Given the distance traveled and time elapsed, the average speed of the train is approximately 26.944m/s.

<h3>What is the average speed of the train?</h3>

Speed is simply referred to as distance traveled per unit time.

Mathematically, Speed = Distance ÷ time.

Given the data in the question;

  • Distance traveled = 221miles
  • Elapsed time = 3 hours and 40 minutes

First we convert miles to meters and Hours minutes to seconds.

221 miles = ( 221 × 1609.344 )m = 355665.024 meters

3 hours and 40 minutes = ( 3×60×60)s + ( 40×60)s

= 10800s + 2400s

= 13200s

Now, determine the average speed.

Speed = Distance ÷ time

Speed = 355665.024m / 13200s

Speed = 26.944m/s

Given the distance traveled and time elapsed, the average speed of the train is approximately 26.944m/s.

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

Chloride and Salt

Explanation:

that make up table salt, a.k.a. sodium chloride (NaCl). ... As sodium chloride (NaCl) or calcium chloride (CaCl2) dissolve in water, ... the compound formed when a positive ion combines with a negative ion out of solution, but ... waters may have more if there is weathering or leaching from nearby mineral-rich soils and rocks.

In an engine, a piston oscillates with simple harmonic motion so that its position varies according to the expression x= 5.0 cos
lakkis [162]

Answer:

a)   x = 4.33 m ,   b)  w = 2 rad / s ,  f = 0.318 Hz ,  c) a = - 17.31 cm / s²,  

d) T =  3.15 s,  e)  A = 5.0 cm

Explanation:

In this exercise on simple harmonic motion we are given the expression for motion

          x = 5 cos (2t + π / 6)

they ask us for t = 0

a) the position of the particle

      x = 5 cos (π / 6)

      x = 4.33 m

remember angles are in radians

 

b) The general form of the equation is

          x = A cos (w t + Ф)

when comparing the two equations

         w = 2 rad / s

angular velocity and frequency are related

          w = 2π f

           f = w / 2π

           f = 2 / 2pi

           f = 0.318 Hz

c) the acceleration is defined by

      a == d²x / dt²

      a = - A w² cos (wt + Ф)

for t = 0 ,  we substitute

      a = - 5,0 2² cos (π / 6)

      a = - 17.31 cm / s²

d) El period is

          T = 1/f

         T= 1/0.318

         T =  3.15 s

e) the amplitude

        A = 5.0 cm

A ball is released from a tower at a height of 100 meters toward the roof of another tower that is 25 meters high. The horizonta
I am Lyosha [343]
-- During the time the ball is flying from the high roof to the low roof,
it's going to fall (100-25) = 75 meters.
How long does it take an object dropped from rest to fall 75 meters ?

Distance = (1/2) · (gravity) · (time)²

75 m = (4.9 m/s²) · (time)²

Time² = (75 m) / (4.9 m/s²)
Time² = 15.31 sec²
Time = √(15.31 sec²)  =  3.91 seconds 

So the ball has to cover the horizontal distance of 20 meters 
in 3.91 seconds.

Distance = (speed) · (time)

20 m = (speed) · (3.91 sec)

Speed = (20 m) / (3.91 sec)

Speed  =  5.11 m/s

IDENTIFY and DESCRIBE the six climate regions.
Bad White [126]

Answer:

6 climate regions are Mediterranean, Polar, Tropical, Temperate, Arid and Tundra.

Explanation:

There are six main climate regions in the world. These regions distinguished from one another on the basis of climate that exists there. Above mentioned climates are described shortly as follows:

Mediterranean: This region is the region surrounding the Mediterranean sea, Southern California and Southern America. The climate in this region is hot and dry in summer whereas mild winters are there in this region.

Polar: This region is on the South Pole, near the side of Greenland. The climate in this region is very cold and chilled.

Tropical: This region consists of jungles of South America, Africa, some parts of Asia and the islands of Pacific. The climate of this region is Hot. Due to heavy rainfalls in this area, the area is also wet.

Temperate: North America, Europe and Northern Asia is included in this region. The climate is mild hot in summers and cold in winters.

Arid: This region consists of deserts of Africa, Asia, US and Australia. The climate is very hot throughout the year.

Tundra: This region consists of the mountain tops of America, Asia and Greenland. The climate is extremely cold in such regions throughout the year.
