Runner A is initially 5.7 km west of a flagpole and is running with a constant velocity of 8.9 km/h due east. Runner B is initia

lly 4.5 km east of the flagpole and is running with a constant velocity of 7.0 km/h due west. How far are the runners from the flagpole when their paths cross? Answer in units of km.

Answer:

B meet A 0.01 km east of flagpole

Explanation:

given data

distance A = 5.7 km  west

velocity V1 = 8.9 km/h

distance B = 4.5 km  east

velocity V2 = 7 km/h

to find out

How far runners from the flagpole, when paths cross

solution

we know A and B are 5.7 + 4.5 = 10.2 km apart

and we consider here B will run distance x km for meet

so time will be for B is

time B = distance / velocity

time B = x / 7     ...................1

and

for A distance for meet = ( 10.2 - x ) km

so time A = distance / velocity

time A = ( 10.2 - x )  / 8.9      .............2

now equating equation 1 and 2

time A = time B

x / 7  =   ( 10.2 - x )  / 8.9

x = 4.490

so distance of B run for meet is 4.490 km

so distance from the flagpole when their paths cross is 4.5 - 4.490 = 0.01 km

so B meet A 0.01 km east of flagpole

The correct answer is D) sponsoring .

Explanation:

Sponsorship is an advertising strategy that consists of an organization (sponsor) committing to provide financing to a third party (sponsored) in exchange for the presentation of its brand or product.

The sponsorship consists of an agreement or agreement between two people (legal or physical) in which, one of the parties called sponsor, will deliver a consideration (monetary or material) to another sponsored call, so that the latter exposes its brand or product publicly.

Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

Part a)

M = 2.31 \times 10^{30} kg

Part b)

M = 1.15 M_s

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that the period of revolution of the planet is given by

T = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{r^3}{GM}}

now we know that

r = 10.5 \times 10^6 km = 1.05 \times 10^{10} m

T = 6.3 days

T = 5.44 \times 10^5 s

now we have

5.44 \times 10^5 = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{(1.05\times 10^{10})^3}{(6.67 \times 10^{-11})M}}

M = 2.31 \times 10^{30} kg

Part b)

As we know that mass of sun is given as

M_s = 2.0 \times 10^{30} kg

now we have

\frac{M}{M_s} = \frac{2.31 \times 10^{30}}{2 \times 10^{30}}

M = 1.15 M_s
