Answer:

4miles/hour

Explanation:

the solution for this question requires that the quantities are converted to the appropriate units as required by the question.

Rate in miles per hour = distance in miles / time in hour

to convert 12 minutes to hours; recall that 60 minutes make 1 hour

12 minutes to hour = 12/60 = 0.2hr

to convert 4224 feet to miles; recall 5280 feet is equivalent to 1 mile

4224 feet to miles = 4224/5280 = 0.8 miles

∴ rate = 0.8 / 0.2

rate = 4 miles per hour

the constant rate in miles per hour = 4 miles/hour

Explanation
During the day when temperatures are higher, the snow melts and water enters the cracks in the rock. When the temperature drops below 0°C the water in the crack freezes and expands by about 9 per cent. This makes the crack larger.

An x-ray beam of wavelength 1.4×10−10m makes an angle of 20° with a set of planes in a crystal(the Bragg angle)causing first ord
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

Second order line appears at 43.33° Bragg angle.

Explanation:

When there is a scattering of x- rays from the crystal lattice and interference occurs, this is known as Bragg's law.

The Bragg's diffraction equation is :

n\lambda=2d\sin\theta      .....(1)

Here n is order of constructive interference, λ is wavelength of x-ray beam, d is the inter spacing distance of lattice and θ is the Bragg's angle or scattering angle.

Given :

Wavelength, λ = 1.4 x 10⁻¹⁰ m

Bragg's angle, θ = 20°

Order of constructive interference, n =1

Substitute these value in equation (1).

1\times1.4\times10^{-10} =2d\sin20

d = 2.04 x 10⁻¹⁰ m

For second order constructive interference, let the Bragg's angle be θ₁.

Substitute 2 for n, 2.04 x 10⁻¹⁰ m for d and 1.4 x 10⁻¹⁰ m for λ in equation (1).

2\times1.4\times10^{-10} =2\times2.04\times10^{-10} \sin\theta_{1}

\sin\theta_{1} =0.68

<em>θ₁ </em>= 43.33°

From the average distance of one of jupiter's moons to jupiter and its orbital period around jupiter, we can determine:
den301095 [7]

Answer: Jupiter's mass

Explanation:

From Kepler's third law:

T^2=\frac{4\pi^2}{GM}a^3

where T is the orbital period of a satellite, a is the average distance of the satellite from the Planet, M is the mass of the planet, G is the gravitational constant.

If the average distance of one of Jupiter's moons to Jupiter and its orbital period around Jupiter is given then mass of the Jupiter can be found:

\Rightarrow M_J=\frac{4\pi^2}{GT_m^2}a_m^3

a machine with a mechanical advantage of 2.5 requires an input force of 120 newtons. What output force is applied by this machin
creativ13 [48]
If your machine has a mechanical advantage of 2.5, then WHATEVER force you apply to the input, the force at the output will be 2.5 times as great.

If you apply 1 newton to the machine's input, the output force is

                 (2.5 x 1 newton)  =  2.5 newtons.

If you apply 120 newtons to the machine's input, the output force is

                 (2.5 x 120 newtons)  =  300 newtons.
