In reaching her destination, a backpacker walks with an average velocity of 1.22 m/s, due west. This average velocity results be

cause she hikes for 6.44 km with an average velocity of 2.53 m/s, due west, turns around, and hikes with an average velocity of 0.445 m/s, due east. How far east did she walk?
Can someone please help me please? I really really need help on this please!!!!

Wow! 2.95m/s is a mighty fast pace for a backpacker. Must have one of those Star Wars anti-gravity packs. Also, I would be curious as to why she passed her destination and then walked back. 
<span>Anyway, it goes like this: </span>
<span>Say the time walking east is 't', and the total time is 'T'. </span>
<span>Then 5340 m + .511 t = 1.43 T </span>
<span>(This assumes that velocity is positive in both directions) </span>
<span>Two unknowns in one equation. But you also know that the time spent walking west is </span>
<span>5340m/ 2.95m/s = 1810 sec. </span>
<span>and the total time T = 1810 +t </span>
<span>Substitute this into the first equation, and you can solve for t = 3092 sec. </span>
<span>Then T = 4902 sec. and distance walked east is .511t = 1580m.</span>

Capacitance = k x ε° x area / separation 
ε° = 8.854 10^-12 F/ m 
k = 2.4max 
average k = 0.78 / 1.27 * 2.4 +(1.27- 0.78) / 1.27 * 1 = 1.474 + 0.386 = 1.86 
(61.4 % separation k = 2.4 --- 38.6 % k = 1 air --- average k = 0.614 * 2.34 + 0.386 * 1 = 1.86 
area = 145 cm2 = 0.0145 m2 
separation = 1.27 cm 0.0127 m 

C = 1.86 * 8.854 10^-12 * 0.0145 / 0.0127 = 18.8 pF

You are watching a television show about Navy pilots. The narrator says that when a Navy jet takes off, the average force on the jet is due to the catapult is mathematically given as

What is the average force on the jet is due to the catapult?

Generally, the equation for acceleration is mathematically given as

a=\frac{vf^2-vi^2}{2s}\\\\\Therefore\\\\a=\frac{69.29^2-0^2}{2(90}\\\\a=26.673m/s^2

In conclusion, The force

F=m*a

F=15100*26.673

F=40272.3N

F 402 KN

An atom of a certain element has 36 protons, 36 electrons, and a mass number of 84. At room temperature, this element is a very
Grace [21]

Answer:

12 neutrons

Explanation:

The number of protons also shows the atomic number. Therefore the element in question is Krypton (Kr), which also is a noble gas.

Neutrons = Mass number - protons - electrons

Here neutrons = 84 - 36 - 36 = 12

Suppose that you are taking a course in geometry. You are trying to determine whether two geometric shapes are identical, so you
Nataly_w [17]

Explanation:

Yes, in order to determine whether two geometric figures are identical or not we tend to rotate one of the figure clockwise or anti clock wise mentally. However, in clockwise rotation larger the angel more will be the time taken for instance, it will take longer to rotate 120° than to rotate 40°. Whereas in anti clockwise ration it will be vice versa.
