Sally and Ramona were competing in a four-lap, one-mile foot race. Sally’s style was to run at a constant rate of 12 mph. Ramona

decided to run her first three laps at 11 mph, and save a ‘kick’ in order to run a 16 mph pace for the fourth and final lap. Who wins the race, and by how many minutes or seconds?

Sally wins the race by 0.03 min

Explanation:

To find time = distance / velocity

Sally;

1 mile / 12 mph

= ¹/12 hrs * 60

= 5 min

Ramona;

³/4 mile ÷ 11 mph  +  ¹/4 mile ÷ 16 mph

= ³/44 hrs + ¹/64 hrs

= 4.09 min + 0.94 min

= 5.03 min

Describe one common critique or criticism of Utilitarianism. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this criticism?
lisabon 2012 [21]
The second most common criticism of utilitarianism is that it is impossible to apply - that happiness (etc) cannot be quantified or measured, that there is no way of calculating a trade-off between intensity and extent, or intensity and probability (etc), or comparing happiness to suffering.

Calculate the amount of momentum of an object with a mass of 10 kg travelling al a
irina [24]

Answer:

50kg.m/s

Explanation:

In order to find momentum you must use the formula P=mv

p= momentum

m=mass

v= velocity

so in other words, momentum= mass times velocity

or in this case, momentum= 10 times 5  :)

adell [148]

Answer:

A boxed 14.0 kg computer monitor is dragged by friction 5.50 m up along the moving surface of a conveyor belt inclined at an angle of 36.9 ∘ above the horizontal. The monitor's speed is a constant 2.30 cm/s.

how much work is done on the monitor by (a) friction, (b) gravity

work(friction) = 453.5J

work(gravity) = -453.5J

Explanation:

Given that,

mass = 14kg

displacement length = 5.50m

displacement angle = 36.9°

velocity = 2.30cm/s

F = ma

work(friction) = mgsinθ .displacement

                      = (14) (9.81) (5.5sin36.9°)

                       = 453.5J

work(gravity)

= the influence of gravity oppose the motion of the box and can be pushing down, on the box from and angle of (36.9° + 90°)

= 126.9°

work(gravity) = (14) (9.81) (5.5cos126.9°)

                      = -453.5J
