First convert the speed of mosquito to m/s:

So the mosquito is flying at (2,400/3,600) m/s, or ⅔ m/s. 

<span>

Since you are moving at 2m/s, so this makes the closing velocity between you and the mosquito to be 2⅔ m/s. </span>

Therefore the mosquito will hit your sunglasses at:<span>

35 m / (2⅔ m/s) = 13⅛ seconds. 

2.0 m/s * 13⅛ s = 26¼ m from your initial position. 

<span>⅔ m/s * 13⅛ s = 8¾ m from the mosquito's initial position. </span></span>

Why are bathroom tiles usually rough
Aleks04 [339]
-- Bathroom tiles are usually cool, so water condenses on them
when you take a hot bath or shower in the room. 

-- The natural result is that a smooth tile would become slippery,
exactly when you're walking around with wet feet and nothing on them ...
a dangerous situation.

-- In order to circumvent this safety hazard, the tiles in the bathroom
should be rough, especially on the floor.

What does it mean if the moon is waxing and waning
konstantin123 [22]
Both verbs come from Olde English. 
That's why everybody clearly understood their meaning until
a hundred years ago, but nobody understands them now.


"Waxing"  =  growing

For two weeks after the New Moon, it's growing toward Full.
First it's a waxing crescent for a week, then it's waxing gibbous.


"Waning"  =  shrinking

For two weeks after the Full Moon, it's shrinking toward New.
First it's waning gibbous for a week, then it's a waning crescent.

How much heat is required to raise 100 grams of water (c= 4.18) by 5 degrees Celsius?
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

Heat capacity, Q = 2090 Joules.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 100 grams

Specific heat capacity = 4.18 J/g°C.

Temperature = 5°C

To find the quantity of heat required;

Heat capacity is given by the formula;

Q = mct

Where;

Q represents the heat capacity or quantity of heat.

m represents the mass of an object.

c represents the specific heat capacity of water.

t represents the temperature of an object.

Substituting into the formula, we have;

Q = 100*4.18*5

Heat capacity, Q = 2090 Joules.
