The time taken for Train A to be 39.1 miles ahead of Train B is 2.7 hours

<h3>How to determine the relative speed</h3>
  • Speed of Train A = 41.1 mph
  • Speed of Train B = 26.5 mph
  • Relative speed =?

Relative speed = 41.1 - 26.5

Relative speed = 14.6 mph

<h3>How to determine the time to be 39.1 miles apart</h3>
  • Relative speed = 14.6 mph
  • Distance = 39.1 miles
  • Time =?

Relative speed = distance / time

14.6 = 39.1 / time

Cross multiply

14.6 × time = 39.1

Divide both side by 14.6

Time = 39.1 / 14.6

Time = 2.7 hours

Thus, it will take train A 2.7 hours to be 39.1 miles ahead of Train B

eimsori [14]
<span>9000 Pascals Looking on the internet, it appears that a human can only suck about 3 feet of water. So let's convert that measurement into a few more convenient units. cmH2O = 36 * 2.54 = 91.44 cmH2O cmHg = 91.44 * 0.73555912101486 = 67.26 mmHg Pascal = 91.44 * 98.0665 = 8967 Pascals PSI = 91.44 * 0.0142233 = 1.3 psi Since we're dealing with science and the metric system is the most common system used in science, I'd recommend an answer of 9000 Pascals.</span>

At what point in its motion is the KE of a pendulum bob a maximum? 1. The KE does not change. 2. at the lowest point 3. at the h
Andrew [12]

Answer:

2. at the lowest point

Explanation:

The motion of the pendulum is a continuous conversion between kinetic energy (KE) and gravitational potential energy (GPE). This is because the mechanical energy of the pendulum, which is sum of KE and GPE, is constant:

E = KE + GPE = const.

Therefore, when KE is maximum, GPE is minimum, and viceversa.

So, the point of the motion where the KE is maximum is where the GPE is minimum: and since the GPE is directly proportional to the heigth of the bob:

GPE=mgh

we see that GPE is minimum when the bob is at the lowest point,so the correct answer is

2. at the lowest point

How long would i t take to walk around the eath nonstop?
zaharov [31]

Divide (25,000) by (the number of miles you can walk in 1 hour).
The answer you get is the number of hours it would take you to walk around the Earth once, IF you were able to walk on water too.
