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
________________________________________________
</span>
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.

Consider each of the electric- and magnetic-field orientations given next. In each case, what is the direction of propagation of
vodka [1.7K]

The route of the propagation of the wave in every case are; A) +z route B) +z route C) -y route D) -x route .

vec Ein is the Electrical area vector and vec Bin is the Magnetic area vector, due to the fact the sphere vectors are continually perpendicular to every different the propagation of the wave is perpendicular to the 2 vectors. The route of the propagation of the wave may be observed with the aid of using vec Ein X vec Bin (Cross made from vectors). This also can be achieved with the aid of using the usage of the RIGHT HAND RULE.

Cross product may be observed with the aid of using

i x j = okay and j x i = - okay

j x okay=i and okay x j = - i

okay x i=j and that i x okay = - j

wherein i represents the +x route, j represents the +y route and okay represents the +z route

The RIGHT HAND RULE may be used to demonstrate the move product with the aid of using the usage of the proper hand and pointing the index finger withinside the route of the primary vector and the center finger alongside the second one vector, the move product is withinside the route of the thumb.

A) vec Ein the +xdirection,vec Bin the +ydirection,

Finding the move made from the 2 vectors (i x j = okay) might provide a vector withinside the +z route

B) vec Ein the -y route,vec Bin the +x route

Finding the move made from the 2 vectors (- j x i = okay) might provide a vector withinside the +z route

C) vec Ein the +z route,vec Bin the -x route

Finding the move made from the 2 vectors (okay x - i = - j) might provide a vector withinside the -y route

D) vec Ein the +y route,vec Bin the -z route

Finding the move made from the 2 vectors (j x - okay = - i) might provide a vector withinside the -x route

To meet a U.S. Postal Service requirement, employees' footwear must have a coefficient of static friction of 0.5 or more on a sp
motikmotik

Answer:

0.79 s

Explanation:

We have to calculate the employee acceleration, in order to know the minimum time. According to Newton's second law:

\sum F_x:f_{max}=ma_x\\\sum F_y:N-mg=0

The frictional force is maximum since the employee has to apply a maximum force to spend the minimum time. In y axis the employee's acceleration is zero, so the net force is zero. Recall that f_{max}=\mu N

Now, we find the acceleration:

\mu N=ma_x\\\mu mg=ma_x\\a_x=\mu g\\a_x=0.83(9.8\frac{m}{s^2})\\a_x=8.134\frac{m}{s^2}

Finally, using an uniformly accelerated motion formula, we can calculate the minimum time. The employee starts at rest, thus his initial speed is zero:

x=v_0t+\frac{1}{2}a_xt^2\\2x=a_xt^2\\t=\sqrt{\frac{2x}{a}}\\t=\sqrt{\frac{2(3.2m)}{8.134\frac{m}{s^2}}}\\t=0.79 s

Answer:

d. 5 ohms

Explanation:

For resistors in parallel, the equivalent resistance is found with:

1/Req = ∑(1/R)

1/R = 1/15 + 1/15 + 1/15

1/R = 3/15

R = 15/3

R = 5

What happens to the current as we increase the amount of stepping of our transformer? Does this help explain why the primary was
matrenka [14]

Answer:

Current will decrease.

Explanation:

When we increase the number of stepping in transformer, the voltage will increase as its is directly proportional to the number of turn of stepping. Thus as the voltage will increase, current will decrease. As per the equation of ideal transformer,   E1 / E2 = I2 / I1

E1 and E2 are the voltages in primary and secondary winding and I1 and I2 are the current.

As the number of turns will be increased more inevitable losses will be generated that dissipates heat thus warming the primary.

Though the conservation of energy is obeyed but losses occur in this scenario hence step-up transformers cannot be used to create free energy.

Which describes the greatest amount of ice cream?
solmaris [256]

We must know that the gravity acceleration on Jupyter is g = 24.79 m/s² , on the Earth g = 9.8 m/s² and on the moon 1.62 m/s².

The weigh of an object is given by:

P = mg

Solving for m:

m = P/g

We see that for the same weight, if gravity is less, then the amount of mass is greater, because they are inversely proportional. So we conclude that the answer is:

<h2>a 3-N bowl of ice cream on the moon </h2>
