Answer:

Halfway between B and A on the return leg.

Explanation:

Your average SPEED for the entire trip will equal your constant speed as the time and distance increase at proportionate rates.

Your average VELOCITY will equal your constant speed while you travel from A to B because time and displacement are increasing at proportionate rates.

When you turn around at B to return, your Displacement is now decreasing while your travel time continues to increase, so your average velocity decreases.

Lets say the distance from A to B is 90 km and your constant speed is 30 km/hr.

your average speed is 30 km/hr because you took 6 hrs to travel 180 km

We want to find your position when your average velocity is 30/3 = 10 km/hr

it took 3 hrs to go 90 km from A to B. Let t be the time lapsed since turn around

your displacement is given by d = 90 - 30(t)

and your total time of travel is t + 3 hrs

 v = d/t

10 = (90 - 30t) / (t + 3)

10(t + 3) = (90 - 30t)

10t + 30 = 90 - 30t

40t = 60

t = 1.5 hrs

This will occur when you are halfway between B and A

maxonik [38]

Answer:

Block A will have a final charge of 3.5nC.

Explanation:

This is because at the point of contact with Block B, which is electrically positive, the electrons in Block A will be attracted to the excess 'unpaired' protons in block B. Hence, the electrons will flow into Block B causing unpaired protons to remain in Block A.

This process is called Charging by Conduction.

This charging process will continue until the charges are evenly distributed between both objects.

In case you're wondering, "<em>how's all this possible within a few seconds</em>?", remember that electrons travel very fast and so, this process is a rather rapid one.

weqwewe [10]

Answer:

Energy conservation.

Explanation:

The 1st Law of Thermodynamics is a statement about energy conservation. It states that \Delta U=Q-W, which means that if we <u>substract the work W done</u> by the system to the <u>heat Q given</u> to the system we get the <u>change in the internal energy</u> \Delta U, so any excess in energy given to the system appears as internal energy, stating that energy is conserved.

The characteristic of epithelial cells that makes them ideal for providing this type of protection is that the cells are packed tightly together. 
Skin, the body's largest organ,is our first and best defense against external aggressors. The many layers work hard to protect us, however when its condition is compromised, its ability to work as an effective barrier is impaired.
