Answer:

165 minutes

Explanation:

We can break the numbers into prime numbers

15 = 3 * 5

33 = 3 * 11

55 = 5 * 11

The shortest time that must pass before they are all together again would be the least multiple that is divisible by all 3 number, which is

3 * 5 * 11 = 165

Hence after 165 minutes the 3 cars should all meet together again.

Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

  • 62 seconds
  • no

Explanation:

The total travel time Suzette experiences is the sum of the times in each hallway. Using

  time = distance/speed

we can add the times.

  (35.0 m)/(3.50 m/s) +(48.0 m)/(1.20 m/s) +(60 m)/(5.0 m/s)

  = 10 s + 40 s + 12 s

  = 62 s

It takes Suzette 62 seconds to get to class. She does not beat the bell.

You have designed a rocket to be used to sample the local atmosphere for pollution. It is fired vertically with a constant upwar
ira [324]

Answer:

the highest point the rocket reaches is y_{max}=11,167.35meters=11.17km

Explanation:

Hi

First of all we are going to use y=\frac{at^{2} }{2} while the engine is on, so y=\frac{19m/s^{2}(20s)^{2}  }{2}=3800m.

Second, we're going to find the speed as the engine shuts off, so we havev=a*t=(19m/s)(20s)=380m/s

Third, we need the time when the rocket reaches max high after engine turns off, to do that we use v=v_{0} -gt=380m/s-9.8m/s^{2} (t), then we isolate t, t=\frac{380m/s}{9.8m/s^{2} } =38.77s

Finally we can find highest point by using y=y_{0} +v_{0} *t-\frac{g*t^{2} }{2} =3800m+380m/s*(38.77s)-\frac{9.8m/s^{2}*(38.77s)^{2}  }{2}=11167.35m

jekas [21]

Answer: The potential energy of both toy vehicles (purple and pink) decreased. Since the pink toy was moved closer to the magnet, it will have less potential energy because of the short distance it will take to travel to the magnet.
