Complete Question

Alberta is going to have dinner at her grandmother's house, but she is running a bit behind schedule. As she gets onto the highway, she knows that she must exit the highway within 55 min if she is not going to arrive late. Her exit is 43 mi away. How much time would it take at the posted 60 mph speed?

Answer:

The time it would take at the given speed is  x = 43.00 \ minutes

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

      The time taken to exist the highway is  t = 55 min

      The distance to the exist is  d =  43\  mi

       Alberta speed is v =  60 mph

The time it would take travelling at the given speed is mathematically represented as

        t_z = \frac{d}{v}

  substituting values

        t_z = \frac{43}{60}

        t_z = 0.71667\ hrs

Converting to minutes

         1  hour =  60 minutes

So      0.71667 hours = x minutes

   Therefore

               x = 0.71667 * 60

                x = 43.00 \ minutes

A beam of light is traveling through a medium at 200,000 km/s. It enters a different medium and speeds up to almost 250,000 km/s
shtirl [24]

Answer

From the question we can see that the in medium  1 speed of light is 200,000 Km/s where as in Medium 2 speed of light is 250,000 km/s.

We can conclude that medium 1 is denser than Medium 2.

In third medium Light speed halts so, the third medium is opaque.

We can say that

Medium 1 can be either water, glass.

Medium 2 will be gas

Medium 3 will be an opaque material.

Rus_ich [418]

Most geologists accept radiometric dating techniques as valid because radioactive elements decay at a constant and measurable rate.

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation:</u>

Scientists prefer radioactive dating to carbon dating because it is more accurate in measuring.  The analysis depends upon the radioactive decay of radioactive isotopes of any matter in a given rock or soil.

The parent atoms and daughter atoms are compared while studying, and hence age can be calculated easily. Radioactive decay depends upon the given half-life of the atom, which is a constant and is known. So, it would be very easy to calculate the number of progeny atoms and parent atoms and find out their age.

If a cart of 10 kg mass has a force of 5 newtons exerted on it, what is its acceleration? m/s2
Elza [17]

Answer:

= 0.5 m/s²

Explanation:

  • According to Newton's second law of motion, the resultant force is directly proportion to the rate of change of linear momentum.

Therefore;<em> F = ma , where F is the Force, m is the mass and a is the acceleration.</em>

<em>Thus; a = F/m</em>

<em>but; F = 5 N, and m = 10 kg</em>

<em>  a = 5 /10</em>

    <u>= 0.5 m/s²</u>

How many ohms of resistance must be present in a circuit that has 240 volts and a current of 15 amps?
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

16 ohms

Explanation:

V= I ⋅ R

where,  V  is the net potential difference in the circuit,  I  is the current in the circuit and  R  is the net resistance of the circuit.  

In this case,  V = 240  volts,  I = 15  amperes.

240 = 15 ⋅ R  

⇒ R = 240/ 15 = 16  ohms
