Answer:

distance between Rome to Sorrento is 240 miles

Explanation:

given data

speed = 80 mph

time = 5 hours

reduce speed = 60 mph

to find out

distance between Rome to Sorrento

solution

let us consider time from Rome to Sorrento is x

we know 8 am to 8 pm total 12 hours and 5 hours in town spend so 12 -5 = 7

so we say that time back is 7 -x

we know distance was same

so distance is speed × time

compare both side distance

80 x  = 60 (7-x)

80 x = 420 - 60 x

x = 3

so distance is = 80 (3)  = 240 miles

distance between Rome to Sorrento is 240 miles

A police car is located 50 feet to the side of a straight road. A red car is driving along the road in the direction of the poli
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:74.33 feet per sec

Explanation:

Given

Police car is 50 feet side of road

Red car is 140 feet up the road

Distance between them is decreasing at the rate of 70 feet per sec

From figure

x^2+y^2=z^2

z=\sqrt{140^2+50^2}

z=148.66 feet

as the red car is moving

therefore its velocity magnitude is given by

\frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}

2x\times \frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}+0=2z\frac{\mathrm{d} z}{\mathrm{d} t}

x\frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}=z\frac{\mathrm{d} z}{\mathrm{d} t}

140\times \frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}=148.66\times 70

\frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}=74.33 feet\ per\ sec

Which describes the average velocity of an ant traveling at a constant speed
yanalaym [24]

Answer: A. The total displacement divided by the time and  C. The slope of the ant's displacement vs. time graph.

Explanation:

Hi! The question seems incomplete, but I found the options on the internt:

A. The total displacement divided by the time.

B. The slope of the ant's acceleration vs. time graph.

C. The slope of the ant's displacement vs. time graph.

D. The average acceleration divided by the time.

Now, since we know the ant is travelling at a constant speed, its average velocity V will be expressed by the following equation:

V=\frac{d}{t}

Where:

d is the ant's total displacement

t is the time it took to the ant to travel to the kitchen

Hence one of the correct options is: A. The total displacement divided by the time

On the other hand, this can be expressed by a displacement vs. time graph graph, where the slope of that line leads to the equation written above. So, the other correct option is: C. The slope of the ant's displacement vs. time graph.

luda_lava [24]

Answer:

500000N/m²

5250N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Depth(H) = 50m

Density of water  = 1000kg/m³

Acceleration of free fall  = 10m/s

Unknown:

Pressure the water exerts on the diver = ?

Solution:

Pressure is the force per unit area on a body. In fluids, pressure is the product of density, gravity and height

  Pressure in fluids  = Density x acceleration due to gravity x height

Input the variables and solve;

    Pressure in fluids  = 1000 x 10 x 50  = 500000N/m²

B.

width of window = 150mm

height of window = 70mm

Force water exerts on the window = ?

To solve this problem;

         Pressure  = \frac{Force}{Area}

Area of the window = width x height  = 150 x 10⁻³ x 70 x 10⁻³

                                                           = 1.05 x 10 ⁻²m²

Force  = pressure x area

Input the variables;

             = 500000N/m²   x  1.05 x 10 ⁻²m²

             = 5250N
