What is a scale on a map?

Physics

Oksi-84 [34.3K]4 years ago

A map is almost always smaller than the place it describes. If a map of the US were drawn in its actual size, it would be 3,000 miles wide, and very difficult to fold. ... The scale of the map is the ratio of a distance on the map to the same distance on the real thing. ... If the map scale is 1 : 50000, then 1 foot on the map shows things that are actually spread over 50000 feet in the real city or field.

A man leave his townA at 8 am for town B which is 384km away and he reach at4pm what is average speed in m/s
zlopas [31]

Total distance covered = 384 Km

Total time taken to travel from A to B = 8 hours [from 8 am to 4 pm, there are 8 hours]

We know, Average speed = Total Distance Travelled/ Total Time Taken

Therefore, average speed = 384 Km/8 h = 384000m/8×60×60s =(384000/28800)m/s

= 13.3 m/s

Answer is 13.3 m/s

In the diagram, R1 = 40.0 ,
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

51 Ω.

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the equivalent resistance of R₁ and R₃. This can be obtained as follow:

Resistor 1 (R₁) = 40 Ω

Resistor 3 (R₃) = 70.8 Ω

Equivalent Resistance of R₁ and R₃ (R₁ₙ₃) =?

Since the two resistors are in parallel connection, their equivalent can be obtained as follow:

R₁ₙ₃ = R₁ × R₃ / R₁ + R₃

R₁ₙ₃ = 40 × 70.8 / 40 + 70.8

R₁ₙ₃ = 2832 / 110.8

R₁ₙ₃ = 25.6 Ω

Finally, we shall determine the equivalent resistance of the group. This can be obtained as follow:

Equivalent Resistance of R₁ and R₃ (R₁ₙ₃) = 25.6 Ω

Resistor 2 (R₂) = 25.4 Ω

Equivalent Resistance (Rₑq) =?

Rₑq = R₁ₙ₃ + R₂ (series connection)

Rₑq = 25.6 + 25.4

Rₑq = 51 Ω

Therefore, the equivalent resistance of the group is 51 Ω.
