D = distance between the cars at the start of time = 680 km

v₁ = speed of one car

v₂ = speed of other car = v₁ - 10

t = time taken to meet = 4 h

distance traveled by one car in time "t" + distance traveled by other car in time "t" = D

v₁ t + v₂ t = D

(v₁ + v₂) t = D

inserting the values

(v₁ + v₁ - 10) (4) = 680

v₁ = 90 km/h

rate of slower car is given as

v₂ = v₁ - 10

v₂ = 90 - 10 = 80 km/h

-Boston tea party-
lisov135 [29]

Answer: The Boston Tea Party was a political protest that occurred on December 16, 1773, at Griffin’s Wharf in Boston, Massachusetts. American colonists, frustrated and angry at Britain for imposing “taxation without representation,” dumped 342 chests of tea, imported by the British East India Company into the harbor. The event was the first major act of defiance to British rule over the colonists. It showed Great Britain that Americans wouldn’t take taxation and tyranny sitting down, and rallied American patriots across the 13 colonies to fight for independence.

You drive 6.00 km at 50.0 km/h and then another 6.00kmat 900 km/h Your average speed over
Cerrena [4.2K]

Explanation:

average speed = total distance travelled / total time travelled

time to travel the first 6km: 6 / 50 = 3/25 (h)

time to travel the next 6km: 6 / 90 = 1/15 (h)

[I think there's problem in the question 'cause 900km/h sounds impossible for normal person to travel in normal condition]

The total time: 3/25 + 1/15 = 14/75 (h)

Average speed over the 12 km drive will be:

\frac{12}{ \frac{14}{75} }  =  \frac{450}{7}  = 64.3 \: km{h}^{ - 1}

velikii [3]

Answer:

16.6 N

Explanation:

m = 0.52 kg, v₀ = 0, v = 8.6 m/s, t = 0.27 s

a = (v - v₀)/t

F = ma = m(v - v₀)/t = 0.52 (8.6 - 0)/0.27 = 16.6 N

In the context of energy transfers with hot and cold reservoirs, the sign convention is that _______________.
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

B. QC > 0; QH < 0

Explanation:

Given that there are two reservoir of energy.

Sign convention for heat and work :

1.If the heat is adding to the system then it is taken as positive and if heat is going out from the system then it is taken as negative.

2. If the work is done on the system then it is taken as negative and if the work is done by the system then it is taken as positive.

From hot reservoir heat is going out that is why it is taken as negative

Q_H

From cold reservoir heat is coming inside the reservoir that is why it is taken as positive

Q_C>0

That is why the answer will be

Q_H ,Q_C>0

If two parallel conductors are both free to move and are carrying current in the same direction, what would happen if the curren
pishuonlain [190]

The wires would remain attracted to each other.

Option D.

Explanation:

It is known that magnetic flux will be generated in conductors with varying emf. So when current is flowing in two parallel conductors, the magnetic flux will be generated in those wires. If the current is flowing in same direction in both the wires, then the magnetic flux will be generated towards inside and outside the wires. Thus, the wire will get attracted to each other till the time the current is flowing in the same direction in both the wires. So if the current flow in each wire was reversed at the same time, then the wire would remain attracted to each other.
