An ant is crawling along a yardstick that is pointed with the 0-inch mark to the east and the 36-inch mark to the west. It start

s at the 6-inch mark, crawls to the 19-inch mark, then moves to the 7-inch mark. What was the total distance the ant traveled?

Answer:

it moves 25 inches.

Explanation:

the east west bit isn't important, ignore it. if an ant starts at 6 then moves to 19 then we need to subtract 19 from 6, that's 13. then it moves to 7. the difference between 19 and 7 is 12. add that to 13 and you get 25. it's important to remember that there is no such thing as negative distance. if it moved, then it counts.

A ball of mass m is thrown into the air in a 45° direction of the horizon, after 3 seconds the ball is seen in a direction 30° f
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

Velocity (magnitude) is 98.37 m/s

Explanation:

We use the vertical component of the initial velocity, which is:

v_{0y}=v_0*sin(45)=\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}v_0

Using kinematics expression of vertical velocity (in y direction) for an accelerated motion (constant acceleration, which is gravity):

v_{y}=v_{0y}+a*t=\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}v_0-9.8t

Now we need to find v_y as a function of v_0. We use the horizontal velocity, which is always the same as follow:

v_x=v_0cos(45\º)=\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}v_0=v_{t=3}*cos(30\º) \\

We know the angle at 3 seconds:

v_y(t=3)=v_{t=3}*sin(30\º)\\v_{t=3}=\frac{v_y}{sin(30\º)}

Substitute  v_{t=3} in  v_x and then solve for  v_y

\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}v_0=\frac{v_y*cos(30\º) }{sin(30\º)} \\v_y=\frac{\sqrt{6} }{6}v_0

With this expression we go back to the kinematic equation and solve it for initial speed

\frac{\sqrt{6} }{6} v_0 =\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}v_0-29.4\\v_0(\frac{\sqrt{6}-3\sqrt{2}}{6} )=-29.4\\v_0=98.37 m/s

When refrigeration can’t work how does the molecules work to keep it cool
Simora [160]
The compressor constricts the refrigerant vapor, raising its pressure, and pushes it into the coils on the outside of the refrigerator. 2. When the hot gas in the coils meets the cooler air temperature of the kitchen, it becomes a liquid. ... The refrigerant absorbs the heat inside the fridge, cooling down the air.

BRAINLYIST ASAPPP write and claim evidence and reasoning statement that explains why mercury and Venus do not have any moons
umka2103 [35]

answer:They are too close to the sun!

Explanation:Because Mercury is so close to the Sun and its gravity, it wouldn't be able to hold on to its own moon. Any moon would most likely crash into Mercury or maybe go into orbit around the Sun and eventually get pulled into it.Same with Venus!
