Answer:he trains take 57.4 s to pass each other.

Two trains A and B move towards each other. Let A move along the positive x axis and B along the negative x axis.

therefore,

The relative velocity of the train A with respect to B is given by,

If the train B is assumed to be at rest, the train A would appear to move towards it with a speed of 170 km/h.

The trains are a distance d = 2.71 km apart.

Since speed is the distance traveled per unit time, the time taken by the trains to cross each other is given by,

Substitute 2.71 km for d and 170 km/h for

Express the time in seconds.

Thus, the trains cross each other in 57.4 s.

The speed that a tsunami can travel is modeled by the equation , where s is the speed in kilometers per hour and d is the averag
CaHeK987 [17]

The speed of tsunami is a.0.32 km. 

Steps involved  :

The equation s = 356d models the maximum speed that a tsunami can move at. It reads as follows: s = 200 km/h d =?

Let's now change s to s in the equation to determine d: s = 356√d 200 = 356√d √d = 200 ÷ 356 √d = 0.562 Let's square the equation now by squaring both sides: (√d)² = (0.562) ² d = (0.562)² = 0.316 ≈ 0.32

As a result, 0.32 km is roughly the depth (d) of water for a tsunami moving at 200 km/h.

Calculate the total displacement of a mouse walking along a ruler, if it begins at the x=5cm, and then does the following: It wa
Lana71 [14]
<span>To begin, the mouse walks from 5 to 12 cm, for a displacement of 7 cm. Next, it walks 8 cm in the opposite direction, for a total displacement of (7 + [-8]) or (-1) cm. This leaves the mouse on 4 cm, and then it walks from there to the 7cm location, for a displacement of 7-4 or +3 cm. Adding 3cm to -1cm gives a final displacement of +2cm.</span>

A 2-kg box sits on a horizontal table. the force of friction between the box and the table is 10 n. the box is pushed to the rig
dangina [55]
By Newton's 2nd law of motion, F = ma, where F is force, m is mass, and a is acceleration.

Rearranging this equation to find acceleration would give us:
a = F/m

The horizontal force to the right is 10N, because the box is pushed to the right with a force of 20N, and the friction force of 10N opposes that, so:
20N - 10N = 10N

The mass is 2kg.

Putting these values into the equation gives us:
a = F/m
= 10/2
= 5ms^-2

The acceleration of the box is 5ms^-2
