The thing that pushes the object up while it is falling is air. This force is known as "air resistance".

When can thermal energy in a system move from lower to higher temperatures?

Fed [463]

Answer:

When the object in creases or decreases in temperature.

Explanation:

Heat flow moves energy from a higher temperature to a lower temperature. The bigger the difference in temperature between two objects, the faster heat flows between them. When temperatures are the same there is no change in energy due to heat flow. Radiation and Conduction are the two methods of heat transfer..

If you ran 15 km/h for 20 min, how much distance would you cover?

nikitadnepr [17]

Since we have 15 kilometers per hour, and we're looking for 20 minutes, let's set up proportions.
20/60 minutes = x/15
20/60 = 1/3, so let's leave that simplified.
1/3 = x/15
Look at the denominators, 3 to 15 is a factor of 5, so multiply the numerator by 5.
1 • 5 = 5, so you will cover 5 kilometers in 20 minutes.

I hope this helps!

A cruise ship is moving at constant speed through the water. The vacationers on the ship are eager to arrive at their next desti

MArishka [77]

Answer: 1. higher than it was before they started running

Explanation: As the vacationers run towards the back(stern) of the ship the exerting more pressure against the pressure exerted by the wave supporting the moving ship,the pressure exerted on the moving ship will be increased, leading to a slight increase in the speed of the ship compared to the speed before they started running towards the back(stern) of the ship.

Suppose that the resistance between the walls of a biological cell is 6.8 × 109 ω. (a) what is the current when the potential di

GenaCL600 [577]

(a) We can find the current flowing between the walls by using Ohm's law:
$I= \frac{\Delta V}{R}$
where $\Delta V=69 mV=0.069 V$ is the potential difference and $R=6.8\cdot 10^9 \Omega$ is the resistance. Substituting these values, we get
$I=1.01 \cdot 10^{-11} A$

(b) The total charge flowing between the walls is the product between the current and the time interval:
$Q=I \Delta t$
The problem says $\Delta t=0.86 s$ , so the total charge is
$Q=(1.01\cdot 10^{-11} A)(0.86 s)=8.73 \cdot 10^{-12} C$

The current consists of Na+ ions, each of them having a charge of $e=1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} C$ . To find the number of ions flowing, we can simply divide the total charge by the charge of a single ion:
$N= \frac{Q}{e} = \frac{8.73 \cdot 10^{-12}C}{1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C} = 5.45 \cdot 10^7 ions$
