Buffalo, New York, and Raleigh, NC, lie approximately on the same meridian. Buffalo has a latitude of 42.9° N, and Raleigh has a

latitude of 35.8° N. Find the distance between these two cities. (The radius of the earth is 3960 mi. Round your answer to the nearest mile.)

Answer:

Distance will be =3960\times 0.12385=490.468miles

Explanation:

We have given that Buffalo has a latitude of 42.9°N

And Raleigh has a latitude of 35.8°N

Radius of the earth = 3960 miles

We have to calculate the distance between given two cities

Difference in their latitudes = 42.9-35.8=7.1^{\circ}

Now changing the angle in radian = 7.1\times\frac{\pi }{180}=0.12385radian

So distance will be =3960\times 0.12385=490.468miles

In calculus, neglecting air resistance, the formula for range is R = v(0)^2 sin 2A/g, where v(0) is the initial speed, A is the angle, and g is the acceleration of gravity. Here v(0) = 20 m/s, and g is a constant.

Consider a spherical tank full of water with radius 3 m (plus a spout on top 1m high). Set up an integral expression for the wor
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

The answer to the question is

4433.416 kJ

See explanation below

(3-y)²+r² = 3² or

6y-y² = r²

r =√(6y-y²)

The volume of a small section of height Δy =  Δy ×(√(6y-y²))²×π

For water with density of 1000 kg/m³, the mass of the slice

= 1000×Δy ×(√(6y-y²))²×π and since force = mass × acceleration we have

1000×Δy ×(√(6y-y²))²×π ×g = 1000×Δy ×(√(6y-y²))²×π ×9.81

The work done to move a unit height of y+1 = Force × Distance

W  = 1000×Δy ×(√(6y-y²))²×π ×9.81 × (y+1)

Integrating the entire section of the sphere that is 2×r high, or from 0 to 6 we get

W =\int\limits^6_0 {1000*(6y-y^{2} ) *\pi *9.81 * (y+1)} \, dy

= 9810*\pi \int\limits^6_0 {5y^{2} -y^{3}  +6y \, dy

= 9810*\pi *[\frac{5y^{3} }{3} -\frac{y^{4} }{4} +3y^{2} ]^{6} _{0}

=9810×π×144 =4433416 J

Which of the following quantities provide enough information to calculate the tension in a string of mass per unit length μ that
Bad White [126]

Answer:

A. the wave speed v and Wavelength

Explanation:

Given that

Mass density per unit length=μ

Frequency = f

The velocity V given as

\mu=\dfrac{T}{V^2}\ kg/m

V=\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{\mu}}

T=Tension

V=Velocity

V= f λ

λ=Wavelength

Therefore to find the tension ,only wavelength and speed is required.

The answer is A.

This question is not about physics science.

The answer is: option <span>a. Five-year-old children have longer attention spans than three-year-old children.

It is the attention ability what let the older children to stay longer in one location instead of being moving between different activities. The younger children who cannot keep their attention long time in a same activity entertain themselves by changing activities.
