Two trains leave the station at the same time, one heading east and the other west. the eastbound train travels at 95 miles per

hour. the westbound train travels at 75 miles per hour. how long will it take for the two trains to be 272 miles apart? do not do any rounding.

The east bound train travels at a speed of 95 mile per hour and the west bound train at 75 miles per hour.
Assuming eastbound train will cover distance x then the west bound train will cover distance 272-x .
Therefore, since time taken will be the same then; x/95 = (272-x)/75
          = 75x = 95 (272-x)
          = 75x = 25840 - 95x
          = 170 x= 25840
                     x = 152 miles
Thus time taken will either be x/95 or (272-x)/75
           = 152/95
           = 1.6 hours or 1 hour 36 minutes

Which of the following is fact-based science rather than part of a personal belief system?
marusya05 [52]
Since there are no choices, then this question calls for open-ended answers. Facts-based science must have proven underlying laws that support inferences such as Coulomb's Law, Kinetic Theory of Matter and many more. On the other hand, examples of science that focus on personal belief is philosophy. This depends on the perspective of known philosophers. An example would be Sigmund Freud who proposed the theory of 3 personalities. Although it is more on personal beliefs, this is used as a foundation in the study of psychology.

Four capacitors with capacitance 3.0 pF, 2.0 pF, 5.0 pF and X pF are connected in series to each other. If the equivalent capaci
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

<h2>A. 6pF</h2>

Explanation:

If unknown capacitance C1, C2, C3 and C4 are connected in series to one another, their equivalent capacitance of the circuit will be expressed as shown

\frac{1}{C_t} = \frac{1}{C_1} +\frac{1}{C_2} +\frac{1}{C_3} +\frac{1}{C_4} \\

Given the capacitance's 3.0 pF, 2.0 pF, 5.0 pF and X pF connected in series to each other. If the equivalent capacitance of the circuit is 0.83 pF, then to get X, we will apply the formula above;

\frac{1}{0.83} = \frac{1}{3.0} +\frac{1}{2.0} +\frac{1}{5.0} +\frac{1}{C_4} \\\\\\1.205 = 0.333+0.5+0.2+\frac{1}{C_4} \\\\1.205 = 1.033 + \frac{1}{C_4} \\\\\frac{1}{C_4}  = 1.205-1.033\\\\\frac{1}{C_4}  = 0.172\\\\C_4 = \frac{1}{0.172}\\ \\C_4 = 5.8pF\\\\

C₄ ≈ 6pF

Hence the value of the X capacitor is approximately 6pF
