15 seconds to finish her race, running with a speed of 8 m/s. Which statement best describes the difference in the distance each runner ran?
A. Jordin's distance was longer by 10 meters.
B. Jordin's distance was longer by 20 meters.
C. Samantha's distance was longer by 2 meters.

Answer:

B. Jordin's distance was longer by 20 meters.

Explanation:

The distance Samantha runs = Samantha's speed ×  Samantha's time = 10 m/s × 10 s = 100 m

The distance Jordin runs = Jordin's speed × Jordin's time = 8 m/s × 15 s = 120 m.

The difference in the distance run = (120 - 100) m = 20 m.

So, Jordin's distance is 20 m more than that of Samantha.

So, Jordin's distance was longer by 20 meters is the answer.

The temperature at a point (x, y) on a flat metal plate is given by T(x, y) = 54/(7 + x2 + y2), where T is measured in °C and x,
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

dt/dx = -0.373702

dt/dy =  -1.121107

Explanation:

Given data

T(x, y) = 54/(7 + x² + y²)

to find out

rate of change of temperature with respect to distance

solution

we know function

T(x, y) = 54 /( 7 + x² + y²)

so derivative it x and y direction i.e

dt/dx = -54× 2x / (7 +x² + y²)²    .........................1

dt/dy = -54× 2y / (7 + x² + y²)²      .........................2

now put the value point (1,3) as x = 1 and y = 3 in equation 1 and 2

dt/dx = -54× 2(1) / (7 +(1)² + (3)²)²  

dt/dx = -0.373702

and

dt/dy =  -54× 2(3) / (7 + (1)² + (3)²)²

dt/dy =  -1.121107

7. A scientist studying a squid observes that the squid at rest
Rzqust [24]

The average force on the squid during the ejection of 0.60 kg of water at a velocity of 15.0 m/s in 0.15 seconds is 60 N.              

We can calculate the average force with the average acceleration as follows:

F = m\overline{a}   (1)

Where:

  • m: is the mass of water = 0.60 kg
  • \overline{a}: is the average acceleration

The <em>average acceleration</em> is given by the change of velocity in an interval of time

\overline{a} = \frac{v_{f} - v_{i}}{t_{f} - t_{i}}   (2)

Where:

  • v_{i}: is the initial velocity = 0 (the squid is at rest)
  • v_{f}: is the final velocity = 15.0 m/s
  • t_{i}: is the initial time = 0  
  • t_{f}: is the final time = 0.15 s

Now we can find the <em>average force</em> after entering equation (2) into (1)

F = m(\frac{v_{f} - v_{i}}{t_{f} - t_{i}}) = 0.60 kg(\frac{15.0 m/s - 0}{0.15 s}) = 60 N  

Therefore, the average force on the squid during the propulsion is 60 N.

A 0.03 in.diameter glass tube is inserted into SAE 30 oilat 60°F. The contact angle (i.e., the angle a liquid forms in contact w
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

The value of capillary rise in the tube = 0.0363 cm

Explanation:

Diameter of the glass tube = 0.03 meter

Contact angle = 22 degree

We know that the capillary rise (h) in the tube is given by the formula =

h = (2 α cos β) / (d g R )

⇒ d = density of gasoline = 749 kg / m^{3}

   β = 22 degree

   R = radius of the tube = 0.015 m

   α = surface tension of gasoline = 0.0216 N / m

   cos 22 = 0.927

Put all the values in the above formula we get

⇒ h = (2 × 0.0216 × 0.927) / (749 × 9.81 × 0.015)

⇒ h = 0.0363 cm

This is the value of capillary rise in the tube.
