A whole potato must be cooked from outside in, just like a potato cut into slices.

however, with a potato cut into slices, there is a greater surface area, so there is more "outside" and less inside. as a result, the sliced potato cooks faster.

2. A person began running due east and covered 15 kilometers in 2.0 hours. What is the average velocity of the person?
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

7.5 km/h (2.1 m/s) due east

Explanation:

The average velocity of the person is given by:

v=\frac{d}{t}

where

d is the displacement

t is the time taken

In this problem,

d = 15 km is the displacement

t = 2.0 h is the time elapsed

so the average velocity is

v=\frac{15 km}{2.0 h}=7.5 km/h

and the direction is the same as the displacement (east).

We can also convert the velocity into SI units (m/s). We have:

d = 15 km = 15,000 m

t = 2.0 h * 3600 s/h = 7200 s

v=\frac{15,000 m}{7200 s}=2.1 m/s

2. If you want 0. 250 a (250 milliamps) to flow around a circuit with a resistance of 400 ohms, what voltage do you need?
grigory [225]

Answer:

0.000625 V

Explanation:

The formula linking current , resistance and voltage is :

V = I/R

Voltage = Current / Resistance

Now we substitute values given in question :

Voltage = 0.250 / 400

Voltage (V) = 0.000625

Our final answer is 0.000625 V

Hope this helped and have a good day

The most precise measurement of the speed of light in vacuum is 299,792,458 m/s. Which of the following values would you use to
Luda [366]

Answer:

v = 3.00 x 10⁸ m/s

Explanation:

given,

speed of light in vacuum = 299,792,458 m/s

speed of light in scientific notation to three significant figures

v = 2.99792458  x  10⁸ m/s

by rounding off the speed to three significant figure.

v = 3.00 x 10⁸ m/s

On the fourth place the value is greater than 5 so, on the third place 1 will be added.

now, the speed with three significant figure comes out to be

v = 3.00 x 10⁸ m/s
