Answer:

Option A

Solution:

As per the question:

The distance covered by the woman in the North direction, d = 3000 m

Time taken to travel in North direction, t = 25.0 min = 1500 s

Velocity of woman in the south direction, v = 2.00 m/s

Time taken in the south direction, t' = 60.0 min = 3600 s

Now,

The distance covered in the south direction, d' = vt' = 2.00\times 3600 = 7200\ m

Now, the total displacement is given by:

D = d' - d = 7200 - 3000 = 4200 m in South

(a) Average velocity of the woman in the whole journey is given by:

v_{avg} = \frac{Total\ displacement}{Total\ time} = \frac{4200}{t + t'}

v_{avg} = \frac{4200}{1500 + 3600} = 0.8235\ m/s ≈ 0.824 m/s South

If the frequency of q of a trait is 0.4, what is the frequency of p?
lianna [129]
In genetic traits, p and q represent the relative probabilities of the two alleles manifesting. If these two are the only options (ex. a dominant one and a recessive one), then the probabilities of both must sum up to 1. In this case, since we are given that q = 0.4, then p + q = 1, p + 0.4 = 1, and p = 0.6.

Why might a balloon, that is inflated almost to its capacity, pop or explode on an extremely warm day?
REY [17]
On an extremely warm day, the balloon might pop because gases expand the hotter they get, and due to its temperature it is likely to pop if it is, indeed, nearly, if not completely, filled to its capacity.  I hope this helps, have a nice day!

How do atoms become more chemically stable?
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

For an atom to become totally stable, it needs to have a full outer shell. To do this, two or more atoms will share or give away electrons to each other in a process called bonding.

Explanation:

When an atom loses or gains an electron, it becomes an ion. If it gains an electron, it's a cation, and if it loses one, it's an anion. This happens most commonly in chemical reactions, in which atoms share electrons to form a stable outer shell of 8. For example, the water molecule consists of two hydrogen atoms and an oxygen atom.

1) A record is spinning at the rate of 25 rpm. If a ladybug is sitting 10 cm from the
Sladkaya [172]

<h2>distance = 523 cm</h2>

Explanation:

( a ) The rotational speed of the ladybug = 25 r.p.m = 25/60 r.p.s

= 5/12 rev/sec

( b ) The definition of frequency is the number of rotations per second .

Here the number of rotations per second is 5/12 . Thus frequency = 5/12 Hz

( c ) The tangential speed is v = angular velocity x radius of rotation

The angular velocity ω = 2π x n , where n is the number of rotations per second

Thus angular velocity = 2π x 5/12   = 5π/6 rad/sec

The linear velocity = angular velocity x distance from center of record

Thus tangential speed = 5π/6 x 10 = 25π/3 cm/sec

Angular displacement in 20 sec = ω x t = 5π/6 x 20 = 50π/3 rad

Linear displacement = angular displacement x distance from center of record

= 50π/3 x 10 = 500π/3 = 523 cm

A plane starting from rest (vo = 0 m/s) when t0 = 0s. The plane accelerates down the runway, and at 29 seconds, its velocity is
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

Acceleration, a=2.48\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Given that,

The plane is at rest initially, u = 0

Final speed of the plane, v = 72.2 m/s

Time, t = 29 s

We need to find the average acceleration for the plane. It can be calculated as :

a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}

a=\dfrac{72.2}{29}

a=2.48\ m/s^2

So, the average acceleration for the plane is 2.48\ m/s^2. Hence, this is the required solution.
