Answer:

17.64 km/h

Explanation:

mass of car, m = 1000 kg

Kinetic energy of car, K = 1.2 x 10^4 J

Let the speed of car is v.

Use the formula for kinetic energy.

K = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}

By substituting the values

1.2\times 10^{4} = \frac{1}{2}\times 1000\times v^{2}

v = 4.9 m/s

Now convert metre per second into km / h

We know that

1 km = 1000 m

1 h = 3600 second

So, v = \left (\frac{4.9}{1000}   \right )\times \left ( \frac{3600}{1} \right )

v = 17.64 km/h

Thus, the reading of speedometer is 17.64 km/h.

A cat with mass 4.0 kg jumps down to the floor from a bookcase 2.0 m high. What is the cat's change in
eduard

Answer: -7J

Explanation:

To determine the change in potential energy, use the equation ΔPE=mgΔh

Δ

PE=mg

Δ

h

, where m is the mass, g= 9.8 m/s2

g= 9.8 m/s

2

, and Δh is the change in height. Hence, we have that the potential energy PE=4.0 kg×9.8 m/s2×-2.0 m=-78 J

PE=4.0 kg

×

9.8 m/s

2

×

-2.0 m=-78 J

. To verify that this is correct, note that since the cat changes the potential energy to kinetic energy by jumping, the potential energy decreases. Hence, the potential energy should be negative.

The rule for the sequence is: You add 4/6 each time
5/6 +4/6 = 1 1/2
1 1/2 + 4/6 = 2 1/6
2 1/6 +4/6 = 2 5/6

What is gene-environment interactions?
Yuliya22 [10]
Gene–environment interaction (or genotype–environment interaction or G×E) is when two different genotypes respond to environmental variation in different ways. A norm of reaction is a graph that shows the relationship between genes and environmental factors when phenotypic differences are continuous.
