Jim began a 153-mile bicycle trip to build up stamina for a triathlon competition. Unfortunately, his bicycle chain broke, so he

finished the trip walking. The whole trip took 5 hours. If Jim walks at a rate of 4 miles per hour and rides at 42 miles per hour, find the amount of time he spent on the bicycle.

consider the motion when Jim travels by bicycle

D = total distance to be traveled for the trip = 153 mile

v = speed of riding = 42 mph

t = time taken to complete the trip by bicycle = ?

using the equation

t = D/ v

inserting the values

t = 153/42

t = 3.64  h

while walking and riding :

T = total time taken to complete the trip by walking and riding = 5 hours

t ' = time of walking = T - t = 5 - 3.64 = 1.36 hours

v' = speed of walking = 4 mph

d' = distance traveled by walking = ?

distance traveled by walking is given as

d' = v' t'

d' = 4 x 1.36

d' = 5.44 miles

d = distance traveled by bicycle = D - d' = 153 - 5.44 = 147.56 miles

v = speed of riding = 42 mph

t = time spent on the bicycle = ?

time spent on the bicycle is given as

t = d/v

t = 147.56/42

t = 3.51 hours

Answer:

Explanation:La ecuación de Van der Waals es una ecuación de estado de un fluido compuesto de partículas con un tamaño no despreciable y con fuerzas intermoleculares, como las fuerzas de Van der Waals. La ecuación, cuyo origen se remonta a 1873, debe su nombre a Johannes van der Waals, quien recibió el premio Nobel en 1910 por su trabajo en la ecuación de estado para gases y líquidos, la cual está basada en una modificación de la ley de los gases ideales para que se aproxime de manera más precisa al comportamiento de los gases reales al tener en cuenta su tamaño no nulo y la atracción entre sus partículas.

Which of these is most likely to produce radioactive waves?
Ivan
<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>A. A nuclear power plant</u> produces radioactive wave.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

A plant in which a nuclear reactor is used as a source to produce heat is known as nuclear power plant. The heat formed by the reactor is used to form steam which can be used to drive turbines to produce electricity.

The coolant in reactor gets heated by the fission process taking place in the reactor. It is a cyclic process where the steam is condensed and reverted back. A nuclear power plant in active condition produce a small amount of radiation which can be sensed within a radius of 50 miles.

determine the force of gravitational attraction between a 78kg boy sitting 2 meters away from a 65kg girl.
bixtya [17]

Answer:

F=8.45\times 10^{-8}\ N

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a boy is 78 kg

Mass of a girl is 65 kg

We need to find the force of gravitational attraction between them if they are 2 m away.

The formula for the gravitational force is given by :

F=\dfrac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2}\\\\F=\dfrac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 78\times 65}{(2)^2}\\\\=8.45\times 10^{-8}\ N

So, the force between them is 8.45\times 10^{-8}\ N.
