Answer:

It will take <em>0.75 hours </em>to Russell catch Gertrude

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Cinematics</u>

The equations of cinematics include velocity, displacement and time. In case only the magnitudes are important, we can use the concepts of speed and distance. The speed can be thought in relative terms, i.e. if one body moves at 10 m/s and other moves at 8 m/s, we can say the relative speed is 2 m/s.

The equation who relates those magnitudes is

x=vt

The problem states Gertrude travels at 10 mph and is 3 miles ahead of Russell who travels at 14 mph. We want to know the time when Russell will catch Gertrude. Since Russell goes faster than Gertrude, he eventually catches her. In a time t, he must travel 3 miles more than her. Since the relative speed of them is 14-10= 4 mph, we can know the time it takes to the encounter to produce

\displaystyle t=\frac{x}{v}

\displaystyle t=\frac{3}{4}=0.75\ hours

Answer: It will take 0.75 hours to Russell catch Gertrude

The price for each notebook is p. The number of the
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:  price of total notebooks = p(a+b+c) or pa+pb+pc= price of total notebooks

Step-by-step explanation:

you have to add all the number of notebooks or a b and c and then multiply it by the price of each notebook. there are multiple ways to do this but those are the ways I could think of.

 if a=2, b=3 and c=6 then you have to add 2+3+6 to equal 11 then multiply 11 by the price of each notebook, say p=$4.50  your equation would be 4.50*11 which is $49.50, and that would be the total of all the notebooks. these numbers metaphorical of course, but hope that puts it into perspective.

Elis [28]

Answer:

<em>f(10) or the power generated by the wind turbine at the wind speed of 10 m/s is </em><em>190.26 kW</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The given polynomial function is,

f(x) = 0.08x^3 + x^2 + x + 0.26

where,

x represents the wind speed in meters per second,

y represents the kilowatts generated.

Putting x=10, we can get the value of f(10).

So,

=f(10)

= 0.08(10)^3 + (10)^2 + (10) + 0.26

= 0.08(1000) + (100) + (10) + 0.26

= 80 + 100 + 10 + 0.26

=190.26

Therefore,at x=10 or when the wind speed is 10 m/s, then y or the power generated by the wind turbine will be 190.26 kW
