Answer:

the earth gravity

Explanation:

Gravitational attraction provides the centripetal force needed to keep planets in orbit around the Sun and all types of satellite in orbit around the Earth. The Earth's gravity keeps the Moon orbiting us.

Arunner starts from rest and accelerates uniformly to a speed of 8.0 meters per
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

2.0 m/s/s

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object is the rate of change of velocity of the object.

Mathematically, it is given by:

a=\frac{v-u}{t}

where

u is the initial velocity

v is the final velocity

t is the time taken for the velocity to change from u to v

Acceleration is a vector, so it has both a magnitude and a direction.

For the runner in this problem, we have:

u = 0 is the initial velocity (he starts from rest)

v = 8.0 m/s is the final velocity

t = 4.0 s is the time taken

Substituting, we find

a=\frac{8.0-0}{4.0}=2.0 m/s^2

The parents genotypes can be described as incomplete dominance since each parent provides a different allele of the given gene and none is dominating.

Heterozygous genotype is a process where by an offspring inherits different forms of a particular gene from each parent. .

Looking at the Punnett square, it is oblivious that the offspring inherited different version of the parents genes. This is shown by the presence of the two different letters indicated as Tt for all the four boxes in the Punnett square.

Thus, we can conclude that each parent provides a different allele of the given gene and none of the parents gene is dominating.

An airplane pilot flies due west at a speed of 216 km/hr with respect to the air. After flying for a half an hour, the pilot fin
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

speed wind  Vw = 54.04 km / h   θ = 87.9º

Explanation:

We have a speed vector composition exercise

In the half hour the airplane has traveled X = 108 km to the west, but is located at coordinated 119 km west and 27 km south

Let's add the vectors in each coordinate axis

   

X axis (East-West)

      -Xvion - Xw = -119

      Xw = -Xavion + 119

      Xw = 119 -108

      Xwi = 1 km

Calculate the speed for time of  t = 0.5 h

     Vwx = Xw / t

     Vwx= 1 /0.5

     Vwx = - 2 km / h

Y Axis (North-South)

    Y plane - Yi = -27

    Y plane = 0

    Yw = 27 km

    Vwy = 27 /0.5

    Vwy = 54 km / h

Let's use the Pythagorean theorem and trigonometry to compose the answer

 Vw = √ (Vwx² + Vwy²)

  Vw = R 2² + 54²

  Vw = 54.04 km / h

  tan θ = Vwy / Vwx

  tan θ = 54/2 = 27

  θ = Tan⁻¹ 1 27

  θ = 87.9º

The speed direction is 87. 9th measure In the third quadrant of the X axis in the direction 90-87.9 = 2.1º  west from the south

How can you use the position-time graphs for two in-line skaters to determine if and when one in-line skater will pass the other
Jet001 [13]

Explanation:

Position-time graphs measure/express the position of a skater over time relative to the start or finish of the race (depends on how it is used). Note: are the skaters in line vertically or horizontally? Like is one directly behind the other or are they next to each other?

If the two skaters are in line horizontally with each other, then their position will be the same relative to the start or finish of the race. This means if one passes the other one, the position would be different for all times after they pass. On the graph, it would look like one single line at the start (as position is same) which splits into 2 (representing the new difference in position due to 1 passing the other.

If the two skaters are in line vertically, their lines on the graph will appear parallel to each other (assuming they are going same speed) because the position is changing at the same rate, one is just reaching the same point after the other. If the skater behind overtakes the one in front. The lines on the graph will cross and continue either in parallel but with the other line on top to represent the moment where their position is the same right before they pass and after, where the second skater is now in front.

Hope this helped!

zavuch27 [327]

The base unit of length in the international system of units is the: meter (m)

<h3>Meter</h3>

The meter, ( symbol: m ) is the SI unit of length. It is derived by taking the fixed numerical value of the speed of light in vacuum c to be 299 792 458 when expressed in the unit m s-1

<h3>International system of unit ( SI ) base units</h3>

The SI base units are the standard units of measurement defined which is defined by the International System of Units (SI) for the seven base quantities of what is now known as the International System of quantities:
