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

In concave mirror, the size of image depends upon
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

The distance of the object placed on the principal axis from the concave mirror.

Explanation:

In a concave mirror, the nature of the image formed formed by the object placed in front of the mirror depends on the position of the object placed in from of the mirror. It all depends on the distance between the mirror and the object placed on the principal axis.

The closer the object is to the lens, the more larger or magnified the image formed will be. For example an object placed between the focal point and the pole of a concave produces a much larger image than an object placed beyond the centre of curvature of such mirror.

According to Kepler's Third Law, a solar-system planet that has an orbital radius of 4 AU would have an orbital period of about
NARA [144]

Answer:

Orbital period, T = 1.00074 years

Explanation:

It is given that,

Orbital radius of a solar system planet, r=4\ AU=1.496\times 10^{11}\ m

The orbital period of the planet can be calculated using third law of Kepler's. It is as follows :

T^2=\dfrac{4\pi^2}{GM}r^3

M is the mass of the sun

T^2=\dfrac{4\pi^2}{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 1.989\times 10^{30}}\times (1.496\times 10^{11})^3    

T^2=\sqrt{9.96\times 10^{14}}\ s

T = 31559467.6761 s

T = 1.00074 years

So, a solar-system planet that has an orbital radius of 4 AU would have an orbital period of about 1.00074 years.
