Answer:

The car will travel 30 miles during the 30-minutes period of acceleration.

Explanation:

Given data :

Initial velocity = v₁ = 50 miles/hour

Final velocity = v₂ = 70 miles/hour

Time = t = 30 min = 0.5 hour

Using the definition of acceleration, we find the acceleration (a)

                   a = (v₂ - v₁) ÷ t

                   a = (70 - 50) ÷ 0.5

                   a = 20 ÷ 0.5

                   a = 40 miles/hour²

Using 3rd equation of motion, we find the distance travel (s)

                    2as = v₂² -  v₁²

                    2(40)s = 70² - 50²

                    80 × s = 4900 - 2500

                         s = 2400 ÷ 80

                        s = 30 miles

the first s-wave reaches a seismic station 22 minutes after an earthquake occurred. how long did it take the first p-wave to rea
Naddik [55]

The time taken for the first p-wave to reach the same seismic station is approximately 13 minutes.

<h3>Time of travel of the P-wave</h3>

In rock, S waves generally travel about 60% the speed of P waves, and the S wave always arrives after the P wave.

<h3>Relationship between speed and time</h3>

v ∝ 1/t

v₁t₁ = v₂t₂

t₁/t₂ = v₂/v₁

t₁/t₂ = 0.6v₁/v₁

t₁/t₂ =  0.6

t₁ = 0.6t₂

t₁ = 0.6 x 22 mins

t₁ = 13.2 mins

Thus, the time taken for the first p-wave to reach the same seismic station is approximately 13 minutes.

hjlf

The food substance being used which turned Fehling's solution to brick red is a reducing sugar.

<h3>What is Fehling's solution?</h3>

This is an indicator which is used to test for the presence of reducing sugar or aldehydes in a solution.

Brick red precipitate of copper(I) oxide is formed when it tests positive to compounds such as glucose etc.

A 40 kg person sits on top of a 400 kg rock. What is the person’s weight? 390 N
algol13

The weight of the person is given by:

W = mg

W = weight, m = mass, g = gravitational acceleration

Given values:

m = 40kg, g = 9.81m/s²

Plug in and solve for W:

W = 40(9.81)

W = 390N
