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.

What is the frequency of a microwave with a wavelength of 3.52 mm?
AlekseyPX

As per the question the wavelength of the microwave is given as 3.52 mm.

we are asked to calculate the frequency of the wave.

we know that microwave is a electromagnetic wave.

As per Clark Maxwell's electromagnetic theory ,every electromagnetic wave moves with a velocity equal to the velocity of light in vacuum and that is equal to 3×10^8 m/s.

From the equation of the wave,we know that velocity of wave is the product of frequency and wavelength.

Mathematically   wave velocity v=f*\lambda   where f is the frequency of the wave and \lambda is the wavelength.

As per the question \lambda=3.52 mm

                                               = 3.52*10^{-3} m

                       Here  v=c=3*10^{8} m/s

Hence frequency of the wave f=\frac{v}{\lambda}

                                                       =\frac{3*10^{8} }{3.52*10^{-3} } s^{-1}

                                                        =0.852272727272*10^{11} Hz

Here Hertz [Hz] is the unit of frequency.

If two persons do the same amount of work , they may have different power ? why ? ​
iris [78.8K]

Hey there mate :)

Even if two persons are given the same work load, the speed of the work done gets different by the energy of those persons.

No one is sure that he/she can complete the work within the time. He may or may not.

Also, the physical characteristics makes the work different. If one person has so much power to work all day, the other person may not have.

Therefore, <em>even if two persons do the same amount of work , they may have different power</em><em>.</em>

The following three hot samples have the same temperature. The same amount of heat is removed from each sample. Which one experi
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

Smallest drop: Water

Largest drop: Dirt

Explanation:

The heat needed to change the temperature of a sample is:

Q=cm\Delta T (1)

with Q the heat (added(+) or removed(-)), c specific heat, m the mass and \Delta T the change in temperature of the sample. So, if we solve (1) for

Sample A:

\Delta T=-\frac{Q}{cm} =\frac{Q}{4186*4.0}

\Delta T=-\frac{Q}{16744}

Sample B:

\Delta T=-\frac{Q}{cm} =\frac{Q}{2700*2.0}

\Delta T=-\frac{Q}{5400}

Sample C:

\Delta T=-\frac{Q}{cm} =\frac{Q}{1050*9.0}

\Delta T=-\frac{Q}{9450}

Note that the numbers 16744, 5400, 9450 are in the denominator of the expression -\frac{Q}{cm} that gives the drop on temperature. so, if Q is the same for the three samples the smallest denominator gives the largest drop and vice versa.

So, the smallest drop is Sample A and the largest is Sample C.

(Important: The minus sign of \Delta T implies the temperature is dropping)

Why is it not advisable to touch a canvas tent from inside when it is raining?​
Sauron [17]

Answer: When you touch wet canvas, surface tension will draw water to your finger. However, the drop left behind where you touched, like any irregular point on an overhead surface, will draw condensation from inside the tent if it is humid.
