Answer:

time spent = 0.2276

Explanation:

given data

distance = 135 mi

usual speed = 65 mph

today speed = 73 mph

solution

we get here time that is express as

time = \frac{distance}{speed}    ...................1

usual time = \frac{135}{65}  = 2.0769 h

today time = \frac{135}{73} = 1.8493 h

so we get here time spent as

time spent = 2.0769 h - 1.8493 h

time spent = 0.2276

A metal wire of resistance R is cut into eight equal pieces that are then placed together side by side to form a new cable with
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

R / 64

Explanation:

Let he length of the wire is L and its resistance is R.

The resistance of the wire is directly proportional to the length of the wire. As the wire is cut into 8 equal pieces so the resistance of small wire is R/8.

Now they are connected in parallel.

The equivalent resistance is given by

\frac{1}{R_{eq}}=  8\times \frac{8}{R}

R_{eq}=\frac{R}{64}

Thus, the equivalent resistance of the new cable is R / 64.

A ball is thrown upward from the edge of a cliff with an initial velocity of 6 m/s. (a) How fast is it moving 0.5 s later? In wh
almond37 [142]

Answer:

Explanation:

Kinematic equation

v = u + at

If UP is assumed to be the positive direction and we let gravity be 10 m/s² which will be in the downward direction so will be negative.

a) v = 6  + (-10)(0.5) = 1 m/s    the result is positive, so upward

b) v = 6  + (-10)(2) = -14 m/s    the result is negative, so downward

Four monitoring wells have been placed around a leaking underground storage tank. The wells are located at the corners of a 1-ha
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

direction : West to East

magnitude : 6.0 * 10^-3

Explanation:

<em>Given data :</em>

Four ( 4 ) monitoring wells

location of wells = corners of 1-ha square

Total piezometric head in each well ;

NE corner = 30.0 m ;

SE corner = 30.0 m;

SW corner = 30.6 m;

NW corner = 30.6 m.

<u>Calculate for  the magnitude and direction of the hydraulic gradient </u>

first step ; calculate for area

Area = ( 1 -ha  ) ( 10^4 m^2/ha )

        = 1 * 10^4 m^2

Distance between the wells = length of side

      = √( 1 * 10^4 ) m^2

      = 100 m

Direction of Hydraulic gradient is from west to east because the total piezometric head in the west = Total piezometric head in the east

Next determine The magnitude of the hydraulic gradient

= ( 30.6 - 30 ) / 100

= 6.0 * 10^-3
