Early humans used rocks as tools to make other things as well as to construct buildings. Why was it better for them to use rocks

than another material such as wood?

Explanation:

1. Rocks are tougher and stronger as compared to wood.

2. Rocks can be naturally found in various shapes: pointed, flat etc which makes them usable as a tool right away without any major modifications. In case of wood has to be shaped into desired shape.

3. Wood is more prone to weathering due to atmospheric condition in comparison to stones.

Wood isn't as tough as rock. Wood also breaks down in weather and cracks under pressure. Plus rocks were more accessible.

That is FALSE. The equation to calculate the charges has a distance component that is in the denominator which means that it is inversely proportional (as the distance os greater the force is smaller)

A biconvex lens is formed by using a piece of plastic(n=1.70).
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

f =17.15\ cm

Explanation:

given,

refractive index of lens, n = 1.70

Radius of curvature of front surface. R₁ = 20 cm

Radius of curvature of the back surface, R₂ = 30 cm

focal length= ?

\dfrac{1}{f}=(n-1)(\dfrac{1}{R_1}-\dfrac{1}{R_2})

    R₁ = +20 cm

    R₂ = -30 cm

    n = 1.70

\dfrac{1}{f}=(1.70-1)(\dfrac{1}{20}-\dfrac{1}{-30})

\dfrac{1}{f}=0.70 \times 0.0833

f = \dfrac{1}{0.7 \times 0.0833}

f =17.15\ cm

the focal length of the lens is equal to 17.15 cm

WILL NAME THE BRAINLIEST! An airplane undergoes the following displacements: It first flies 72 km in a direction of 30° East of
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

82.1 km

Explanation:

We need to resolve each displacement along two perpendicular directions: the east-west direction (let's label it with x) and the north-south direction (y). Resolving each vector:

A_x = (72) sin 30^{\circ} =36.0 km\\A_y = (72) cos 30^{\circ} = 62.4 km

Vector B is 48 km south, so:

B_x = 0\\B_y = -48

Finally, vector C:

C_x = -(100) cos 30^{\circ} =-86.6 km\\C_y = (100) sin 30^{\circ} = 50.0 km

Now we add the components along each direction:

R_x = A_x + B_x + C_x = 36.0 + 0 +(-86.6)=-50.6 km\\R_y = A_y+B_y+C_y = 62.4+(-48)+50.0=64.6 km

So, the resultant (which is the distance in a straight line between the starting point and the final point of the motion) is

R=\sqrt{R_x^2+R_y^2}=\sqrt{(-50.6)^2+(64.6)^2}=82.1 km

How much time will it take for a truck to travel 20 meters if it is traveling at 4 m/s?
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

<h2>The answer is 5 s</h2>

Explanation:

The time taken can be found by using the formula

t =  \frac{d}{v}  \\

d is the distance

v is the velocity

From the question we have

t =  \frac{20}{4}  \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>5 s</h3>

Hope this helps you
