<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

This exposes the individual to danger. <em>Remember</em>, the Newton Law of motion which says that an object under the state of rest will remain in that state (inertia) unless when acted upon by an external force.

In this scenario, standing at the back of the pickup truck presents danger especially if the truck suddenly stops; this individual would experience an upward thrust due to inertia that may disbalance him.

A computer monitor uses 200 W of power. How much energy does it use in 10 seconds?
gavmur [86]

Answer:

<u>The correct answer is 0.556 Watts</u>

Explanation:

The computer monitor uses 200 Watts of power in an hour, that is the standard measure.

If we want to know, how much energy the computer monitor uses in one second, we will have to divide both sides of the equation into 3,600.

1 hour = 60 minutes = 3,600 seconds (60 x 60)

Energy per second = 200/3600

Energy per second = 0.0556 Watts

Therefore to calculate how much energy is used in 10 seconds, we do this:

Energy per second x 10

<u>0.0556 x 10 = 0.556 Watts</u>

<u>The computer monitor uses 0.556 Watts in 10 seconds</u>

Elena-2011 [213]


In a cell, protein synthesis  is the primary function of the ribosomes, found in both eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells.

A Ribosome is a cell organelle that makes protein. The location of the ribosome  in a cell determine the kind of protein it makes.  If the ribosome is attached to the endoplasmic reticulum, the proteins made are utilized both  within and outside the cell. If the ribosome is in the cytoplasm, floating freely, then the kind of protein made will be utilized within the cell only.
