If a marathon runner averages 9.51 mi/hr, how long does it take him to run a 26.220-mile marathon. Express your answers in hours

, minutes, and seconds.

ASHA 777 [7]3 years ago

Explanation:

Speed of the marathon runner, v = 9.51 mi/hr

Distance covered by the runner, d = 26.220 mile

Let t is the time taken by the marathon runner. We know that the speed of the runner is given by total distance divided by total time taken. Mathematically, it is given by :

v=\dfrac{d}{t}

t=\dfrac{d}{v}

t=\dfrac{26.220\ mi}{9.51\ mi/hr}

t = 2.75 hours

Since, 1 hour = 60 minutes

t = 165 minutes

Since, 1 minute = 60 seconds

t = 9900 seconds

Hence, this is the required solution.

Cancer research, solar panel production and agricultural innovation will all be key areas for nano tech, and so will clothing design, cosmetics manufacturing and many others are some of the new developments.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Nanotechnology is also being applied to or developed for application to a variety of industrial and purification processes. Purification and environmental cleanup applications include the desalination of water, water filtration, wastewater treatment, groundwater treatment, and other nano remediation.

Nanotechnology offers the potential for new and faster kinds of computers, more efficient power sources and life-saving medical treatments. Potential disadvantages include economic disruption and possible threats to security, privacy, health and the environment.

A tennis player hits a ball 2.0 m above the ground. The ball leaves his racquet with a speed of 20 m/s at an angle 5.0 ∘ above t
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

initial height, yo = 2 m

initial velocity, u = 20 m/s

angle of projection,θ = 5 degree

distance of net = 7 m

height of net = 1 m

Let it covers a vertical distance y in time t .

Use Second equation of motion for vertical motion

y=y_{0}+uSin\theta t-1/2 gt^{2}

y=2+20Sin5 t-4.9t^{2}

As it hits the ground in time t, so put y = 0

0=2+1.74 t-4.9t^{2}

4.9t^{2}-1.74t-2=0

t= \frac{1.74\pm\sqrt{1.74^{2}+4\times\2\times4.9}}{9.8}

Taking positive sign, t = 0.84 s

The ball travels a horizontal distance x in time t

X = 20 Cos5 x t

X =  16.76 m

As this distance is more than the distance of net, so it clears the net.

Let t' be the time taken to travel a horizontal distance equal to the distance of net

7 = 20 cos5 x t'

t' = 0.35 s

Let the vertical distance traveled by the ball in time t' is y'.

So,

y'=y_{0}+uSin\theta t'-1/2 gt'^{2}

y'=2+20Sin5 t-4.9\times0.35^{2}

y' = 2.008 m

So, it clears the net which is 1 m high.

It clears the net by a vertical distance of 2.008 - 1 = 1.008 m and horizontal distance 16.76 - 7 = 9.76 m

Atmosphere

Atmospheric gas from prehistoric eras is found trapped in glaciers in the form of bubbles. These gas bubbles are the basis of studying ice cores as they provide us with accurate estimates of the conditions of past climates. The bubbles allow us to determine the composition of atmospheric air, such as the carbon dioxide and methane concentrations, as well as allow us to determine air temperatures in the past.

The perceived loudness of a sound is measured in
diamong [38]
<h2>Answer: decibels </h2>

The decibel dB is the relation between two values: the pressure produced by a sound wave and a pressure taken as a reference. Resulting in a dimensionless value.

It should be noted that itself<u> is not a unit of measure</u>, since in reality the unit is bel B (which <u>is not part of the International System of Units</u>) in honor of Alexander Graham Bell.

However, given the amplitude of the measured elements in practice, its submultiple, the decibel, is used. That is, this quotient is a logarithmic expression, where 1dB=0.1B
