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

Question 6
Margaret [11]

Limestone and dolomite are the rocks present in the locations which leads to the formation of caves.

<h2>Formation of caves</h2>

The type of rocks that once existed in these  locations are limestone and dolomite whereas the pH of the nearby groundwater is slightly acidic which is responsible for the formation of caves. Caves are formed by the dissolution of limestone due to acid rain.

<h3>Acid rain</h3>

Rainwater reacts with carbon dioxide from the air and percolates through the soil, which turns into a weak acid. This slowly dissolves out the limestone which become turn to form caves so we can conclude that Limestone and dolomite are the rocks present in the locations which leads to the formation of caves.

Can anyone help me with this please​
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

1270 J

Explanation:

Recall that the mechanical energy of a system is the addition of the Potential energy and the Kinetic energy at any given time.

As the skier descends, potential energy is converted into kinetic energy, but the total mechanical energy should remain the same.

We see that it is not the case, so that difference is what has gone into thermal energy;  19500 J - 18230 J = 1270 J

What are disadvantages of using fossil fuels to generate electricity? Check all that apply.
laila [671]
Fossil fuels are non-renewable resources and create greenhouse gases.  While cheaper now to  burn fossil fuels, within fifty years we will run out and have to turn to other sources of energy.  Hope this helps!!!

You are moving at a speed 2/3 c toward randy when randy shines a light toward you. at what speed do you see the light approachin
yarga [219]
I see the light moving exactly at speed equal to c.

In fact, the second postulate of special relativity states that:
"The speed of light in free space has the same value c<span> in all inertial frames of reference."
</span>
The problem says that I am moving at speed 2/3 c, so my motion is a uniform motion (constant speed). This means I am in an inertial frame of reference, so the speed of light in this frame must be equal to c.
