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

For a submarine, identify when it will have the GREATEST buoyant force acting on it. Assume that neither the volume of the subma
lidiya [134]

Answer: a, c, and g

Explanation:

Buoyant Force is an upward force acting on submerged object equal to weight of fluid displaced by the submerged object.

If no part is submerged (V = 0) that is volume. Therefore there is Zero Buoyant Force.

Fully submerged produces greatest buoyant force since greatest amount of fluid was displaced.

Whenever it is fully submerged it will have the greatest buoyant force.

Buoyant Force DOES NOT Depend on Depth

A fully submerged object displaces its volume in fluid

A floating object displaces its weight in fluid.

If two swimmers compete in a race, does the faster swimmer develop more power?
valkas [14]
Power is equal to energy per unit time. In this case, power is proportional to energy while is inversely proportional to time,on the other hand. Given the two swimmers exerts same amount of energy but the faster swimmer just does things in faster time, then the faster swimmer should develop more power from shorter time

At a wedding reception, you notice a child who looks like their mass is about 25 kg running across the dance floor then sliding
Vitek1552 [10]

Mass of the object m = 25 kg

Coefficient of friction Uk = 0.15

Frictional force Ff = Uk x F => Ff = Uk x m x g

Ff = 0.15 x 25 x 9.8

Frictional Force Ff = 36.75 N
