1. Use the formula S(d)=√9.8d to calculate the estimated speed, in meters per second, of a tsunami if the disturbance occurred a

t an ocean depth of 4,500 meters.
2. Convert the answer from question one from meters per second to kilometers per hour. (Hint: A meter per second is equal to 3.6 kilometers per hour.)

Answer: 1. 210 meters per second .

2.  756  kilometers per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The formula S(d)=\sqrt{9.8d} to calculate the estimated speed, in meters per second of a tsunami.

1. If the disturbance occurred at an ocean depth of 4,500 meters.

Then put d= 4500 in the above formula , we get

S(d)=\sqrt{9.8\times4500}

S(d)=\sqrt{44100}=\sqrt{21\times21\times10\times10}\\\\=\sqrt{210^2}=210

Hence, if the disturbance occurred at an ocean depth of 4,500 meters , the estimated speed would be 210 meters per second .

Also, A meter per second is equal to 3.6 kilometers per hour.

i.e. 1 meter per second = 3.6 kilometers per hour

Then by unitary method ,

210 meters per second  =3.6\times210 kilometers per hour

=756  kilometers per hour.

the length of a rectangular garden is 5 feet longer than its width. The garden is surrounded by a 2-foot-wide sidewalk. The side
SVETLANKA909090 [29]
<span>he width is 5 feet and the length 10 feet 

Let the width of the garden = W 
Therefore the length = W + 5 

The two sidewalks alongside the length are therefore W + 5 feet long by 2 feet wide = 2(W + 5) square feet each 
The 2 sidewalks alongside the width = W feet long by 2 feet wide = 2W square feet each 
In addition there are the 4 corners which are each 2 feet by 2 feet = 4 square feet each 
Area of sidewalk is therefore 

2 * lengths = 2 * 2(W + 5) = 4W + 20 
2 * widths = 2 * 2W = 4W 
4 corners = 4 * 4 = 16 square feet 
But we are told that the area = 76 square feet 
Therefore 4W + 20 + 4W + 16 = 76 
8W + 36 = 76 
8W = 40 
W = 5 
Therefore as the width is five feet the length is 5 + 5 = 10 feet</span><span>
