Answer:

Explanation:

We also know that, v = S/t which can be rewritten as v * t = S

Where,

v = velocity

S = distance

t = time

i. v1*t = S1

ii. v2*t = S2

iii. s1 + s2 = 3000

Substituting i and ii into equation iii,

St = S1 + S2

v1*t + v2*t = 3000

650*t + 550*t = 3000

1200*t = 3000

t = 3000/1200

t = 2.5 h.

Answer:

30 hours

Explanation:

Average speed = distance/time

Let the time taken for each plane to pass each other be t

Average speed of plane that left from New York = 650 mph

Distance covered = 650t miles

Average speed of plane that left from Mexico = 550 mph

Distance covered = 550t miles

Distance apart = 3000 miles

650t - 550t = 3000

100t = 3000

t = 3000/100 = 30 hours

In the apple-pulling-the orange sequence in this chapter, what is the force that accelerates the system across the floor?.
Montano1993 [528]

In the apple-pulling-the orange sequence in this chapter, the force that accelerates the system across the floor is;

Friction between the apple and the floor.

<h3>Frictional Force</h3>

The sequence talked about here is a system showing how an apple was pulling an orange that was located inside a moving toy.

Now, we know that there is usually a force that acts between a moving object and the floor and this force is called friction force.

Thus, the force that makes the apple to pull the orange with acceleration across the floor is called friction force between the apple and the floor.

If we wish to expand (x + y) 8 , what is the coefficient of x 5 y 3 ? what is the coefficient of x 3 y 5 ?
Molodets [167]
We use the binomial theorem to answer this question. Suppose we have a trinomial (a + b)ⁿ, we can determine any term to be:

[n!/(n-r)!r!] a^(r) b^(n-r)

a.) For x⁵y³, the variables are: x=a and y=b. We already know the exponents of the variables. So, we equate this with the form of the binomial theorem.

r = 5
n - r = 3
Solving for n,
n = 3 + 5 = 8

Therefore, the coefficient is equal to:
Coefficient = n!/(n-r)!r! = 8!/(8-5)!8! = 56

b.) For x³y⁵, the variables are: x=a and y=b. We already know the exponents of the variables. So, we equate this with the form of the binomial theorem.

r = 3
n - r = 5
Solving for n,
n = 5 + 3 = 8

Therefore, the coefficient is equal to:
Coefficient = n!/(n-r)!r! = 8!/(8-3)!8! = 56

Three capacitors, C1 = 2 μF, C2 = 4 μF, C3 = 4 μF, are connected in series Determine the capacitance of a single capacitor that
julsineya [31]

Answer:

1 μF

Explanation:

To obtain the answer to the question, all we need to do is to calculate the equivalent capacitance of the capacitors. This can be obtained as illustrated below.

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Capacitor 1 (C₁) = 2 μF

Capacitor 2 (C₂) = 4 μF

Capacitor 3 (C₃) = 4 μF

Equivalent capacitance (Cₑq) =?

Cₑq = 1/C₁ + 1/C₂ + 1/C₃

Cₑq = 1/2 + 1/4 + 1/4

Cₑq = (2 + 1 + 1)/4

Cₑq = 4/4

Cₑq = 1 μF

Thus, the answer to the question is 1 μF
