Explanation:

We have,

Ajoba and Prav drive to work. Ajoba drives 45 miles in 2.5 hours. Prav drives 74 km in 1 hour 15 min.

1 mile = 1.6 km

45 miles = 72.42 km

74 miles = 119.0 km

1 hour 15 min means 1.25 hours

Average speed of Ajoba is :

v_1=\dfrac{72.42 }{2.5}=28.96\ km/h

Average speed of Prav,

v_2=\dfrac{119}{1.25}=95.2\ km/h

Difference in average speed of Ajoba and Prav is :

v=v_2-v_1\\\\v=v_2-v_1\\\\v=95.2-28.96\\\\v=66.24\ km/h

So, the difference in average speed of Ajoba and Prav is 66.24 km/h.

In boxing, the use of 16-ounce gloves rather than 12-ounce gloves reduces the chance of injury because the force is distributed
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

true

Explanation:

Here we have assumed that increasing the mass of a glove will increase the surface area.

Injury is caused by the application of pressure at a point on the body. The application of pressure takes place via the area of the gloves. Pressure is given by

P=\dfrac{F}{A}

where

F = Force

A = Area to which the force is applied

So, a bigger glove will increase the surface area and reduce the pressure resulting in a lower chance of injury.

Hence, the statement is true.

Hooke’s law describes the linear relationship between stress and strain through Young’s modulus. Given two materials under the s
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

The material with higher modulus will stretch less than

The material with lower modulus

Explanation:

A material with a higher modulus is stiffer and has better resistance to deformation. The modulus is defined as the force per unit area required to produce a deformation or in other words the ratio of stress to strain.

E= stress/stain

Hooks law states that provided the elastic limit is not exceeded the extension e of a spring is directly proportional to the load or force attached

F=ke

Where k is the constant which gives the measure of the spring under tension
