Answer:

Average Velocity = 120 mi/h

Explanation:

First we need to calculate the time taken by Connie to complete first half from Phoenix to flagstaff. So, we use:

s₁ = v₁t₁

where,

s₁ = distance from Phoenix to flagstaff = 180 miles

v₁ = speed of travel from Phoenix to flagstaff = 180 mi/h

t₁ = time taken to travel from Phoenix to flagstaff = ?

Therefore,

180 miles = (180 m/h)t₁

t₁ = 1 h

Now, we calculate the time for the return trip

s₂ = v₂t₂

where,

s₂ = distance from flagstaff to Phoenix = 180 miles

v₂ = speed of travel from flagstaff to Phoenix = 90 mi/h

t₂ = time taken to travel from flagstaff to Phoenix = ?

Therefore,

180 miles = (90 m/h)t₂

t₂ = 2 h

Now, we find total time:

t = t₁ + t₂

t = 1 h + 2 h

t = 3 h

and the total distance was:

s = s₁ +s₂

s = 180 mi + 180 mi

s = 360 mi

So, the average velocity will be:

Average Velocity = s/t

Average Velocity = 360 mi/3 h

<u>Average Velocity = 120 mi/h</u>

Range of motion is the distance an object can travel when separated from another object. Please select the best answer from the
Lady_Fox [76]
Based on the given statement above, the correct answer would be FALSE. It is not true that range of motion is the distance an object can travel when separated from another object because range of motion or ROM is the distance--linear or angular--<span>that a movable object may normally travel while properly ATTACHED (not separated) to another. Hope this answer helps.</span>

Light is incident along the normal to face AB of a glass prism of refractive index 1.54. Find αmax, the largest value the angle
marusya05 [52]

To solve this problem it is necessary to use the concepts related to Snell's law.

Snell's law establishes that reflection is subject to

n_1sin\theta_1 = n_2sin\theta_2

Where,

\theta = Angle between the normal surface at the point of contact

n = Indices of refraction for corresponding media

The total internal reflection would then be given by

n_1 sin\theta_1 = n_2sin\theta_2

(1.54) sin\theta_1 = (1.33)sin(90)

sin\theta_1 = \frac{1.33}{1.54}

\theta = sin^{-1}(\frac{1.33}{1.54})

\theta = 59.72\°

Therefore the \alpha_{max} would be equal to

\alpha = 90\°-\theta

\alpha = 90-59.72

\alpha = 30.27\°

Therefore the largest value of the angle α is 30.27°

Why are many mitochondria needed in cells that move, like muscle cells?
Deffense [45]
Muscle cells have to use a lot of energy and the Mitochondria is known as the "power house" of the cell... I would say the number of mitochondria needed is increased because more power and energy is being used in that cell than a normal one (idk if this helps or if that's the answer you were looking for)

How much heat is needed to bring 12.0 g of water from 28.3 °C to 43.87 °C, if the specific heat capacity of water is 4.184 J/(g•
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

Heat capacity, Q = 781.74 Joules

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 12g

Initial temperature = 28.3°C

Final temperature = 43.87°C

Specific heat capacity of water = 4.184J/g°C

To find the quantity of heat needed?

Heat capacity is given by the formula;

Q = mcdt

Where;

Q represents the heat capacity or quantity of heat.

m represents the mass of an object.

c represents the specific heat capacity of water.

dt represents the change in temperature.

dt = T2 - T1

dt = 43.87 - 28.3

dt = 15.57°C

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Q = 12*4.184*15.57

Q = 781.74 Joules
