Wow! 2.95m/s is a mighty fast pace for a backpacker. Must have one of those Star Wars anti-gravity packs. Also, I would be curious as to why she passed her destination and then walked back.
<span>Anyway, it goes like this: </span>
<span>Say the time walking east is 't', and the total time is 'T'. </span>
<span>Then 5340 m + .511 t = 1.43 T </span>
<span>(This assumes that velocity is positive in both directions) </span>
<span>Two unknowns in one equation. But you also know that the time spent walking west is </span>
<span>5340m/ 2.95m/s = 1810 sec. </span>
<span>and the total time T = 1810 +t </span>
<span>Substitute this into the first equation, and you can solve for t = 3092 sec. </span>
<span>Then T = 4902 sec. and distance walked east is .511t = 1580m.</span>
A.... As energy is the ability to do work... And exerting force and transfering heat falls under work
The Earth gets hotter as one travels towards the core, known as the geothermal gradient. The geothermal gradient is the amount that the Earth's temperature increases with depth. ... On average, the temperature increases by about 25°C for every kilometer of depth.
m = Mass of the refrigerator to be moved to third floor = 136 kg
g = Acceleration due to gravity by earth on the refrigerator being moved = 9.8 m/s²
h = Height to which the refrigerator is moved = 8 m
W = Work done in lifting the object
Work done in lifting the object is same as the gravitational potential energy gained by the refrigerator. hence
Work done = Gravitation potential energy of refrigerator
W = m g h
inserting the values
W = (136) (9.8) (8)
W = 10662.4 J
I would use miles
Because miles will give you less of an answer
