Answer:

distance between school and home is 21 miles

Explanation:

given data

in rush hour speed  s1 = 28 mph

less traffic speed s2 = 42 mph

time t = 1 hr 15 min = 1.25 hr

to find out

distance  d

solution

we consider here distance home to school is d and t1 time to reach at school

we get here distance equation when we go home to school that is

distance = 28 × t1    .......................1

and when we go school to home distance will be

distance = 42 × ( t - t1 )

distance = 42 × ( 1.25 - t1 )     ...................2

so from equation 1 and 2

28 × t1 = 42 × ( 1.25 - t1 )

t1 = 0.75

so

from equation 1

distance = 28 × t1

distance = 28 × 0.75

distance = 21 miles

If the archerfish spits its water 60. degrees from the horizontal aiming at an insect 2.0 m above the surface of the water, how
MA_775_DIABLO [31]
<span>Using the kinematic equations below, we can calculate the initial velocity required. Angle of projectile = 60 degrees Acceleration due to gravity (Ay) = -10 m/s^2 (negative because downward) Height of projectile (Dy) = 2m Vfy^2=Voy^2 +2*Ay*Dy Vfy = 0 m/s because the vertical velocity slows to zero at the height of its trajection. So... 0 = Voy^2 + 2(-10)(2) 0 = Voy^2 - 40 40 = Voy^2 Sqrt40 = Voy 6.32 m/s = Voy THIS IS NOT THE ANSWER. THIS IS JUST THE INITIAL VELOCITY IN THE Y DIRECTION. Using trigonometry, Tan 60 = Voy/Vox. Tan 60 = 6.32/Vox. Vox*Tan 60 = Vox Vox = 10.95 m/s. Now, using Vox = 10.95 and Voy = 6.32, we can use pythagorean theorem to find the total Vo. A^2 +B^2 = C^2 10.95^2 + 6.32^2 = C^2 Solving for C = 12.64 m/s This is the velocity required to hit the surface. You can also calculate a bunch of other stuff now using the other kinematic equations. V = 12.64 m/s</span>

icang [17]

During primary second stage underwater recovery, it is acceptable to switch to your alternate air source while you search for your primary which makes it a true statement.

<h3>What is Primary second stage underwater?</h3>

This involves the intermediate pressure air from the regulator hose being taken and reduced to ambient pressure.

Switching to your alternate air source  will ensure that the diver breathe safely which is why True was chosen.
