Dr Tony Allision hypothesize that the sickle cell disease is connected with malaria. The disease carried by the mosquito is more common in coastal area and near Lake Victoria while it is less common in the highlands. He made a further hypothesis that sickle cell disease is common in areas where malaria is also common.

Suppose you throw a rock off a cliff on Earth with an initial horizontal velocity of 3 m/s. Assuming minimal drag and no wind, t
Salsk061 [2.6K]

The horizontal velocity D. remains constant throughout the fall.

Explanation:

The motion of the rock off the cliff is a projectile motion, which consists of two independent motions:

  • A horizontal uniform motion. Since there are no forces acting along the horizontal direction (we consider the air drag to be negligible), the acceleration along this direction is zero, so the horizontal component of the velocity is constant
  • An accelerated motion with constant acceleration. There is one force acting along the vertical direction, the force of gravity, which is constant so the rock experiences a constant acceleration (downward) of magnitude g=9.8 m/s^2 (acceleration of gravity). This means that the vertical component of the velocity keeps changing.

Here in this problem, we are only interested in the horizontal velocity. We said that the horizontal acceleration of the rock is zero: therefore, the horizontal velocity of the rock remains constant during the fall. (if the air drag was not negligible, then it would affect the horizontal velocity, which would decrease as the rock falls).

While playing a scavenger hunt game, Anthony walks 48.0 m to the south and then walks 12.0 m to the west. What single straight-l
Alenkasestr [34]
As these are distances created by moving in a straight line, using a trigonometric analysis can solve the missing single straight-line displacement. Looking at the 48m and 12m movements as legs of a triangle, obtaining the hypotenuse using the pythagorean theorem will yield us the correct answer.
This is shown below:

c^2 = 48^2 + 12^2
c = sqrt(2304 + 144)
c = sqrt(2448)
c = 49.48 m

To obtain the angle at which Anthony walks 49.48, we obtain the arc tangent of (12/48). This is shown below:

arc tan (12/48) =14.04 degrees.

Therefore, Anthony could have walked 49.48 m towards the S 14.04 W direction.

A parallel-plate capacitor is constructed of two square plates, size L×L, separated by distance d. The plates are given charge ±
gladu [14]

Answer:

E(final)/E(initial)=2

Explanation:

Applying the law of gauss to two parallel plates with  charge density equal σ:

E=\sigma/\epsilon_{o}=Q/(L^{2}*\epsilon_{o})\\

So, if the charge is doubled the Electric field is doubled too
