When you look at this, you might not be sure which way to divide ...
Should you divide  6 by 5  or  5 by 6 ?

Here's a case where you can use your units to decide.

The question wants to know the 'period'.  That's a length of time,
so the answer needs to have units of time.

If you divide 'cycles' be 'time', you'll get  'cycles/second'.
That's Hz.  It's frequency, not time.

If you divide 'time' by 'cycles', you'll get 'seconds/cycle'.
That's time, and it's exactly the definition of 'period'.

            Period  =  (6 seconds) / (5 cycles)

                         =    (6 / 5)  seconds/cycle

                         =     1.2  seconds

What are three effect of force​

1. Can change the state of an object(rest to motion/ motion to rest)

2. May change the speed of an object if it is already moving.

3. May change the direction of motion of an object.

Explanation: A force acting on an object causes the object to change its shape or size, to start moving, to stop moving, to accelerate or decelerate.

Draw velocity-ime graph for uniform moion of an object , when initially body is at rest.
Klio2033 [76]
When the body is at rest, its speed is zero, and the graph lies on the x-axis.

When the body is in uniform motion, the speed is constant, and the graph is a horizontal line, parallel to the x-axis and some distance above it.

It's impossible to tell, based on the given information, how these two parts of the
graph are connected.  There must be some sloping (accelerated) portion of the graph
that joins the two sections, but it cannot be accounted for in either the statement
that the body is at rest or that it is in uniform motion, since acceleration ... that is,
any change of speed or direction ... is not 'uniform' motion'.

WITCHER [35]
Oxygenated blood that has oxygen in them while de-oxygenated blood has carbon dioxide. in which the oxygenated blood carries the oxygen throughout the body since that cells need oxygen to function. called "gas exchange." once the cells got their required oxygen. the carbon dioxide needs somewhere to go, thus having deoxygenated blood. and that carbon dioxide needs to get out of the body
