Let
x----------------> <span>feet of yarn of Becky
y----------------> </span><span>feet of yarn of James

we know that
4 2/8------> 4 1/4--------> (4*4+1)/4-----> 17/4
1 5/8------> (1*8+5)/8-----> 13/5
x+y=4 2/8-------> x+y=17/4----> equation 1
x=1 5/8--------> x=13/5------> equation 2
substitute 2 in 1
[13/5]+y=17/4------> y=(17/4)-(13/5)----> y=[5*17-4*13]/20
y=(85-52)/20-----> y=33/20----> y=1.65-----> y=1 65/100----> y=1 13/20

the answer is
</span><span>james have 1 13/20 ft of yarn</span>

A gun mass of 5 kg fired a bullet of mass 10 g with the velocity of 360 km/h. What
klemol [59]

Answer:

The recoil velocity of the gun is 0.72\,\,\frac{km}{h}  and is pointing in opposite direction to the velocity of the bullet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use conservation of linear momentum, which states that the momentum of the bullet (product of the bullet's mass times its speed) should equal in absolute value the momentum of the recoiling gun (its mass times its recoil velocity).

We also write the mass of the bullet in the same units as the mass of the gun (for example kilograms). Mass of the bullet = 0.010 kg

In mathematical terms, we have:

5\, kg * v= 0.01 \,kg\,* 360\,\frac{km}{h} \\v=\frac{0.01\,*360}{5} \,\,\frac{km}{h}\\v=0.72\,\,\frac{km}{h}

(ILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!)<br><br><br> What is friction and when does it occur?
docker41 [41]

Answer:

Friction is a force that opposes motion between any surfaces that are touching. Friction occurs because no surface is perfectly smooth. Rougher surfaces have more friction between them. ... Friction produces heat because it causes the molecules on rubbing surfaces to move faster and have more energy
