Answer:

You will fall towards the front of the bus i.e towards its front seat

Explanation:

When the bus is moving, you are supposed to be in that motion. Your body is experiencing a forward force as the bus is moving forward So when bus stops suddenly your inertia does not allow you to stay in that standing position it will let you move forrward to maintain your inertia so you will feel a forward push. (If you were sitting on a seat with seatbelt on you that seatbelt will make you come back when car or bus stops.)

Answer:

You will fly forward in the bus until you hit something.

Explanation:

While standing there on the bus, you are traveling at the same speed as the bus. If the bus suddenly stops, you will still be traveling at the same speed you started with. That is until you hit something hard enough or big enough to stop you.

Pete is driving down 7th Street. He drives 300 meters in 18 seconds. Assuming he does not speed up or slow down, what is his spe

Korolek [52]

Answer:

16.67m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Distance Pete drove = 300m

Time taken = 18s

Unknown:

Speed = ?

Solution:

Speed is the distance traveled per unit of time.

It is mathematically expressed as;

Speed = $\frac{distance}{time}$

Insert the parameters and solve;

Speed = $\frac{300}{18}$ = 16.67m/s

1) draw a simple circuit with a voltage source and four resistors wired in series

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

In this circuit (see attachment #1), we have:

- A voltage source: in this case, we choose a battery. A voltage source is a device producing an electromotive force (in a battery, this is done by means of a chemical reaction), which is responsible for "pushing" the electrons along the circuit and creating a current. The electromotive force (emf) of the battery is also called voltage, and it is indicated with the letter V.

- Four resistors: a resistor is a device which opposes to the flow of current. The property that describes by "how much" the resistor "opposes" to the flow of current is called "resistance", and it is indicated with the letter R.

- In this circuit, the 4 resistors are in series. Resistors are said to be in series when they are connected along the same branch of the circuit, so that the same current flow across each of them.

- For resistors in series, the equivalent resistance of the circuit is given by the sum of the individual resistances:

$R=R_1+R_2+...+R_n$

In this circuit (see attachment #2), we have:

- A voltage source: as before, we have chosen a battery, providing an electromotive force to the circuit

- Three resistors wired in parallel. Resistors are said to be connected in parallel when they are connected along different branches, but with their terminals connected to the same point, so that each of them has the same potential difference across it.

- For resistors in parallel, the equivalent resistance of the circuit is calculated using the formula:

$\frac{1}{R}=\frac{1}{R_1}+\frac{1}{R_2}+...+\frac{1}{R_n}$

In this circuit (see attachment #3), we have:

- A voltage source (again, we have choosen a battery)

- Three resistors, of which:

-- 2 of them are connected in parallel with each other

-- the 3rd one it is in series with the first two

If we call $R_1,R_2$ the resistances of the first 2 resistors in parallel, their equivalent resistance is:

$\frac{1}{R_{12}}=\frac{1}{R_1}+\frac{1}{R_2}\\\rightarrow R_{12}=\frac{R_1 R_2}{R_1+R_2}$

Then, these two resistors are connected in series with resistor $R_3$ ; and so, the total resistance of this circuit will be:

$R=R_{12}+R_3=\frac{R_1R_2}{R_1+R_2}+R_3=\frac{R_1R_2+R_3(R_1+R_2)}{R_1+R_2}$

In this circuit (see attachment #4), we have:

- A voltage source (again, a battery)

- We have 6 resistors, which are arranged as follows:

-- Two branches each containing 3 resistors

-- The two branches are in parallel with each other

So, the total resistance of the two branches are:

$R_{123}=R_1+R_2+R_3$

$R_{456}=R_4+R_5+R_6$

And since the two branches are in parallel, their total resistance will be:

$\frac{1}{R}=\frac{1}{R_{123}}+\frac{1}{R_{456}}\\\rightarrow R=\frac{R_{123}R_{456}}{R_{123}+R_{456}}=\frac{(R_1+R_2+R_3)(R_4+R_5+R_6)}{R_1+R_2+R_3+R_4+R_5+R_6}$

Which list ranks these jobs in the STEM career cluster based on years of schooling required, from most to least? Biochemist → Ar

tigry1 [53]

Answer:

The correct option is;

Biochemist → Archivist → Civil Engineer → Engineering Technician

Explanation:

1) Biochemist require the completion of a science degree or applied science degree, while biochemist usually hold a PhD to perform research independently, while entry level positions in the profession require a masters or bachelors degree

The PhDs usually require about 5 years to complete, after obtaining the masters degree

2) The general educational requirement to become an archivist is a master's degree in the fields of library science, history, public administration, political science, or archival science, which requires the completion of a bachelors degree followed by the completion of the masters degree which is thus 4 to 6 years

3) Civil engineer title is awarded to holders of a bachelors degree in Civil Engineering which gives the strong mathematical and science background required in the profession usually. The Civil Engineering program duration is five years

4) The engineering technician consist of 8.2% with masters degree, 42.0% have bachelors degree, while it is also possible to become an engineering technician with a GED or a high school degree

Therefore, the usual duration of study to become an engineering technician is two years of an associate degree program.

The _____ deflects these winds to the right in the northern hemisphere and to the Southern Hemisphere

almond37 [142]

Answer:

Coriolis Effect

Explanation:

The Coriolis effect is responsible for the deflection of winds to the right in the Northern hemisphere and to the right in the Southern hemisphere. It is an effect that occurs because of the rotation of the earth around its axis.

The implication of this is that in areas of low pressure in the Northern hemisphere, winds tend to blow in anticlockwise direction, and in areas of high pressure, it blows in a clockwise direction. The opposite of this happens in the Southern hemisphere.
