Answer:

The time of oil tanker will be 80 sec.

Explanation:

Given that,

He walks at 3 km/hour.

If the container ship is 100 m long, and travelling at 12 km/hour.

The distance will be 200 m.

We need to calculate the relative velocity

Using formula of relative velocity

v_{21}=v_{2}-v_{1}

Put the value into the formula

v_{21}=12-3

v_{21}=9\ km/h

The distance is 200 m.

We need to calculate the time

Using formula of time

v=\dfrac{d}{t}

t=\dfrac{d}{v}

Put the value into the formula

t=\dfrac{200}{9\times\dfrac{5}{18}}

t=80 sec

Hence, The time of oil tanker will be 80 sec.

expeople1 [14]

Answer:

53.33 hours or 53 hours and 20 minutes.

Explanation:

Given, one travels at 45 miles/hr and another 30 miles/hour.  

Let, the slower broom, S1 = 30t

According to the Question,

S1 + 800 = 45t....... (1)

S1 = 45t - 800......(2)

t is constant for because time is equal for both.  

Now, putting (1) in equation (2),

30t = 45t - 800

30t - 45t = - 800

15t = 800

t = 53.33  

So, the answer is 53.33 hours.

Viktor [21]

Answer:

D. the president's role in foreign policy had not yet been specifically defined.

Explanation:

The Constitution does not explicitly state that the President has sole authority over foreign policy, and so at this point in history it was still unclear exactly how much power the President actually had in regards to international affairs. Washington didn't want to take a position on such a contentious issue without knowing for sure that he could back up his stance with actual authority.

. Qual a figura de linguagem presente na frase "As mãos que dizem adeus são pássaros que vão morrendo lentamente.", de Mário Qui
Allushta [10]

Answer:

b) metáfora

Explanation:

A metáfora é uma figura de linguagem que expressa uma comparação implícita e subjuntiva entre dois termos que não tem relação direta. Na frase mostrada na pergunta acima, podemos perceber a metáfora quando o poeta compara as "mãos que dizem adeus" com os "pássaros que vão morrendo lentamente".

Também é possível ver outra figura de linguagem na frase, a personificação. Essa figura de linguagem dá a objetos inanimados características humanas. Ela pode ser vista na frase quando o poeta fala "mãos que dizem adeus". Isso porque as mãos não tem a capacidade de dizer adeus, essa capacidade é uma característica humana.
