The will dog catch up with the rabbit in 6 minutes assuming both their velocities remain constant during the chase.

<h3>What time will the dog catch the rabbit?</h3>

The time that the dog will catch up with the rabbit is given as follows:

Let the distance covered by the rabbit be x.

Distance covered by dog = x + 30

  • Time taken = distance/speed

The time taken will be the same T

  1. Time taken by dog, T = (x + 30)/10
  2. Time taken by rabbit, T = x/5

Equating both times.

(x + 30)/10 = x/5

x = 30 m

Solving for T in equation (ii);

T = 30/5 = 6 minutes

In conclusion, time is obtained as a ratio of distance and speed.

What is hooke's law? Also what does it say about how elastic materials respond to force? Explain.
gogolik [260]
It <span>states that the force F needed to extend or compress a spring by some distance X is proportional to that distance.

For elastic materials, they extend more in same amount of force, (as they are directly proportional), due to it's elastic nature (presence of large deforming force)

Hope this helps!</span>

2 Select the correct answer. Javed suffers from a severe food allergy. Which device should Javed always carry? A. inhaler B. epi
Slav-nsk [51]

The best answer would be:

B. Epi pen

Here is more about it:

An epi pen injects epinephrine into the body to counteract the effects of an allergic reaction. Epinephrine helps narrow blood vessels and open up the airways. This can be used for food allergies, insect bites, and some other allergens. It is very effective and immediately works, but it is short-lived, so seeking medical attention after is still needed.

A 3047.8 kg truck has lost its brakes coming down a mountain. Fortunately, there is a ramp of thick gravel inclined at 9.5 degre
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

The work done by the gravel to stop the truck is 520.44 kJ

Explanation:

<u>Step 1</u>: Data given

Mass of the truck = 3047.8 kg

The ramp has an angle of 9.5 °

Velocity of  the truck = 20.68 m/s

distance = 26.6 meters

<u>Step 2:</u> Calculate initial kinetic energy

sin 9.5° = 0.165

h = ℓ*sin 9.5° = 26.6*0.165= 4.39 m

Ek = 1/2m*Vo² = 1/2*3047.8*20.68² = 651714.7 Joule = 651.7 kJ  = initial kinetic energy

<u>Step 3: </u>Calculate potential energy

Epot = U = m*g*h = 3047.8*9.81*4.39 = 131256.25 Joule = 131.26 kJ

<u>Step 4:</u>  What work is done by the truck on the gravel?  

Frictional energy Ef = 651.7 kJ - 131.26 kJ = 520.44 kJ

At an instant when a soccer ball is in contact with the foot of the player kicking it, the horizontal or x component of the ball
dedylja [7]

Answer:

Magnitude of net force will be 432.758 N  

Explanation:

We have given x component of acceleration a_x=760m/sec^2

And vertical component of acceleration  a_y=770m/sec^2

Mass of the ball m = 0.40 kg

So net acceleration a=\sqrt{a_x^2+a_y^2}=\sqrt{760^2+770^2}=1081.896m/sec^2

Now according to second law of motion

Force = mass × acceleration

So F = 0.40×1081.896 = 432.758 N

What are the comparisons and contrast of adaptation and natural selection? ASAP!!!!!!
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

Natural selection is a mechanism, or cause, of evolution.

Explanation:

Adaptations are physical or behavioral traits that make an organism better suited to its environment. Heritable variation comes from random mutations.
