Hi there!

Informative writing has the intent to inform or educate us on a particular topic or event. It gives us more information and insight onto something.

Persuasive writing has the intent of convincing us to believe in a certain idea or to perform a certain action. For instance, advertisements have a persuasive intent; they are persuading us to buy a product or service.

Argumentative writing is similar to persuasive writing in the sense that they are persuading us to believe a certain idea. However, they are often based on logic and fact rather than opinions.

Let's look at the first excerpt.

<em>This morning at 9 a.m., a school bus collided with a car at the intersection of Osmena and Cabrera streets. The passengers were not injured, but the medical personnel checked each student as well as the driver before they were transported to their school.</em>

This text doesn't try to convince us in believing something. It doesn't argue anything and it only tries to give us more insight onto the event, which is a car accident. No opinions are stated and only events are given.

Therefore, this excerpt uses an informative writing technique.

A fisherman is fishing from a bridge and is using a "44.0-N test line." In other words, the line will sustain a maximum force of
vitfil [10]

Answer:

a) 4.485 kg b) 3.94 kg

Explanation:

since the maximum tension the line can stand is 44 N and for question a the speed is constant (acceleration must be zero since the velocity or speed is not changing), F(tension) = mass * acceleration due to gravity (g) .

44 = m * 9.81m/s^2

m = 44/9.81 = 4.485kg

b) F(tension) = ma + mg ( where a is the acceleration of the body and g is the acceleration of the gravity)

44 = m (a +g)

44 = m (1.37 + 9.81)

44/11.18 = m

m = 3.94 kg

If you travel 1.7 km north from your house at noon, and at 6:00 PM you travel 5.4 km south, what is your displacement? 3.7 km no
Yakvenalex [24]

<u>Answer</u>

3.7 Km south


<u>Explanation</u>

The definition of displacement is the distance traveled in a specific direction. It is the vector quantity. We add displacements like the way we add vectors.

Taking the direction towards North to be positive (+1.7 Km), the distance towards south would be negative (-5.4 Km).

Now lets add the two values.

(+1.7) + (-5.4) = 1.7 - 5.4

                    = - 3.7 Km      But negative was towards south.

∴ Answer = 3.7 Km south.

What process is occurring in the picture?
Alex777 [14]

Two fat black arrows are swimming along together, when they see a single skinny black arrow coming toward them. They are afraid of strangers, and they know that the skinny one must be mean and tough if it's not afraid to travel alone. So they turn to the side and get out of the skinny arrow's way.
