A driver averaged 64 mph and took 3½ hours to travel from st. Louis to chicago. Based on this, what is the distance between st.

Louis and chicago
Physics

sammy [17]4 years ago

Average speed of the driver is given as

v = 64 mph

if he moved for total time t = 3.5 hours

so the distance between the tow is given as

d = v* t

d = 64 * 3.5

d = 224 miles

so the distance between St. Louis and Chicago is 224 miles

How do we know that salt mixing with water is not a chemical change?
taurus [48]

Explanation:

In contrast, dissolving a covalent compound like sugar does not result in a chemical reaction. When sugar is dissolved, the molecules disperse throughout the water, but they do not change their chemical identity.

An object is moving but we don't know its mass or velocity. A force of 20 newtons to the right
jok3333 [9.3K]

The impulse is (force) x (time) = (20 N) x (20 sec) = 400 N-sec

When we grind through the units, we find that the [newton-second]
is exactly the same as the [kilogram-meter/sec] unit-wise, and once
we know that, it doesn't surprise us to learn that impulse is equivalent
to a change in momentum (mass x speed ... also kg-m/s).

So this impulse exerted on the moving object adds 400 kg-m/s of
linear momentum to its motion, directed to the right.  That may or
may not be the total change in its momentum during that 20-sec,
because our 20-N may not be the only force acting on it.

On a straight road (taken to be in the x direction) you drive for an hour at 60 km per hour, then quickly speed up to 120 km per
Luda [366]

Answer:

The average velocity is 180 km/hr

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity, u = 60 km per hour

final velocity, v = 120 km per hour

initial time = 1 hour

final time = 2 hour

Initial position = 60 km/h x 1 hour = 60 km

final position = 120 km/h x 2 hour = 240 km

The average velocity is given by;

V_{avg} = \frac{Final \ position\  - \ Initial \ position}{final \ time\  - \ initial \ time}\\\\V_{avg} = \frac{240km \ - \ 60km}{2hr\  - \ 1hr} \\\\V_{avg} = \frac{180 \ km}{1hr} \\\\V_{avg}= 180 \ km/hr

Therefore, the average velocity is 180 km/hr

Contrast the atmosphere with the biosphere
4vir4ik [10]

The biosphere contains all the planet's living things. This sphere includes all of the microorganisms, plants, and animals of Earth. Within the biosphere, living things form ecological communities based on the physical surroundings of an area. These communities are referred to as biomes. Deserts, grasslands, and tropical rainforests are three of the many types of biomes that exist within the biosphere.

The atmosphere contains all the air in Earth's system. It extends from less than 1 m below the planet's surface to more than 10,000 km above the planet's surface. The upper portion of the atmosphere protects the organisms of the biosphere from the sun's ultraviolet radiation. It also absorbs and emits heat. When air temperature in the lower portion of this sphere changes, weather occurs. As air in the lower atmosphere is heated or cooled, it moves around the planet. The result can be as simple as a breeze or as complex as a tornado.
