What is the mistake in this sentence? "Learning to fly a plane and swimming were two skills Lucy really wanted to learn."

English

Answer and Explanation:

There is the same error repeated in two places in this sentence. This is because the sentence needs conjunctions before the verb "to fly" and before the word "lucy". Conjunctions are words that allow connections between the clauses of a sentence, allowing them to be read with fluidity and cohesion. Without these conjunctions, sentences are incorrect and incoherent.

The sentence written with the conjunctions correctly would be:

"Learning how to fly a plane and swimming were two skills that Lucy really wanted to learn."

Can you ever be too ambitious?<br> yes or no? explain why or why not
Phoenix [80]
Webster's dictionary defines ambition as: "<span>a strong desire to do or to achieve something, typically requiring determination and hard work." with that being said, there is not necessarily any way to have too much ambition. the most important though, it to have a purpose. Billy Sunday, a preacher from a time passed, once said, "More men fail through lack of purpose than lack of talent." he is saying that anyone can do anything, given that they put their mind to it. Philippians 4:13 states: "For i can do all things through Christ who strengthens me."</span>

How does kinetic energy affect the stopping distance of a small vehicle compared to a large vehicle?
guajiro [1.7K]
It takes less energy to stop a small vehicle compared to a large vehicle because there is less energy or force behind the vehicle making it go. thus the stopping distance is shorter for a smaller vehicle than a larger vehicle, assuming they were originally moving the same speed.
