17.3 would be the correct answer.

Oduvanchick [21]3 years ago
4 0

Answer: The correct answer is option(D).

Explanation:

Distance travel by car in north of east = 20 miles

In a triangle ABC

Cos\theta =\frac{BC}{AC}

Cos 30^o=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}=\frac{BC}{20}

BC=17.32

The east component of the car’s displacement to the nearest tenth of a mile 17.32 miles.

Explain<br> (0) what is meant by regeneration,<br> (ii) why an analogue signal cannot be regenerated
Kamila [148]

Explanation:

<h3>1.) Regeneration is the natural process of replacing or restoring damaged or missing cells, tissues, organs, and even entire body parts to full function in plants and animals.</h3>

2.) When noise is added to analogue signals, it usually sounds like background hiss. Such noise can not be removed so the original clean signal can not be re-created or re-generated.

Astronomers discover an exoplanet, a planet obriting a star other than the Sun, that has an orbital period of 3.27 Earth years i
Naddik [55]

Answer:

  r = 3.787 10¹¹ m

Explanation:

We can solve this exercise using Newton's second law, where force is the force of universal attraction and centripetal acceleration

    F = ma

    G m M / r² = m a

The centripetal acceleration is given by

    a = v² / r

For the case of an orbit the speed circulates (velocity module is constant), let's use the relationship

    v = d / t

The distance traveled Esla orbits, in a circle the distance is

    d = 2 π r

Time in time to complete the orbit, called period

     v = 2π r / T

Let's replace

    G m M / r² = m a

    G M / r² = (2π r / T)² / r

    G M / r² = 4π² r / T²

    G M T² = 4π² r3

     r = ∛ (G M T² / 4π²)

Let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

     T = 3.27 and (365 d / 1 y) (24 h / 1 day) (3600s / 1h)

     T = 1.03 10⁸ s

Let's calculate

      r = ∛[6.67 10⁻¹¹ 3.03 10³⁰ (1.03 10⁸) 2) / 4π²2]

      r = ∛ (21.44 10³⁵ / 39.478)

      r = ∛(0.0543087 10 36)

      r = 0.3787 10¹² m

      r = 3.787 10¹¹ m

Answer:

because

Explanation:

streasm dont flow horizontal because if it did then that would be breaking all laws of physics and we know that what goes up must com down but water cant flow upstream only down if it does flow horizontally then it would either be between two hills or in a plains
