Answer: 1,224 km/h

Explanation:

To do this, we pick the first unit and convert
Picking m first and converting to km:
Since we're converting from a non-prefix to a prefix, we divide the value by the prefix were taking it to. In this case, kilo = 10³ which means we're going to divide our value by 1000 to convert it from m to km
340 m/s ÷ 1000 = 0.34 km/s
Now, let's convert our seconds to hour:
We'll need to calculate how many hours is equivalent to one second first;
1 hr = 60×60 seconds
X hr = 1 second
*Cross multiply*
1 × 1 = X × 60 × 60
1 = 3,600 X
X = 1 / 3,600
X = 2.778×10⁻⁴ hour
So, in the place of "1 Second", we're going to be inserting 2.778×10⁻⁴ hour instead
0.34 km / s = 0.34 km / 2.778×10⁻⁴ hour
(0.34 / 2.778×10⁻⁴) km/hour
1,224 km/h.
340 m/s = 1,224 km/h

The spider will cross the driveway <u>25.71 in seconds</u>.

Why?

It's a conversion problem, so, in order to solve it, we need to convert the units of the given information.

Let's convert the given speed (in cm/s) to m/s.

We know that:

1m=100cm

So, converting we have:

14\frac{cm}{s}*\frac{1m}{100cm}=0.14\frac{m}{s}

Then, calculating the time, we have:

distance=speed*time\\\\3.6m=0.14\frac{m}{s}*time\\\\time=\frac{3.6m}{0.14\frac{m}{s}}=25.71s

We have that the spider will cross the driveway in 25.71 seconds.

Have a nice day!

How can we use thermal energy to our advantage?
devlian [24]

Answer:

One of the primary advantages of thermal power is that the generation costs are extremely low. No fuel is needed to generate the power, and the minimal energy needed to pump water to the Earth's surface can be taken from the total energy yield.

What is an equilibrant?
Damm [24]
<span>The equilibrant, also known as the counterbalancer in a force system, is an equal but opposite force that produces equilibrium. It acts against the resultant force to keep a body motionless. Suppose we have a 20kg mass on one end of a swing and nothing on the other. The swing will be titled unevenly because no force balances the 20kg weight. On the other hand suppose a weight of 40kg rest on the other end. This force doesn't produce equilibrium either because it isn't equal to the 20kg weight; the swing would tilt towards the weight of larger mass. A 20kg mass will balance the system. Hence the force which balances other forces, thus bringing an object to equilibrium is the equilbrant.</span>
