Hello.

The answer is :50

Rate*Time=Distance

r*t=d

d=r/t

400/8=50

Have a nice day

Answer:

The speed of a trip from City A to City B is 50 miles/hr.

Explanation:

Given that,

A person covers the trip of 400 mile in 8 hours.

We need to calculate the speed

Using formula of speed

v = \dfrac{d}{t}

Where, v = speed

d = distance

t = time

Put the value into the formula

v = \dfrac{400}{8}

v=50\ miles/hr

Hence, The speed of a trip from City A to City B is 50 miles/hr.

According to the intuitive guess you just made, is the overall momentum of the two-cart system after the collision greater than,
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

It is equal to the overall momentum before collision, so far no external object is involved.

Explanation:

Momentum is always conserved during collision as a rule. This is equal to the product of the mass and velocity. Thank you.

A very narrow beam of white light is incident at 40.80° onto the top surface of a rectangular block of flint glass 11.6 cm thick
DerKrebs [107]
Dispersion angle = 0.3875 degrees. 
Width at bottom of block = 0.09297 cm 
Thickness of rainbow = 0.07038 cm 
 Snell's law provides the formula that describes the refraction of light. It is:
 n1*sin(θ1) = n2*sin(θ2)
 where
 n1, n2 = indexes of refraction for the different mediums
 Î¸1, θ2 = angle of incident rays as measured from the normal to the surface. 
 Solving for θ2, we get
 n1*sin(θ1) = n2*sin(θ2)
 n1*sin(θ1)/n2 = sin(θ2)
 asin(n1*sin(θ1)/n2) = θ2 
 The index of refraction for air is 1.00029, So let's first calculate the angles of the red and violet rays.
 Red:
 asin(n1*sin(θ1)/n2) = θ2
 asin(1.00029*sin(40.80)/1.641) = θ2
 asin(1.00029*0.653420604/1.641) = θ2
 asin(0.398299876) = θ2
 23.47193844 = θ2 
 Violet:
 asin(n1*sin(θ1)/n2) = θ2
 asin(1.00029*sin(40.80)/1.667) = θ2
 asin(1.00029*0.653420604/1.667) = θ2
 asin(0.39208764) = θ2
 23.08446098 = θ2 
 So the dispersion angle is:
 23.47193844 - 23.08446098 = 0.38747746 degrees. 
 Now to determine the width of the beam at the bottom of the glass block, we need to calculate the difference in the length of the opposite side of two right triangles. Both triangles will have a height of 11.6 cm and one of them will have an angle of 23.47193844 degrees, while the other will have an angle of 23.08446098 degrees. The idea trig function to use will be tangent, where
 tan(θ) = X/11.6
 11.6*tan(θ) = X
 So for Red:
 11.6*tan(θ) = X
 11.6*tan(23.47193844) = X
 11.6*0.434230136 = X
 5.037069579 = X 
 And violet:
 11.6*tan(θ) = X
 11.6*tan(23.08446098) = X
 11.6*0.426215635 = X
 4.944101361 = X 
 So the width as measured from the bottom of the block is: 5.037069579 cm - 4.944101361 cm = 0.092968218 cm 
 The actual width of the beam after it exits the flint glass block will be thinner. The beam will exit at an angle of 40.80 degrees and we need to calculate the length of the sides of a 40.80/49.20/90 right triangle. If you draw the beams, you'll realize that:
 cos(θ) = X/0.092968218
 0.092968218*cos(θ) = X 
 0.092968218*cos(40.80) = X
 0.092968218*0.756995056 = X
 0.070376481 = X 
 So the distance between the red and violet rays is 0.07038 cm.

If an astronaut has a mass of 16 Kg on Earth, what would be his mass on the moon and on the space station
nlexa [21]

Answer:

The astronaut's mass is 16 kg.

Explanation:

Mass can be defined as a measure of the amount of matter an object or a body comprises of. The standard unit of measurement of the mass of an object or a body is kilograms.

Irrespective of the location of an object or a body at a given moment in time, the mass (amount of matter that they're made up of) is constant. This ultimately implies that, whether you're in the moon, space, earth or any other place, your mass remains the same (constant).

Therefore, if an astronaut has a mass of 16 Kg on Earth, his mass on the moon and on the space station would remain the same, as his original mass of 16 Kg because mass is indestructible.

A 5.4 g lead bullet moving at 261 m/s strikes a steel plate and stops. If all its kinetic energy is converted to thermal energy
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

Change in temperature ∆(tita) is 266.097°C

Explanation:

Ok kinectic energy = 1/2MV²

5.4 grams =( 5.4/1000) kilogram

Kinectic energy =( 1/2 )*(5.4/1000)*261²

Kinectic energy = 183.9267 joules

If kinetic energy = thermal energy

183.9267 joules = mc∆(tita)

Where ∆(tita) = change in temperature

And c = 128 J/kg

∆(tita) = 183.9267/((5.4/1000)*128)

∆(tita) = 266.097

∆(tita) = 266.097°C
