ \sf \frac{ - 30}{ - 1.5} = \frac{\cancel{ \sf 1.5} \times 20}{\cancel{ \sf 1.5}} = 20 : \\ \sf \implies t = 20 \: sec$

So,

Time in which train will come to rest = 20 seconds

Answer:

chicken noodle soup

Explanation:

Heterogenous mixture is the mixture where you can see differnt parts of it, hence "hetero".

you can see chicken, noodles, and broth in chicken noodle soup
