Truck drivers approaching a steep hill that they must climb often increase their speed. What good does this do, if any?

Um, this doesn't make any sense. By climbing a hill, you are decreasing your momentum and kinetic energy, so it slows you down. The only positive, is after you have climbed the hill, you have more potential energy, and it will be released once you go down the hill, but you will not be as fast as if you ignored the hill.

Two ships leave a harbor at the same time, traveling on courses that have an angle of 110∘ between them. If the first ship trave
Allushta [10]

Answer:

49.07 miles

Explanation:

Angle between two ships = 110° = θ

First ship speed = 22 mph

Second ship speed = 34 mph

Distance covered by first ship after 1.2 hours = 22×1.2 = 26.4 miles = b

Distance covered by second ship after 1.2 hours = 34×1.2 = 40.8 miles = c

Here the angle between the two sides of a triangle is 110° so from the law of cosines we get

a² = b²+c²-2bc cosθ

⇒a² = 26.4²+40.8²-2×26.4×40.8 cos110

⇒a² = 2408.4

⇒a = 49.07 miles
