Average speed = (total distance covered) / (time to cover the distance) .

Total distance covered = (55 km + 52 km) = 107 km

Time to cover the distance = (2 hrs + 5 hrs) = 7 hrs

Average speed = (107 km) / (7 hrs)

Average speed = 15.29 km/hour

The formula for working out speed is distance ÷ time.

55 km ÷ 2 hours = 27.5 km/h (average speed for first part of journey)

52km ÷ 5 hours = 10.4 km/h (average speed for second part of journey)

(27.5 + 10.4) ÷ 2 = 18.95 km/h (average speed throughout the journey)

andrew11 [14]

Explanation:

The frequency is given to be f = 8 Hz.

Period is the inverse of frequency.

T = 1/f = 0.125 s

Velocity is wavelength times frequency.

v = λf = (0.40 m) (8 Hz) = 3.2 m/s

The wave travels 3.2 meters every second.

hammer [34]

Answer:

1201 lbs

Explanation:

Given that in mammals, the weight of the heart is approximately 0.5% of the total body weight.

Let the weight of the heart of a mammal be H

And the weight of the total body be B

The linear model that can gives the heart weight in terms of the total body weight will be:

H = 0.005B

B.) To find the weight of the heart of a whale whose weight is 2.402 × 105 lbs, substitute the whole weight in the formula.

H = 0.005 × 2.402 × 10^5

H = 1201 lbs

Therefore, the weight of the heart of the whale is 1201 lbs
