Answer:

She was obese and had a diet high in salt intake.

Explanation:

higher blood pressure is condition known as hypertension which is the main cause of many heart problems which can be life threatening. In obese people. high level of fats inside the blood vessels which can cause blockage inside and can lead to heart problems.

high concentration of salts intake also disturbs the salts concentration in the blood vessels. The disturbance in salt concentration is the function of the kidney to remove it. the increase concentration also  cause increase in blood pressure which leads to hypertension.

A freight train rolls along a track with considerable momentum. If it were to roll at the same speed but had twice as much mass,
fomenos

Answer:

The momentum would be doubled

Explanation:

The magnitude of the momentum of the freight train is given by:

p=mv

where

m is the mass of the train

v is its speed

In this problem, we have that the speed of the train is unchanged, while the mass of the train is doubled:

m'=2m

therefore, the new momentum is

p'=m'v=(2m)v=2(mv)=2p

so, the momentum has also doubled.

Which describes what an outside observer at rest would observe about a spaceship that speeds up and approaches the speed of ligh
Art [367]
The outside observer, at rest relative to the spaceship, would see the spaceship
get shorter. and the clocks on the spaceship run slower than they should.

At the same time, the crew of the spaceship, looking back at the observer on
Earth, would see the observer on Earth get shorter, and the observer's clock
run slower than it should.

They would both be measuring what they see correctly.

You are an astronaut in space far away from any gravitational field, and you throw a rock as hard as you can. The rock will:
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

the rock will continue at the same speed unless it is affected by another force such as gravity and so if you threw it it will continue to move unless affected by a force

Explanation:

this is because Newton's first law states that every object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless compelled to change its state by the action of an external force.

A bus moving along a level road increases its speed from 20 m/s to 35 m/s in 15.0s. What is the car's acceleration?​
Ksju [112]

Explanation:

initial velocity U = 20m/s

Final velocity V = 35m/s

time = 15.0 secs

change in velocity = 35 - 15

= 20m/s

acceleration a = change in velocity/time V/t

a = (35-20)/15

a= 15/15

Hence, your acceleration is 1m/s^2
