A tortoise and a hare engage in a race. A tortoise can run with a speed of 0.15 m/s. A hare can run 25 times as fast as the tort

oise. In the race, they start at the same time; however, the hare being very proud of his much higher speed stops for a nap for 5.0 minutes. The tortoise wins the race by 35 cm. (a) What is the length of the race? (b) How long does the race take?

Answer:

Explanation:

The speed of hare = .15 x 25 = 3.75 m /s . Let tortoise took t second to complete the race .

Distance traveled by it = .15 t

Distance traveled by hare = .15 t - .35 m

Time taken by hare to complete this distance

=  t - 5 x 60 s

Speed of hare

= Distance / time

( .15t-.35 ) / t - 300 , so

\frac{.15t-.35}{t-300} = 3.75

t = 312.40

= 5 minutes 12.4 seconds

Distance of race

312.4 x speed of tortoise

= 312.4 x .15

= 46.85 m

Your ear is capable of differentiating sounds that arrive at each ear just 0.34 ms apart, which is useful in determining where l
goblinko [34]

Answer:

Δt = 5.29 x 10⁻⁴ s = 0.529 ms

Explanation:

The simple formula of the distance covered in uniform motion can be used to find the interval between when the sound arrives at the right ear and the sound arrives at the left ear.

\Delta s = v\Delta t\\\\\Delta t = \frac{\Delta s}{v}

where,

Δt = required time interval = ?

Δs = distance between ears = 18 cm = 0.18 m

v = speed of sound = 340 m/s

Therefore,

\Delta t = \frac{0.18\ m}{340\ m/s}

<u>Δt = 5.29 x 10⁻⁴ s = 0.529 ms</u>

State the 3 laws of motion
Georgia [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Newton's first law of motion:

An object in motion stays in motion, and an object at rest stays at rest, until acted upon by an unbalanced force.

Newton's second law:

The net force on an object is equal to its mass times its acceleration.

Newton's third law:

For every action, there is an opposite and equal reaction.
