Answer:

the distance between the lawyer's home and her office is 124 miles

Explanation:

given information:

first lets assume that

x-axis (west = positive, east = negative)

y-axis (north = positive, south = negative)

thus,

distance of the house = (-88,18)

distance of the office = (13, -54)

thus, the distance between the lawyer's home and her office

R = √(x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²

= √(13 - (-88))² + (-54 -18)²

= 124 miles

Alexxandr [17]

The term "latency" describes the 27 seconds that pass after someone has finished texting or conversing on the phone before they can concentrate again on driving. The given statement is true.

<h3>What is latency?</h3>

A measure of delay is latency. The amount of time it takes for some data to travel across a network is known as latency.

The amount of time it takes for information to travel from its source to its destination and back is often quantified as a round trip delay.

The 27 seconds that pass after someone has done texting or talking on the phone before they can focus on driving again are referred to as "latency." The assertion is accurate.

Hence, the given statement is true.

To learn more about the latency refer to;

A 3-m-high, 7-m-wide rectangular gate is hinged at the top edge and is restrained by a fixed ridge. Determine the hydrostatic fo

Shalnov [3]

Answer:

The Hydrostatic force is $F = 137.2 kN$

The location of pressure center is $Z = 1.333 \ m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The height of the gate is $h = 3 \ m$

The weight of the gate is $w = 7 \ m$

The height of the water is $h_w = 2 \ m$

The density of water is $\rho_w = 1000 \ kg/m^3$

Note used $h_w$ for height of water and height of gate immersed by water since both have the same value

The area of the gate immersed in water is mathematically represented as

$A = h_w * w$

substituting values

$A = 2* 7$

$A = 14 \ m^2$

The hydrostatic force is mathematically represented as

$F = \rho_w * g * h_f * A$

Where

$h_f =h- h_w$

$h_f =3 -2$

$h_f = 1\ m$

So

$F = 1000 * 9.8 * 1 * 14$

$F = 137.2 kN$

The center of pressure is mathematically represented as

$Z = h_f + \frac{I_g}{h_f * A}$

Where $I_g$ is the moment of inertia of the gate which mathematically represented as

$I_g = \frac{w * h_w^2}{12}$

The $h_w$ is the height of gate immersed in water

$I_g = \frac{7 * 2^2 }{12}$

$I_g = 4.667\ kg m^2$

Thus

$Z = 1 + \frac{4.66}{1 * 14}$

$Z = 1.333 \ m$

A child is holding a wagon from rolling straight back down in a driveway that inclined at 20 degree horizontal. if the wagon wei

Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

F = 51.3°

Explanation:

The component of weight parallel to the inclined plane must be responsible for the rolling back motion of the car. Hence, the force required to be applied by the child must also be equal to that component of weight:

$F = Parallel\ Component\ of\ Weight\ of\ Wagon= WSin\theta\\$

where,

W = Weight of Wagon = 150 N

θ = Angle of Inclinition = 20°

Therefore,

$F = (150\ N)Sin\ 20^o$

<u>F = 51.3°</u>

sp2606 [1]

Force exerted by the bullet = mass * acceleration = 0.013 * 850 = 11.05 Newtons.

the rifle exerts same force in opposite direction so we have

11.05 = 3.5 * a
acceleration = 11.05 / 3.5 = 3.16 m /s^-2
