Average speed  =  (total distance)  /  (total time to cover the distance)

                             =  (15 km + 33 km)  /  (1 hr + 2 hrs)

                             =      (48 km)          /    (3 hrs)

                             =                    (48/3)    km/hr

                             =                       16      km/hr .

What is the law of gravity?
Harlamova29_29 [7]
Newton's law of universal gravitation states that a particle attracts every other particle in the universe using a force that is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them

Charge X has twice as much charge as particle Y. The two charges are placed near each other. Compared to the force on particle X
Art [367]

The force on charge Y is the same as the force on charge X

Explanation:

We can answer this problem by applying Newton's third law of motion, which states that:

"When an object A exerts a force on object B (action force), then object B exerts an equal and opposite force on object A (reaction force)"

In this problem, we can identify object A as charge X and object B as charge Y. The magnitude of the electrostatic force between them is given by

F=k\frac{q_x q_y}{r^2}  (1)

where:

k=8.99\cdot 10^9 Nm^{-2}C^{-2} is the Coulomb's constant

q_x, q_y are the two charges

r is the separation between the two charges

According to Newton's third law, therefore, the magnitude of the force exerted by charge X on charge Y is the  same as the force exerted by charge Y on charge X (and it is given by eq.(1)), however their directions are opposite.

A child pulls a wagon at a constant velocity along a level sidewalk. The child does this by applying a 22 newton force to the wa
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

The answer is 18 N.

Explanation:

A force can be divided into components x and y components. The component along the x-axis is called the horizontal component and along the y-axis is called the vertical component. In this case, as the force is in a horizontal direction and is also known as x-component of force. The x- component of force is  

Fx = Fcosθ

Fx = 22(cos 35°)

Fx = 22 x 0.819

Fx =  18 N

Child's horizontal pull forces are equal to that of frictional resistance force on the wagon.

PLEASE HELP ME I HAVE BEEN DOING THIS FOR HOURS!! How do some carnivorous plants avoid beginning the digestion process from an a
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

Once a carnivorous plant has procured an item for dinner, it has to have some way to turn it into fertilizer. What carnivorous plants do is very similar to what humans do with their dinner after they have eaten it. Most carnivorous plants have glands that secrete acids and enzymes to dissolve proteins and other compounds. The plants may also enlist other organisms to help with digestion. The plants then absorb the nutrients made available from the prey.

Drosera releases digestive juices through the glands at the tip of its tentacles and absorbs the nutrients through the tentacles, leaf surface, and sessile glands. In order to do this it bends its tentacles and rolls or bends the leaf to get as many tentacles as possible into contact with the prey for digestion and to make as much leaf surface available for absorption. Its relative Drosophyllum has differently structured, non moving tentacles and doesn't use them directly for digestion. Instead it has specialized glands on the surface of the leaf that release the digestive enzymes (see Carniv. Pl. Newslett. 11(3):66-73 ( PDF ) for drawings and discussion).

The sealed trap of Dionaea does digestion in a way similar to the leaf surface digestion carnivores—upon capture of a prey, digestive enzymes in mucous are released. The advantage of the sealed trap of Dionaea is rain won't wash away the nutrients as digestion proceeds.

The sealed trap carnivores Aldrovanda and Utricularia already have water in their traps so they only need to release enzymes. Utricularia appears to release the enzymes continuously into its traps.

The other carnivorous plants use either a mixed mode of digestive enzymes and partner organisms (Genlisea, Sarracenia, most Nepenthes, Cephalotus, some Heliamphora, Roridula) or other organisms exclusively for digestion (most Heliamphora, some Nepenthes, Darlingtonia). Part of the reason for partnering with other organisms is that the plants actually have little choice in the matter. This could also be a factor for the leaf surface and sealed trap digesters as well. The prey will have gut flora that are quite capable of digesting their host when it dies. In addition, insect larvae, frog tadpoles, and predacious protozoans will or will attempt to take up residence in water-filled traps. The plant releasing digestive enzymes and acids into the traps will help tip the nutrition balance to themselves, but there are limits.
