Answer:

24 mph

Explanation:

Speed = Distance / Time

Speed = 20 ÷ 5/6

Speed = 24 mph

NOTE: 5/6 is a fraction in this case and is equivalent to 50/60 and 60 minutes = 1 hour of course.

Hope this helped!

Answer:

\textsf {speed = 24 mph}

Explanation:

\textsf {Formula used :}\\\implies \textsf {speed = distance/time}

\mathsf {Given :}

\implies \textsf {distance = 20 miles}

\implies \textsf {time = 50 minutes = 5/6 hour}

\textsf {Solving :}

\implies \mathsf {speed = 20 \div 5/6 }

\implies \mathsf {speed = 20 \times 6/5}

\implies \mathsf {speed = 4 \times 6}

\implies \textsf {speed = 24 mph}

What is the magnitude of the largest net force that can be produced by combining a force of 6.0 N
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

10N

Explanation:

The formula for calculating the resultant is expressed as;

R = √F1²+F2²

F1 and F2 are the forces

Given

F1 = 6.0N

F2 = 8.0N

R = √6²+8²

R = √36+64

R = √100

R = 10.0N

Hence the magnitude of the net force is 10N

A single slit is illuminated by light of wavelengths λa and λb, chosen so that the first diffraction minimum of the λa component
agasfer [191]

Answer:

λ_A = 700 nm ,   m_B = m_a 2

Explanation:

The expression that describes the diffraction phenomenon is

         a sin θ = m λ

where a is the width of the slit, lam the wavelength and m an integer that writes the order of diffraction

a) They tell us that now lal_ A m = 1

         a sin θ = λ_A

coincidentally_be m = 2

          a sin  θ = m λ_b

as the two match we can match

         λ _A = 2 λ _B

         λ_A = 2 350 nm

         λ_A = 700 nm

b)

For lam_B

       a sin  λ_A  = m_B  λ_B

For lam_A

        a sin θ_A = m_ λ_ A

to match they must have the same angle, so we can equal

           m_B  λ_B = m_A  λ_A

           m_B = m_A  λ_A / λ_B

           m_b = m_a 700/350

           m_B = m_a 2

Kaylis [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

There is no acceleration in vertical direction

Fn = mg + Fp sin 35

Frictional force = 99.7 N

Net force in forward direction = Fp cos 35 - 99.7

= 168 cos 35 - 99.7

= 137.61-99.7

= 37.91 N

net acceleration of chair = net force / mass

= 37.91 / 50

= .7582 m / s² .
