Answer:

520 miles per hour

Explanation:

Let the speed of the Boeing 747 be x miles per hour.

The small airplane covers distance of 780 miles with speed 260 miles per hour.

Also,

After 1.5 hours the Boeing 747 leave the same place and reaches at same time. Both covered distance of 780 miles.

So,

<u>Time taken by Boeing 747 + 1.5 hours = Time taken by small plane.</u>

Also,

Time =  Distance/ speed

So,

780 / x + 1.5 = 780/ 260

Solving for x, we get:

<u>x = 520 miles per hour</u>

leva [86]
Galaxies are much further apart than stars. This is the reason why they are less likely to collide and the likelihood of galactic collision is much smaller  than the likelihood of stellar collision. Example for galaxy collision is the collision of the Milky Way galaxy with Andromeda. It is estimated that the collision will be <span>in about 4.5 billion years. </span>

An object begins with a speed of 20 meters per second and slows down to a speed of 10 meters per second over a time of 5 seconds
Andreyy89

Answer:

V = 6 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed of an object is 20 m/s

Final speed of an object is 10 m/s

Time, t = 5 s

We need to find the average speed of the object during these 5 seconds. Let it is equal to V. Here, time is same. The average speed is given by :

V=\dfrac{x+y}{2}\\\\\text{Putting values}\\\\V=\dfrac{20+10}{5}\\\\V=6\ m/s

So, the average speed of the object is 6 m/s.

For a specific volume of 0.2 m3/kg, find the quality of steam if the absolute pressure is (a) 40 kPa and (b) 630 kPa. What is th
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

x=0.0498

x'=0.659

Explanation:

Specific Volume V=0.2m_3/kg

Absolute Pressure (a) P_a= 40kpa

Giving

T_a=75.87

v_f=1.265*10^{-3}m^3/kg

v_g=3.993m^3/kg

                               (b) P_a= 630kpa

Giving

T_b=160.13C

v_f'=1.10282*10^{-3} m^3/kg

v_g'=0.30286 m^3/kg

(a)

Generally the equation for quality of Steam X  is mathematically given by

x=\frac{v-v_f}{v_g-v_f}

x=\frac{0.2-1.0265*10^{-3}}{3.993-1.0265*10^{-3}}

x=0.0498

(b)

Generally the equation for quality of Steam X  is mathematically given by

x'=\frac{v-v_f'}{v_g'-v_f'}

x'=\frac{0.2-1.10*10^{-3}}{3.30-1.1*10^{-3}}

x'=0.659
