What do scientist mean when they use the term inertia?

Atank holds 1000 gallons of water, which drains from the bottom of the tank in half an hour. the values in the table show the volume v of water remaining in the tank (in gallons) after t minutes.t(min) 5 10 15 20 25 30v(gal) 694 444 250 111 28 0(a) if p is the point (15, 250) on the graph of v, find the slopes of the secant lines pq when q is the point on the graph with t = 5, 10, 20, 25, and 30.(b) estimate the slope of the tangent line at p by averaging the slopes of two secant lines.(c) use a graph of the function to estimate the slope of the tangent line at p. (this slope represents the rate at which the water is flowing from the tank after 15 minutes.)show all steps.

The total amount of energy contained in an object

Acharge q experiences no net force at a particular point in space. which of the following situations described below must always be true? -there are no other charges nearby. -if there are other charges nearby, they must all have the same sign as q. -if there are other charges nearby, they must all have the opposite sign of q. -if there are other charges nearby, the total positive charge must equal the total negative charge. -none of the above
