Answer:1) the total distance is the sum of the two distances

60 km +  45 km = 105 km

2) The displacement is the net movement, or the difference between the initial position and the final position

Call x the initial position, then the final position is x + [60km - 45km]

And the displacement is x + (60km - 45km) - x =60km -45 km = 15 km

A train's velocity is slowly decreasing as it approaches a station. About 1 km before it reaches the station, several stowaways
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

Increases

Explanation:

From Newton's second law:

F = ma

If F stays the same and m decreases, then a increases.

Therefore, the magnitude of the train's acceleration increases (the acceleration becomes more negative).

Runner A is initially 6.0 km west of a flagpole and is running with a constant velocity of 9.0 km/h due east. Runner B is initia
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

From the data we know that runner A and runner B are 11 km apart from the start because (6+5) km

So the runner from the east direction has distance as unknown km, rate= 9 k/h ; time= d/r=x/9 hr

So runner towards the west will be

distance = 11-x, rate= 8 k/h, time = d/r = (11-x)/8

So equating east and west time we have

x/9= (11-x)/8

8x=99-9x

17x=99

x=5.92 km

That is the distance covered by runner towards the east and he will meet the runner toward the west at

6-5.92=0.08 km west of the flagpole.

Help me understand why 5G cell phones and cell phone towers do not cause cancer even with prolonged exposure and are not harmful
Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

I'm not really sure as far as cell phone towers, but 5G hasn't published any safety tests, so we don't know for sure whether or not this would be harmful/cancer causing. The lack of evidence in either direction may be why we can't say definitively that it is safe or not harmful. Hope this helps.
