Let x mph be the speed of the ship in still water.
Against the current, the net speed is, (x-1.9) mph.
Time, t= distance, d/ Speed, v => 9= 113.4/(x-1.9) => 9(x-1.9) = 113.4 => x-1.9 = 113.4/9 => x = 12.6+1.9 = 14.5 mph

Moving with the current, the net speed of the ship = 14.5+1.9 =16.4 mph

Time take, t = d/v = 113.4/16.4 = 6.915 hours

if you crash your car how could you decrease the damage to you or the car using the concept of impulse
kotykmax [81]

Explanation:

Crumple zones are sections in cars that are designed to crumple up when the car encounters a collision. Crumple zones minimize the effect of the force in an automobile collision in two ways. By crumpling, the car is less likely to rebound upon impact, thus minimizing the momentum change and the impulse.

All organisms in Kingdom Animalia are multicellular, meaning their bodies are composed of more than one cell. Which other charac
k0ka [10]
Well,

For the first one, the answer would be C, because all organisms in Kingdom Animalia must eat in order to survive.

For the second one, all of the options are in Kingdom Animalia, but worms (A) and clams (C) are invertebrates.  So that leaves options B and D.

Why does the mass spectrum of Br2 contain three signals whose heights are almost in the ratio of 1:2:1? What are the origins of
Eddi Din [679]
<span>The element bromine has two isotopes: Br-79 and Br-81, with a 50%-50% isotopic abundance. Statistically, 25% of bromine molecules will be Br79-Br79, 25% will be Br81-Br81 and 50% will be Br79-Br81. This is equivalent to a ratio of 1:1:2 or 1:2:1. The peaks in a mass spectrum just like chromatography reflect this relative abundance of different isotopic combinations.</span>
