The total distance travelled is 307.5 miles.

<h3>What is the distance covered?</h3>

We know that the distance covered can be obtained from the formula from speed since the motion all took place in the same direction.

Speed = distance/time

distance = speed * time

In the first case;

Distance =  35 mph  *  2.5 hours = 87.5 miles

In the second case;

Distance =  55 mph * 4.0 hours = 220 miles

Total distance = 87.5 miles + 220 miles = 307.5 miles

Hence the total distance travelled is 307.5 miles.

A force of 6600 N is exerted on a piston that has an area of 0.010 m2
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

Choice A: approximately 0.015\; \rm m^2, assuming that the two pistons are connected via some confined liquid to form a simple machine.

Explanation:

Assume that the two pistons are connected via some liquid that is confined. Pressure from the first piston:

\displaystyle P_1 = \frac{F_1}{A_1} = \frac{6.600\times 10^3\; \rm N}{1.0\times 10^{-2}\; \rm m^{2}} = 6.6\times 10^{5}\; \rm N \cdot m^{-2}.

By Pascal's Principle, because the first piston exerted a pressure of 6.6\times 10^{5}\; \rm N \cdot m^{-2} on the liquid, the liquid will now exert the same amount of pressure on the walls of the container.

Assume that the second piston is part of that wall. The pressure on the second piston will also be 6.6\times 10^{5}\; \rm N \cdot m^{-2}. In other words:

P_2 = P_1 = 6.6\times 10^{5}\; \rm N \cdot m^{-2}.

To achieve a force of 9.900 \times 10^3\; \rm N, the surface area of the second piston should be:

\displaystyle A_2 = \frac{F_2}{P_2} = \frac{9.900\times 10^{3}\; \rm N}{6.6\times 10^5\; \rm N \cdot m^{-2}} \approx 0.015\; \rm m^{2}.

A student sects a leaf of length 7.2 cm to draw. Her drawing is 28.8 cm in length. What is the magnification of the drawing?
Alina [70]

Answer:

A) x4

Explanation:

Magnification is equal to image size divided by the actual size, or M = I/A.

The image size is the student's drawing, which is 28.8 cm, and the actual size is 7.2 cm. Divide them, and cancel out the units, and you should get:

28.8 cm/7.2 cm = 4

Use the diagram to answer each question.
valentina_108 [34]

Figure A shows cross section of a land form or rock. In Figure B, compression stress is applied on it. When compression stresses are applied on a rock, it squeezes the rock cause fold or fracture. The fault formed by compression stress is called thrust fault. If the compression stresses/ force continue to act on a rock it will converge and form thrust fault. In Figure C, tension stresses is applied on the rock. When a tension stress applied on a rock it deforms/ lengthen. There are three type of deformations occur due to tension stresses. One is elastic deformation, in which, rock retains it original shape when force/stresses are removed. Second is plastic deformation, in which rock lengthen and change occur permanently. Third type of deformation is result into fracture or breaking of rock. In Figure C, shear stresses are applied on rock. Shear stresses are applied with equal magnitude but in opposite direction. It cause breaking of rock.
