To solve this exercise, the following speed equation must be applied:

 V = d / t (mi/hr)

 V: speed (mi/hr)

 d: distance (mi)

 t: time (s)

We know the distance (d= 5 miles) and the time (t= 0.2 hours), so we proceed to replace these values in the formula to calculate the lion’s speed:

 V = d / t

 V = 5 mi/0.2 hr

 V = 25 mi/hr

 The lion’s speed is 25 mi/hr, so the last option is the right answer

The ball has 7.35 joules of potential energy at position B. At position A, all of the energy changes to kinetic energy. The velo
Lina20 [59]
I assume that the ball is stationary (v=0) at point B, so its total energy is just potential energy, and it is equal to 7.35 J. 
At point A, all this energy has converted into kinetic energy, which is:
K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2
And since K=7.35 J, we can find the velocity, v:
v= \sqrt{ \frac{2K}{m} }= \sqrt{ \frac{2 \cdot 7.35 J}{1.5 kg} }=3.1 m/s

The summer camps had a field trip from the campus to Fragrance Hill. They traveled at an average speed of 65 km/h in the first 2
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

Explanation:

They traveled this distance in 2 parts, essentially. Part 1 had an average speed for a certain number of hours, part 2 had an average speed for a certain number of hours, and those 2 parts taken together took them a distance of 364 km. In equation form, that looks like this:

km/hr part 1 + km/hr part 2 = 364 km

Now we need to find each part on the left side of that equation. Part 1 first:

We traveled 65 km/hr for 2 hours, so that took us

65\frac{km}{hr}*2hr and canceling out the hour label, we have that in part 1 we got

65(2) = 130 km. Good. Now onto the second part, where our unknown is.

We traveled 78 km/hr the second part for x hours, so that took us

78\frac{km}{hr}*xhr and canceling out the hour label, we have that in part 2 we got

78x km. Now we can fill in the main equation (the one in bold print)

130 km + 78x km = 364 km and subtracting 130 km from both sides:

78x km = 234 km and dividing by 78 km:

x = 3 hours. Part 2 took 3 hours. Part 1 took 2 hours, so the whole trip took 5 hours.

Please help ASAP will mark brainliest How do we find the amount of uncertainty we should expect in our measurement of the period
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

The relative uncertainty gives the uncertainty as a percentage of the original value. Work this out with: Relative uncertainty = (absolute uncertainty ÷ best estimate) × 100%. So in the example above: Relative uncertainty = (0.2 cm ÷ 3.4 cm) × 100% = 5.9%. The value can therefore be quoted as 3.4 cm ± 5.9%.

Explanation:

hope it helps :)

At a particular instant the magnitude of the gravitational force exerted by a planet on one of its moons is 7 × 1021 N. Collapse
9966 [12]

Answer:

Fg = 4.2*10²² N

Explanation:

The gravitational force between any two masses, provided that can be approximated by point masses (comparing their diameters with the distance between them), obeys the Newton's Universal Law of Gravitation, which states that the force (always attractive) is proportional to the product of  the masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them (this as a consequence of our Universe being three-dimensional), as follows:

Fg =\frac{G*m1*m2}{r^{2}}

So, if one of the masses increases 6 times, the force between them will be directly 6 times larger, so the new magnitude of the force will be as follows:

Fg₂ = Fg₁*6 = 7*10²¹ N* 6 = 4.2*10²² N

(50 pts) How are beryllium and carbon made inside a star? <br> Thanks! :)
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

Stars create new elements in their cores bu squeezing elements together in a process called unclear fusion. First stars fuse hydrogen atoms into heluim. Helium atorm then fuse to create berylluim and so on until fusion in the star’s core has created every element up to icon.
