A convertible and a minivan leave a highway junction at the same time. The convertible travels west at 40 miles per hour and the

minivan travels north at 50 miles per hour. Assuming the two vehicles do not deviate off course, how far apart are they after 4 hours?

After 4 hrs, the vehicles traveled 256 miles.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Two vehicles traveling at a rate of 40 and 50 miles per hour.

A convertible and a minivan leave a highway junction at the same time.  

The convertible travels west at 40 miles per hour = (40/ hr) / 4 = 160 miles

the minivan travels north at 50 miles per hour = (50/hr) / 4 = 200 miles

how far apart are they after 4 hours is \sqrt{160^{2} + 200^{2} } = 256 miles.

house current is 120 volts. if a light bulb runs a current of 0.5 amps, what is the resistance of the bulb
Sauron [17]
Ohm's Law tells the relationship between voltage, current, and resistance.
It can be written in three different ways, depending on which ones you know,
and which one you want to find.

Here's the one we need:       

                           Resistance  =  (voltage) divided by (current)

                                               =  (120 V)  /  (0.5 Amp)

                                               =          240 ohms .

A student hangs a weight on a newtonmeter. The energy currently stored in the spring in the newton meter is 0.045N. The student
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

5x10^-3

Explanation:

Hooke's Law states that the force needed to compress or extend a spring is directly proportional to the distance you stretch it.

Hooke's Law can be represented as

<h3> F = kx, </h3>

<em>where F is the force </em>

<em>            k is the spring constant</em>

<em>            x is the extension of the material </em>

<em />

Plug values in the equation

Step 1 find the original extension

0.045 = (400)x

x = 1.125x 10^-4 m d

Step 2 find the new extension

0.045+2 = 400(x)

2.045 = 400x

x = 5.1125x10^-3

Step 3 subtract the new extension with original

Total extension of the spring =  5.1125x10^-3 - 1.125x 10^-4 m = 5x10^-3

1. The diagram shows a satellite traveling in uniform circular motion around the Earth.
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

M V R = constant      angular momentum is constant because  no forces act in the direction of V

Since M (mass) = constant

V R = constant

The force is directed along the gravitational force vector (towards the center of rotation)
