A car's fuel economy is 30 mpg. a warning light is displayed if the remaining distance that can be driven before the car runs ou

Alchen [17]

So 10 gallons of gas would let you travel 300 Miles.

x gallons = 50 Miles

10 : 300 :: x : 50

x = 500/300

x = 1.66667 gallons.

So, the car would run 10 - 1.6666 gallons = 8.33 gallons.

After that, the warning light turns ON!

Hope this helps!!

Answer:

The average speed is 22.2 km/h

Explanation:

Average Speed

Given an object travels a total distance d and took a total time t, then the average speed is:

$\displaystyle \bar v=\frac{d}{t}$

The mailman first drives d1=7 km at v1=15 km/h. The time taken to drive is:

$\displaystyle t1=\frac{d1}{v1}=\frac{7}{15}=0.467\ h$

Then he drives d2=7 km at v2=43 km/h taking a time of:

$\displaystyle t2=\frac{d2}{v2}=\frac{7}{43}=0.163\ h$

The total time is

t=0.467 h + 0.163 h = 0.63 h

The total distance is

d = 7 km + 7 km = 14 km

The average speed is:

$\displaystyle \bar v=\frac{14}{0.63}=22.2\ km/h$

The average speed is 22.2 km/h

You stand on a straight desert road at night and observe a vehicle approaching. This vehicle is equipped with two small headligh

choli [55]

Answer:

They can be seen from a distance of 4.372 kilometers.

Explanation:

Using the Reyligh creterion for diffraction through a circular aperture we have

$\frac{x}{D}=\frac{1.22\lambda }{d}$

where symbol's have their usual meaning

thus applying values we get

$D=\frac{dx}{1.22\lambda }$

$\therefore D=\frac{0.633\times 4.61\times 10^{-3}}{1.22\times 547\times 10^{-9}}\\\\D=4372.77m\\=4.372km$

The speed of an object and the direction in which it moves constitute a vector quantity known as the velocity. an ostrich is run

Orlov [11]

Velocity of an object is its rate of change of the object's position per interval of time. Velocity is a vector quantity which means that it consists of a magnitude and a direction. Magnitude is represented by the speed and the direction is represented by the angle. To determine the velocity components, we use trigonometric functions to determine the angle of the components. For the north component we, use the sine function while, for the west component, we use the cosine function. We calculate as follows:
north velocity component = (16.8 m/s) (sin 54°) = 16.4 m/s
west velocity component = (16.8 m/s) (cos 54°) = 3.49 m/s
