We have that the new speed after she picks up her child is mathematically given as

V2=3m/s

<h3>Speed</h3>

The speed of a body is simply the rate at which the body moves or functions, the speed of a body is measured with an SI unit of m/s.

Generally the equation for the  Velocity is mathematically given as

m1v1=m2v2

Therefore

v2=\frac{60*4}{60+20}

V2=3m/s

Science If you want to find the energy quantum of light, you multiply the frequency of the radiation (v) by "h". What is "h"?
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

"h" signifies Planck's constant

Explanation:

In the equation energy E = h X v

The "h" there signifies Planck's constant

Planck's constant is a value, that shows the rate at which the energy of a photon increases/decreases, as the frequency of its electromagnetic wave changes.

It was named after Max Planck who discovered this unique relationship between the energy of a light wave and its frequency.

Planck's constant, "h" is usually expressed in Joules second

Planck's constant = 6.62607015 \times 10^{-34}  J.s

A mass m attached to a horizontal massless spring with spring constant k, is set into simple harmonic motion. its maximum displa
Lesechka [4]
At the point of maximum displacement (a), the elastic potential energy of the spring is maximum:
U_i= \frac{1}{2} ka^2
while the kinetic energy is zero, because at the maximum displacement the mass is stationary, so its velocity is zero:
K_i =0
And the total energy of the system is
E_i = U_i+K= \frac{1}{2}ka^2

Viceversa, when the mass reaches the equilibrium position, the elastic potential energy is zero because the displacement x is zero:
U_f = 0
while the mass is moving at speed v, and therefore the kinetic energy is
K_f =  \frac{1}{2} mv^2
And the total energy is
E_f = U_f + K_f =  \frac{1}{2} mv^2

For the law of conservation of energy, the total energy must be conserved, therefore E_i = E_f. So we  can write
\frac{1}{2} ka^2 =  \frac{1}{2}mv^2
that we can solve to find an expression for v:
v= \sqrt{ \frac{ka^2}{m} }

Answer: Permanent magnets consist of multiple "ferromagnetic materials" I think that might be the answer, there weren't really any choices for me to choose from.
