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 car has a velocity of 10ms-1. it accelerates at 0.2 ms-2 for half minute find the total distance travelled and final velocity
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

Final velocity = 16 m/s

Total distane travelled = 390 m

Explanation:

We can use equation of motion to solve this:

v = u + at \\ v = 10 + 0.2(30) \\ v = 16 {ms}^{ - 1}

s = ut +  \frac{1}{2} a {t}^{2}  \\ s = 10(30) +  \frac{1}{2} (0.2) {(30)}^{2}  \\ s = 390m

-4.3 light years what is the value of the 3??​
Radda [10]

Answer:

A light-year is a unit of distance. It is the distance that light can travel in one year. Light moves at a velocity of about 300,000 kilometers (km) each second. So in one year, it can travel about 10 trillion km. More p recisely, one light-year is equal to 9,500,000,000,000 kilometers

You move the decimal to right behind the first significant digit and the exponent on the 10 is how many places you moved that decimal. You can type it into a calculator to check it as well if you're not sure.
