Answer:

c. Only the linear acceleration is zero.

Explanation:

The linear acceleration is defined as the rate of change of linear velocity. Since the bicycle is moving in the same direction, with the same speed, without speeding up or slowing down. Therefore, there will be no change in linear velocity and as a result, linear acceleration will be zero.

The angular acceleration is the rate of change of angular velocity. Since the angular velocity is changing its direction constantly. Therefore, it has a certain component of acceleration at all times called centripetal acceleration.

Therefore, the correct option is:

<u>c. Only the linear acceleration is zero.</u>

In this reaction diagram which part represents the doffrence in energy between the reactants and the products?
Annette [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is - option C. G.

Explanation:

In this reaction diagram, there is a representation of the reaction profile. The reaction profile shows the change that takes place during a reaction in the energy of reactants or substrate and products. In this profile, activation energy looks like a hump in the line, and the minimum energy required to initiate the reaction.

The overall energy of the reaction, including or excluding activation energy depends on the nature of the reaction if it is exothermic or endothermic. and products are represented by the G which shows the difference between the energy of the reactants and products.

which process was found after wegeners time, helped scientists find out how the continents actually move.
Genrish500 [490]
I don't quite know what you're asking so I'll just go on a rant :) Wegener created and supported the continental drift theory, which stated that all of the continents once formed a super continent called Pangea. No one at the time believed in the theory though so he spent the rest of his life trying to find evidence to prove it. However, after he died scientists began to find information that supported his theory. When scientists began to study Earth's surface and the layers below, the theory of the tectonic plates was formed. This theory stated that Earth's crust, the lithosphere, was divided into twelve moving plates. This theory did in fact prove that Wegener's theory was correct. Another theory that proved Wegener's theory to be true was the process of Sea Floor Spreading. This theory stated that at divergent plate boundaries, new ocean floor was being created and the old was being pushed away from the boundary, the old sea floor would then be pushed to deep sea trenches created by convergent plate boundaries and essentially recycled back into the Earth. I hope this helped, sorry it is so long :)

Which term describes the difference in electrical charge across a membrane? View Available Hint(s) Which term describes the diff
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

Membrane potential

Explanation:

Membrane potential is describes the difference in electrical charge across a membrane.                                                                                                              

The difference in potential between exterior  and  interior of the  biological cell is known as Membrane potential.Generally it is denoted by  millivolts like mV and varies from -80 V to -40 V.

So the answer is Membrane potential
