Answer:

Explanation:

If a cat walk 100m East, this means that it is walking in the positive x direction, the distance will therefore be +100m

If it turns around and walks 25 m west, the direction of movement is in the negative x direction i.e -25m

Taking the sum;

Displacement = +100m - 25m

Displacement of the cat = 75m

hence the cats displacement is 75m

When energy is transferred to air, what happens to the particles of air? (1 point) They move slower. They move faster. They cool

zubka84 [21]

This question is a critical question. as we all know, when energy is added to any state of water, the particles move faster. and when energy is taken away from any state of water, the particles reduce speed. same with the particles of air. when energy is added; they move faster. when energy is removed; they move slower. so the answer is they move faster

If the density of an object is 5.2 g/cm3, and volume is 3.7 cm3, what is its mass

netineya [11]

Here's the equation you use: Density = mass/volume

1) 5.2g/cm^3 = m/3.7cm^3

2) m = 5.2g/cm^3 x 3.7cm^3

3) m = 19.24g

You can check the answer by plugging it in

19.24g/3.7cm^3
= 5.2g/cm^3

Which pair of equations can describe the path of a particle moving with an acceleration that is perpendicular to the velocity of

antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

The question clearly describes the circular motion.

The circular motion equation is

$a_{radial} = \frac{v^2}{r}$

The path of the particle is circular.

Explanation:

In circular motion, the radial acceleration is always towards the center and constant in magnitude. Furthermore, the velocity of the circular motion is always tangential to the circle, that is it is always perpendicular to the radius, hence the acceleration.
