Average speed = (total distance) / (time to cover the distance)

We know:

    Average speed = 65 km/hr
    Total distance = 1,000 km 
    Time to cover it = (Driving Time) + 4 hours.

so we can write:

          65 km/hr  =  (1,000 km) / (Driving Time + 4hr)

          (I'm going to start calling the driving time 'DT'.
           Notice that DT is a number with the units of 'hours'.)

Multiply each side by    (DT + 4hr)

           (65 km/hr) (DT + 4hr)  =  1,000 km   

Eliminate parentheses on the left side:

           (65·DT km  +  260 km)  =  1,000 km

Subtract  260km  from each side:

              65·DT km          =    740 km

Divide each side by 65 :

                DT   =   11.38 hours .

DT (Driving Time) is the time you spent actually driving.
You had to cover the complete 1,000 km in that time.
So while you were driving, you had to do it at a speed of

                  1,000 km / 11.38 hrs  =  87.8 km/hr .
__________________________________________

As long as we're already totally bored by this question,
let's work on it some more, and check my answer:

... Driving for 11.38 hours at a speed of 87.8 km/hr, you cover

                     (11.38 hr) x (87.8 km/hr)  =  999.164 km  (close enough to 1,000) .

So far, so good.  The distance is taken care of.

With the 4-hour stop, the total trip takes 4 more hours = 15.38 hours.
So the average speed is

                     (1,000 km) / (15.38 hr)  =   65.02 km/hr

                                                                Close enough to 65 km/hr.  yay !

im no scientist but im pretty sure cool stars are warm colors and hot stars are cool colors, so red would be more cooler than blue.

Having landed on a newly discovered planet, an astronaut sets up a simple pendulum of length 1.38 m and finds that it makes 441
Tasya [4]
The period of a simple pendulum is given by:
T=2 \pi  \sqrt{ \frac{L}{g} }
where L is the pendulum length, and g is the gravitational acceleration of the planet. Re-arranging the formula, we get:
g= \frac{4 \pi^2}{T^2}L (1)

We already know the length of the pendulum, L=1.38 m, however we need to find its period of oscillation.

We know it makes N=441 oscillations in t=1090 s, therefore its frequency is
f= \frac{N}{t}= \frac{441}{1090 s}=0.40 Hz
And its period is the reciprocal of its frequency:
T= \frac{1}{f}= \frac{1}{0.40 Hz}=2.47 s

So now we can use eq.(1) to find the gravitational acceleration of the planet:
g= \frac{4 \pi^2}{T^2}L =  \frac{4 \pi^2}{(2.47 s)^2} (1.38 m) =8.92 m/s^2
