Answer: A. 24,000,000,000 km

Explanation: An Astronomical Unit commonly abbreviated as AU is the average distance between Earth and the Sun and is about 150 million kilometers.

Astronomical unit is mainly used to measure distances within our solar system.

1 AU is equal to $150\times 10^6$ km

Thus 160 AU is equal to $\frac{150\times 10^6}{1}\times 160=24000\times 10^6km=24000000000km$

It takes you 5 min to walk with an average velocity of .75 m/s to the north from the parking lot to the entrance of the amusemen

skad [1K]

A displacement is a vector quantity that takes into account the shortest distance from the starting point to the endpoint.

The given above gave a time interval in minutes which needs to be converted to seconds. Given that each minute is 60 seconds, 5 minutes equal 300 seconds. To determine the distance, multiply time with speed. The product is 225 m.

Thus, the displacement is 225 m.

A 62 kg skier is moving at 6.5 m/s on frictionless horizontal snow-covered plateau when she encounters a rough patch 3.50 m long

Degger [83]

Answer:

(A). The work done by friction in crossing the patch is -637.98 J.

(B). The speed of skier is 10.57 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of skier = 62 kg

Speed = 6.5 m/s

Length = 3.50 m

Coefficient kinetic friction = 0.30

Height = 2.5 m

(A) we need to calculate the work done by friction in crossing the patch

Using formula of work done

$W=-\mu mg\times l$

Put the value into the formula

$W=-0.30\times62\times9.8\times3.50$

$W=-637.98\ J$

The work done by friction in crossing the patch is -637.98 J.

(B) we need to calculate the speed of skier

Using conservation of energy

$K.E_{i}+U_{i}-W_{friction}=K.E_{f}+U_{f}$

$\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{1}^2+mgh-\mu mgl=\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{2}^2+U_{f}$

Final potential energy is zero

So, $\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{1}^2+mgh-\mu mgl=\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{2}^2$

$\dfrac{1}{2}v_{2}^2=\dfrac{1}{2}v_{1}^2+gh-\mu gl$

Put the value into the formula

$\dfrac{1}{2}v_{2}^2=\dfrac{1}{2}\times6.5^2+9.8\times2.5+0.30\times9.8\times3.50$

$v_{2}=\sqrt{2\times55.915}$

$v_{2}=10.57\ m/s$

The speed of skier is 10.57 m/s.

Hence, (A).The work done by friction in crossing the patch is -637.98 J.

(B).The speed of skier is 10.57 m/s.

A hiker travels south along a straight line path for 1.5 hours with an average velocity of 0.75 km/hr, then travels south for 2.

ANTONII [103]

Distance travelled in south direction= 1.5hr*0.75km/hr= 1.125km
Distance travlled in north direction= 0.90*2.5=2.25
Net displacement = 2.25-1.125= 1.125 to the north

What is one result of meiosis?

kogti [31]

Answer:

meiosis is a kind of cell division which occurs in special cells like gametes in which the daughter cells have half the numbers of chromosomes than the parent cells .

hence we can say that by this cell division 2 haploid cells are formed.
