Near the end of a marathon race, the first two runners are separated by a distance of 45.6 m. The front runner has a velocity of

3.1 m/s, and the second a velocity of 4.65 m/s. How many seconds earlier will the second runner reach the finish line if the front runner is 250 m from the finish line in seconds?

Answer:17.08 s

Explanation:

Given

distance between First and second Runner is 45.6 m

speed of first runner(v_1)=3.1 m/s

speed of second runner(v_2)=4.65 m/s

Distance between first runner and finish line is 250 m

Second runner need to run a distance of 250+45.6=295.6 m

Time required by second runner t=\frac{295.6}{4.65}=63.56 s

time required by first runner to reach finish line=\frac{250}{3.1}=80.64 s

Thus second runner reach the finish line 80.64-63.56=17.08 s earlier

disa [49]

Answer:

Answer:

the amount of energy flowing is 1.008x10⁹J

Explanation:

To calculate how much heat flows, the expression is the following:

Where

K=thermal conductivity=0.81W/m°C

A=area=6.2*12=74.4m²

ΔT=30-8=22°C

L=thickness=8cm=0.08m

t=time=16.9h=60840s

Which is the result of using a machine?
Eddi Din [679]
Correct Answers is A.

The machines gives us some mechanical advantage. This means the mechanical average makes the work output greater than the work input
Simple most example is a lever. The force applied is smaller and the output work is larger as compared to input.

Option B cannot be true, as there must be a force to get some work done.
Option C and D are inverse of what a machine is designed for. A small force can be exerted through a large distance to have a large force exerted through a small distance. Common Example of this principle is a screw opener.

How does an ice cube melt when you hold it in your hand?
dezoksy [38]
The heat from your hand causes the ice molecules to heat up and become more active. This lowers the stability of the ice cube compound causing it to melt.
