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.

Which change will always result in an increase in the gravitational force between two objects?
lora16 [44]

The gravitational force of two objects, by definition, is given by:

F = G * (\frac{m1m2}{d ^ 2})

Where,

G: gravitational constant

m1: mass of object number 1.

m2: mass of object number 2.

d: distance between both objects.

Therefore, according to the given equation, a change that always results in an increase in gravitational force is:

Increase in the mass of the objects and decrease in the distance between them.

Answer:

A change that will always result in an increase in the gravitational force between two objects is:

Increase in the mass of the objects and decrease in the distance between them.

Richard is driving home to visit his parents. 135 mi of the trip are on the interstate highway where the speed limit is 65 mph .
Elis [28]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

He saves 13.2 minutes

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Hey! The question is incomplete, but it can be found on the internet. The question is:

How many minutes did he save?

Let's call:

t_{1}:Time \ at \ speed \ 65mph \\ \\ t_{2}:Time \ at \ speed \ 73mph \\ \\ v_{1}=65mph \\ \\ v_{2}=73mph

We know that the 135 miles are on the interstate highway where the speed limit is 65 mph. From this, we can calculate the time it takes to drive on this highway. Assuming Richard maintains constant the speed:

v=\frac{d}{t} \\ \\ d:distance \\ \\ t:time \\ \\ v:velocity \\ \\ t_{1}=\frac{d}{v_{1}} \\ \\ t=\frac{135}{65} \\ \\ t_{1}=2.07 \ hours

Today he is running late and decides to take his chances by driving at 73 mph, so the new time it takes to take the trip is:

t_{2}=\frac{135}{73} \\ \\ t_{2}=1.85 \ hours

So he saves the time t_{s}:

t_{s}=t_{1}-t_{2}=2.07-1.85=0.22 \ hours

In minutes:

t_{s}=0.22h\left(\frac{60min}{1h}\right) \\ \\ \boxed{t_{s}=13.2min}
