<h2>a) Average velocity in first 4 seconds is 64 ft/s upward</h2><h2>b) Average velocity in second 4 seconds is 63.5 ft/s downward</h2>

Explanation:

a) Given S(t) = 76 + 128t − 16t²

    s(0) = 76 + 128 x 0 − 16 x 0² = 76 ft

    s(4) = 76 + 128 x 4 − 16 x 4² = 332 ft

    Displacement in 4 seconds = 332 - 76 = 256 ft

    Time = 4 - 0 = 4 s

    \texttt{Velocity = }\frac{256}{4}=64ft/s

    Average velocity in first 4 seconds is 64 ft/s upward

a) Given S(t) = 76 + 128t − 16t²

    s(4) = 76 + 128 x 4 − 16 x 4² = 332 ft

    s(8) = 76 + 128 x 8 − 16 x 8² = 78 ft

    Displacement in 4 seconds = 78 - 332 = -254 ft

    Time = 4 - 0 = 4 s

    \texttt{Velocity = }\frac{-254}{4}=-63.5ft/s

    Average velocity in second 4 seconds is 63.5 ft/s downward

Which list ranks these jobs in the STEM career cluster based on years of schooling required, from most to least? Biochemist → Ar
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

The correct option is;

Biochemist → Archivist → Civil Engineer → Engineering Technician

Explanation:

1) Biochemist require the completion of a science degree or applied science degree, while biochemist usually hold a PhD to perform research independently, while entry level positions in the profession require a masters or bachelors degree

The PhDs usually require about 5 years to complete, after obtaining the masters degree

2) The general educational requirement to become an archivist is a master's degree in the fields of library science, history, public administration, political science, or archival science, which requires the completion of a bachelors degree followed by the completion of the masters degree which is thus 4 to 6 years

3) Civil engineer title is awarded to holders of a bachelors degree in Civil Engineering which gives the strong mathematical and science background required in the profession usually. The Civil Engineering program duration is five years

4) The engineering technician consist of 8.2% with masters degree, 42.0% have bachelors degree, while it is also possible to become an engineering technician with a GED or a high school degree

Therefore, the usual duration of study to become an engineering technician is two years of an associate degree program.

Salt water has greater density than fresh water. A boat floats in both fresh water and in salt 12) water. Where is the buoyant f
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

in salt water

Explanation:

The buoyant force acting on a body depends on the volume of body immersed, density of liquid in which the body is immersed and acceleration due to gravity.

Buoyant force = Volume immersed x density of liquid x g

As the density of salt water is more than the fresh water so the buoyant force acting on the boat in salt water is more than the fresh water.
