The answer is so that everyone is measuring the same distance and counting that distance as the same everywhere. one example from real life why it is important to use standard units is the loss of the NASA mars orbiter. some people decided that the units were to be in metric and others thought that the units were in imperial (english) system. so the orbiter was lost.
let's eliminate some choices
A. to allow for consistientcy with measurement data:
not really, just make sure the instruments are accurate.
B. to use tools marked in customary units: this could be true because a custom is something that is accepted in a wide area and if it is standard, then it is customary so b is the answer
C. so they can keep measurement data secret: nope
D. to record with easier abbreviations: not really
the answer is B
I think that the answer is A
There is no net vertical force.
The 20N upward is exactly balanced by the 20N downward.
There IS a net horizontal force.
(22N to the right) + (14N to the left) = 8 N to the right.
The net force acting on this object is 8 newtons to the right.
Answer:
92 km
Explanation:
Total distance = 6 x 58 = 348 km
Distance travelled in first 4 hours
= 4 x 64
= 256 km
Distance for rest of journey = 348 - 256 = 92 km
