You must run at least 53.3333333 meters a minute.

To find the rate that you need to run, you should do distance/time

So, 800/15=53.33. You have to run at 53.33meters per minute to make it on time

If a machine will do 50 J of work in 35 seconds how much power did it produce?

grandymaker [24]

Power is the amount of work done over a period of time. If you will put that into an equation, the formula of power will be:

P = W/t
Where:
P = power
W=work
t = time

Your problem already provides you with work and time so all you need to do is divide:

P = W/t
P = 50J/30s
P = 1.67 W

A piece of wire 29 m long is cut into two pieces. One piece is bent into a square and the other is bent into an equilateral tria

skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Total length of the wire is 29 m.

Let the length of one piece is d and of another piece is 29 - d.

Let d is used to make a square.

And 29 - d is used to make an equilateral triangle.

(a)

Area of square = d²

Area of equilateral triangle = √3(29 - d)²/4

Total area,

$A = d^{2}+\frac{\sqrt3}{4}\left ( 29-d \right )^{2}$

Differentiate both sides with respect to d.

$\frac{dA}{dt}=2d- \frac{\sqrt3}{4}\times 2(29-d)$

For maxima and minima, dA/dt = 0

d = 8.76 m

Differentiate again we get the

$\frac{d^{2}A}{dt^{2}}= + ve$

(a) So, the area is maximum when the side of square is 29 m

(b) so, the area is minimum when the side of square is 8.76 m

calculate the resistance of a wire 150cm long and diameter 2.0mm constructed from an alloy of resistivity 44*10-⁸Ωm

Ghella [55]

Answer:

R = 0.21 Ω

Explanation:

the formula:

R = r x l/A

R = (44 x 10-⁸ Ωm) x 1.5 / (π x (1 x 10-³ m)²)

R = 6.6 x 10-⁷ / 3.14 x 10-⁶

R = 0.21 Ω

A mixture of nitrogen and xenon gases, at a total pressure of 836 mm Hg, contains 2.80 grams of nitrogen and 24.9 grams of xenon

larisa86 [58]

Answer: Partial pressure of nitrogen and xenon are 288mmHg and 548 mmHg respectively.

Explanation:

The partial pressure of a gas is given by Raoult's law, which is:

$p_A=p_T\times \chi_A$
