Answer:

S_d = 5 + 3*t

S_a = 4.2*t

t = 5 / 1.2 = 4.17 s

17.514 m

Explanation:

Given:

- The initial position of Duane s_i = 5

- The speed with which Duane runs v_d = 3 m/s

- The speed with which Albert runs v_a = 4.2 m/s

Find:

a) Write an expression for Duane's position in terms of t and vduane.

b. Write an expression for Albert's position in terms of t and valbert.

c. At what time does Albert catch up to Duane?

d. How far from Albert's starting point are they when they meet?

Solution:

- The position of Duane from start is:

S_d = s_i + v_d*t

S_d = 5 + 3*t

- The position of Albert from start is:

S_a = s_i + v_d*t

S_a = 0 + 4.2*t = 4.2*t

- When Albert catches up-to Duane their positions are equal.

S_a = S_d

5 + 3*t = 4.2*t

1.2*t = 5

t = 5 / 1.2 = 4.17 s

- The distance at which they meet is governed by time t calculated in part above:

S_a = 4.2*(4.17) = 17.514 m

Answer:

The answer to your question is:

Explanation:

Data

Duane Albert

d = 5 m ; v = 3 m/s v = 4.2 m/s

a) b)

Duane's Albert's

d = 5 + (3)t d = 4.2t

d = 5 + 3t

c) 5 + 3t = 4.2t

4.2t - 3t = 5

1.2t = 5

t = 4.17 s

Duane's

d= 5 + 3(4.17)

d = 17.51 m

Alberts

d = 4.2(4.17)

d = 17.51 m

What total mass must be converted into energy

Eduardwww [97]

This question apparently wants you to get comfortable
with E = m c² . But I must say, this question is a lame
way to do it.

c = 3 x 10⁸ m/s
E = m c²

   1.03 x 10⁻¹³ joule = (m) (3 x 10⁸ m/s)²

Divide each side by (3 x 10⁸ m/s)²:

   Mass = (1.03 x 10⁻¹³ joule) / (9 x 10¹⁶ m²/s²)

   = (1.03 / 9) x (10⁻¹³ ⁻ ¹⁶) (kg)

   = 1.144 x 10⁻³⁰ kg . (choice-1)

This is roughly the mass of (1 and 1/4) electrons, so it seems
that it could never happen in nature. The question is just an
exercise in arithmetic, and not a particularly interesting one.
______________________________________

Something like this could have been much more impressive:

The Braidwood Nuclear Power Generating Station in northeastern
Ilinois USA serves Chicago and northern Illinois with electricity.
<span>The station has two pressurized water reactors, which can generate
a net total of 2,242 megawatts at full capacity, making it the largest
nuclear plant in the state.
If the Braidwood plant were able to completely convert mass
to energy, how much mass would it need to convert in order
to provide the total electrical energy that it generates in a year,
operating at full capacity ?

Energy = (2,242 x 10⁶ joule/sec) x (86,400 sec/day) x (365 da/yr)

   = (2,242 x 10⁶ x 86,400 x 365) joules

   = 7.0704 x 10¹⁶ joules .

How much converted mass is that ?

   E = m c²

Divide each side by c² : Mass = E / c² .
c = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

    Mass = (7.0704 x 10¹⁶ joules) / (9 x 10¹⁶ m²/s²)

      = 0.786 kilogram ! ! !

THAT should impress us ! If I've done the arithmetic correctly,
then roughly (1 pound 11.7 ounces) of mass, if completely
converted to energy, would provide all the energy generated
by the largest nuclear power plant in Illinois, operating at max
capacity for a year !

Question 4 options: The steps that lead you from dependence to independence are referred to as The _________ to Lifetime Fitness

Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

Stairway.

Explanation:

The steps that lead you from dependence to independence are referred to as the stairway to Lifetime Fitness, Health, and Wellness.

This ultimately implies that, these stairway or steps are very important and essential for all humans who seek Lifetime Fitness, Health, and Wellness.

A good health can be defined as the state of well-being (wellness) in which all of the components of an individual's health are balanced. These state of wellness comprises of six (6) important components and they are;

1. Physical: this is a measure of the state of an individual's body or the way the body functions. It is enhanced by eating right, working out or exercising, avoiding drugs and alcohol, maintaining a good body mass index etc.

2. Emotional: this deals with the state of an individual's mind being void of worries, negativity etc.

3. Social: this involves keeping a good relationship with friends, family and many others around.

4. Environmental: it deals with maintaining a hygienic surrounding, that is devoid of pollutants.

5. Mental or intellectual: avoiding unnecessary stress and anxiety while dealing or coping with the realities of life.

6. Spiritual: it encompasses belief systems, values, ideals, morality etc.

Hence, when an individual is able to balance all of these above mentioned components, then he or she is said to be healthy.
