Biology

Egg cells are considerably larger than sperm cells because they carry the cytoplasm and organelles necessary for cell division and growth to begin, while sperm cells are basically a cell nucleus and a tail.

A car traveling at 60 mph has how much more energy than a car going at 20 mph? K.E. increases by a factor of there is no increas
inn [45]

Answer:

Assuming that the masses of the cars are the same

9 times

Explanation:

Kinetic energy can be computed using the formula:

KE = \dfrac{mv^{2}}{2}

Where:

KE = Kinetic energy

m = mass

v = velocity

As you can see in your problem, the velocity of the the first car mentioned is 3 times faster.

Looking at the the formula, velocity is raised to two (2). So if we put it in terms of equations this is how it will look:

Let v = velocity of the slower car

Car 1: velocity = (3v)

KE=\dfrac{mv^{2}}{2}

KE=\dfrac{(m)(3v)^{2}}{2}

KE=\dfrac{(m)9v^{2}}{2}

The increase is by a factor of 9.

Describe the distribution of active volcanoes,earthquake,epicenters,and major mountain belts
9966 [12]
The main zone for these phenomena in at least  the western world is the Circum-Pacific Ring of Fire Belt. This is exemplified by the Western Cordillera in BC (Rockies and Coast Mts) in BC with a few inactive volcanoes, the volcanoes on the western margin of the US such as in Northern Californa and the Sierra Nevada, and the volcanoes in western and central Mexico and then the Andes with its' frequent western volcanoes and then in Japan and Indonesia with their volcanoes as well. Earthquakes are common in this Belt and occur due to plate movements including subduction below the BC coast and under the Andes.
