The fast runner will cover 8 km by time = t = d/v =8/14.8 = 0.54 hour
at that time ( 0.54 hr ) the slower runner would  cover d = v*t = 11*.0.54 = 5.94 km
So the slower would be at a distance = 8km - 5.94km =2.06 km from the finish line.

An athlete is working out in the weight room. He steadily holds 50 kilograms above his head for 10 seconds. Which statement is t
postnew [5]

Answer:

A. The athlete isn’t doing any work because he doesn’t move the weight.

Explanation:

We must remember the definition of work, which says that work is equal to the product of mass by the distance displaced. In this case, the athlete only does work when he lifts the weight from the ground to the point where he holds the weight suspended.

So when he's holding the weight, he doesn't do any work.

Where is the magnetic south pole compared to the geographical north pole?
Alex777 [14]

Currently, the magnetic south pole lies about ten degrees distant from the geographic north pole, and sits in the Arctic Ocean north of Alaska. The north end on a compass therefore currently points roughly towards Alaska and not exactly towards geographic north.

Which material is more closely related to the styrofoam? a. heat exchanger b. diffuser c. insulator d. electrical conductor
nirvana33 [79]

The material that is more closely related to the Styrofoam insulator.

Styrofoam is the term that is used for polystyrene foam in a trademark form. It is a petroleum-based plastic.

Keeping something warm includes the stopping of the transfer of heat from one object to another. This is how insulation works.

Styrofoam is an insulator, which means it'll help keep the heat from the environment out of your cooler. However, you'll still need cooling agents (like ice packs) to make the cooler cold in the first place.

Styrofoam is usually made mostly of air, which means it is a poor conductor of heat, but an excellent convector. It traps the air in small pockets, which blocks the flow of heat energy. This reduces both conduction and convection and makes Styrofoam a good insulator.

If we connect a third bulb in our series circuit, say one with 4
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

The current will decrease.

Explanation:

When another bulb is added, the resistance is going to increase. Keep in mind that the current is inversely proportional to the resistance (<em>Ohm's law: R= </em><em>V</em><em>/</em><em>I</em><em> </em><em>).</em> Therefore when the resistance increase, the current running in the circuit will decrease.

A 65-kg ice skater stands facing a wall with his arms bent and then pushes away from the wall by straightening his arms. At the
Marrrta [24]

Our values can be defined like this,

m = 65kg

v = 3.5m / s

d = 0.55m

The problem can be solved for part A, through the Work Theorem that says the following,

W = \Delta KE

Where

KE = Kinetic energy,

Given things like that and replacing we have that the work is given by

W = Fd

and kinetic energy by

\frac {1} {2} mv ^ 2

So,

Fd = \frac {1} {2} m ^ 2

Clearing F,

F = \frac {mv ^ 2} {2d}

Replacing the values

F = \frac {(65) (3.5)} {2 * 0.55}

F = 723.9N

B) The work done by the wall is zero since there was no displacement of the wall, that is d = 0.
