Answer:

72 beats per minute

Explanation:

Heart beat causes the flow of blood round the body. This heart beat can be felt as pulse in the wrist or neck carotid artery. The heart rate which is measured in beats per minute (BPM) is used to determine the number of heart beats per minute.

You can calculate your BPM using the carotid artery found in the neck close to the windpipe.

Given that for 20 seconds, Bill had a total of 24 beats.

60 seconds = 1 minute.

Hence,  Bill's BPM = (24 beats per 20 seconds) * (60 seconds per minute) = 72 beats per minute

How do you find the velocity after a collision
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

In a collision, the velocity change is always computed by subtracting the initial velocity value from the final velocity value. If an object is moving in one direction before a collision and rebounds or somehow changes direction, then its velocity after the collision has the opposite direction as before.

What would happen if you place 2 Plane Mirrors parallel to each other?
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

No image will be observed.

Explanation:

Images that are created by mirrors are virtual images. This virtual image can only be seen by an observer. In this case, an infinite number of images or no image will be created here as both will be reflecting their own images. Light will continuously bounce back and forth reflecting the same image.
