A robot moving forward at a constant speed takes 2.5 hours to travel 1 kilometer. Moving forward at this same constant speed, it

takes the robot 90 seconds to travel the length of a particular hallway. How many meters long is the hallway?

Answer:

The length of the hallway is 10 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Time taken to cover 1 km = 2.5 hours

Distance covered in 2.5 hours = 1 km

Therefore, speed of robot = \frac{\textrm{Distance}}{\textrm{TIme}}=\frac{1}{2.5}=0.4\ km/h

Now, speed is constant.

Now, time taken to cover the length of hallway = 90 s

Speed of the robot = 0.4 km/h

Converting 0.4 km/h to m/s, we multiply by the factor \frac{5}{18}. This gives,

0.4\times \frac{5}{18}=\frac{1}{9}\ m/s

Now, distance of the hallway is equal to the product of speed and time. So,

Distance of hallway = Speed \times Time

Distance of hallway = \frac{1}{9}\times 90=\frac{90}{9}=10\ m

Therefore, the length of the hallway is 10 m.

If vector u has its initial point at (-7, 3) and its terminal point at (5, -6), u =
attashe74 [19]

First of all, let <span>θθ</span> be some angle in <span><span>(0,π)</span><span>(0,π)</span></span>. Then

<span><span><span>θθ</span> is acute <span>⟺⟺</span> <span><span>θ<<span>π2</span></span><span>θ<<span>π2</span></span></span> <span>⟺⟺</span> <span><span>cosθ>0</span><span>cos⁡θ>0</span></span>.</span><span><span>θθ</span> is right <span>⟺⟺</span> <span><span>θ=<span>π2</span></span><span>θ=<span>π2</span></span></span> <span>⟺⟺</span> <span><span>cosθ=0</span><span>cos⁡θ=0</span></span>.</span><span><span>θθ</span> is obtuse <span>⟺⟺</span> <span><span>θ><span>π2</span></span><span>θ><span>π2</span></span></span> <span>⟺⟺</span> <span><span>cosθ<0</span><span>cos⁡θ<0</span></span>.</span></span>

Now, to see if (say) angle <span>AA</span> of the triangle <span><span>ABC</span><span>ABC</span></span> is acute/right/obtuse, we need to check whether <span><span>cos∠BAC</span><span>cos⁡∠BAC</span></span> is positive/zero/negative. But what is <span><span>cos∠BAC</span><span>cos⁡∠BAC</span></span>? It is the angle made by the vectors <span><span><span>AB</span><span>−→−</span></span><span><span>AB</span>→</span></span> and <span><span><span>AC</span><span>−→−</span></span><span><span>AC</span>→</span></span>. (When you are computing the angle at a particular vertex <span>vv</span>, you should make sure that both the vectors corresponding to the two adjacent sides have that vertex <span>vv</span> as the initial point.) We will first compute these two vectors:

<span><span><span><span>AB</span><span>−→−</span></span>=(0,0,0)−(1,2,0)=(−1,−2,0)</span><span><span><span>AB</span>→</span>=(0,0,0)−(1,2,0)=(−1,−2,0)</span></span><span><span><span><span>AC</span><span>−→−</span></span>=(−2,1,0)−(1,2,0)=(−3,−1,0)</span><span><span><span>AC</span>→</span>=(−2,1,0)−(1,2,0)=(−3,−1,0)</span></span>Therefore, the angle between these vectors is given by:<span><span><span>cos∠BAC=<span><span><span><span>AB</span><span>−→−</span></span>⋅<span><span>AC</span><span>−→−</span></span></span><span>|<span><span>AB</span><span>−→−</span></span>||<span><span>AC</span><span>−→−</span></span>|</span></span>=…</span>(1)</span><span>(1)<span>cos⁡∠BAC=<span><span><span><span>AB</span>→</span>⋅<span><span>AC</span>→</span></span><span>|<span><span>AB</span>→</span>||<span><span>AC</span>→</span>|</span></span>=…</span></span></span>Can you take it from here? From the sign of this value, you should be able to decide if angle <span>AA</span> is acute/right/obtuse.

Now, do the same procedure for the remaining two angles <span>BB</span> and <span>CC</span> as well. That should help you solve the problem.

A shortcut. Since you are not interested in the actual values of the angles, but you need only whether they are acute, obtuse or right, it is enough to compute only the sign of the numerator (the dot product between the vectors) in formula (1). The denominator is always positive.

The expanded form for 300684 can be written with only 4 add ends. Explain how this is possible for a number with 6 digits
irina [24]

Answer:

This can be because our number, 300,684, has only four digits different than zero.

Then we can write this number as:

300,684 = 300,000 + 600 + 80 + 4.

So we add only 4 terms.

So when we write a number in this form, we will have the same numbers of terms in the addition that the number of digits different than zero in our original number.
