An airplane travels at 300 mi/h south for 2.00 h and then at 250 mi/h north for 750 miles. what is the average speed for the tri
iren2701 [21]
<span>Th find the average speed of a trip we need to dived the total distance by the total time. Let's find the total distance d. d = (300 mi/h)(2.00 h) + 750 miles d = 600 miles + 750 miles d = 1350 miles The total distance is 1350 miles Let's find the total time t. t = 2.00 hours + (750 mi / 250 mi/h) t = 2.00 hours + 3.00 hours t = 5.00 hours The total time of the trip is 5.00 hours. We can find the average speed. d / t = 1350 miles / 5.00 hours d / t = 270 miles/ hour The average speed of the trip is 270 mi/h (Note that the direction does not matter when we find the average speed.)</span>

uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

The answer to your question is:

Explanation:

There are two kinds of cell transport passive transportation and active transportation.

Passive transportation does not need energy because molecules move from higher concentration to lower concentration.

Active transportation needs energy because molecules moves against concentration.  

a. facilitated diffusion It's an example of passive transportation so this answer is wrong.

b. passive transport Molecules move in favor of concentration so this answer is wrong.

c. osmosis is another example of passive transport so this answer is wrong.

d. simple diffusion it's another example of passive transport, so it's wrong this answer.

e. active transport this is the right answer.
