The Olympic record for a marathon is 2.00 hour 9.00 minute 21.0 seconds if the average speed of the runner achieving this record

is 5.436 m/s what is the marathon distance

(2.00 hours) x (3,600 seconds/hour)  =  7,200 seconds

(9.00 minutes) x (60 seconds/minute)  =  540 seconds

The record time = (7,200 + 540 + 21) = 7,761 seconds

Distance  =  (speed) x (time)

                 = (5.436 m/s) x (7,761 sec)  =<span>  42,188.8 meters
________________________________________________

The official length of the marathon run is  42,195 meters.
If we divide that by the record time in the question, we get

                       5.4368... m/s .

Rounded to the nearest thousandth, that's  5.437 m/s.

If the question had given the speed as  5.437  instead of  5.436 ,
then we would have calculated the distance to be 

            (5.437 m/s) x (7,761 sec)  =<span>  42,196.6 meters,

4.6 meters closer to the official distance than the answer we did get.

Max and Jimmy want to jump on a trampoline. Max begins jumping in a steady pattern, making small waves in the trampoline. Jimmy
mylen [45]

Answer:

x_total = (A + B) cos (wt + Ф)

we have the sum of the two waves in a phase movement

Explanation:

In this case we can see that the first boy Max when he enters the trampoline and jumps creates a harmonic movement, with a given frequency. When the second boy Jimmy enters the trampoline and begins to jump he also creates a harmonic movement. If the frequency of the two movements is the same and they are in phase we have a resonant process, where the amplitude of the movement increases significantly.

         Max

               x₁ = A cos (wt + Ф)

         Jimmy

              x₂ = B cos (wt + Ф)

         

total movement

             x_total = (A + B) cos (wt + Ф)

 Therefore we have the sum of the two waves in a phase movement

Andreyy89

Answer:

<em>Billow clouds provide a visible signal to aviation interests of potentially dangerous turbulent sky since they indicate instability in air currents.</em>

Explanation:

Billow clouds are created in regions that are not stable in a meteorological sense. They are frequently present in places with air flows, and have marked vertical shear and weak thermal separation and inversion (colder air stays on top of warmer air). Billow clouds are formed when two air currents of varying speeds meet in the atmosphere. They create a stunning sight that looks like rolling ocean waves. Billow clouds have a very short life span of minutes but they provide a visible signal to aviation interests of potentially dangerous turbulent sky since they indicate instability in air currents, which although may not affect us on the ground but is a concern to aircraft pilots. The turbulence due to the Billow wave is the only logical explanation for the loss of 500 m in altitude of the plane.
