Answer:

1.5 m

Explanation:

Length. L = 12 m

Width, W = 16 m

Area, A = 12 x 16 = 192 m^2

Let the width of pavement be d.

The new length, L' = 12 + 2d

the new width, W' = 16 + 2d  

New Area, A' = L' x W' = (12 + 2d)(16 + 2d) = 192 + 56 d + 4d^2

Difference in area = A' - A

285 =  192 + 56 d + 4d^2 - 192

93 =  56 d + 4d^2

4d^2 + 56 d - 93 = 0

d = \frac{-56\pm \sqrt{56^{2}+4\times 4\times 93}}{8}

d=\frac{-56\pm 87.72}{8}\

d = 1.5 m

Thus, the width of the pavement is 1.5 m.

Two objects with masses of 2.75 kg and 4.45 kg are connected by a light string that passes over a light frictionless pulley to f
Llana [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

F = ma

4.45g - 2.75g = (4.45 + 2.75)a

a = 9.81(4.45 - 2.75) / (4.45 + 2.75) = 2.31625 ≈ 2.32 m/s²

a)

T = 2.75(9.81 + 2.32) = 33.3 N

or

T = 4.45(9.81 - 2.32) = 33.3 N

b) 2.32 m/s² upward for 2.75 kg mass

    2.32 m/s² downward for 4.45 kg mass

c) y = ½at² = ½(2.31625/3)1² = 1.158125 ≈ 1.16 m

If Scobie could drive a Jetson's flying car at a constant speed of 160.0 km/hr across oceans and space, approximately how long w
DochEvi [55]

Scobie will take 10 days to drive around Earth's equator.

To calculate the time that takes Scobie to drive around Earth's equator we need to find the distance, which is given by the equation of a circumference:

d = 2\pi r

<em>Where:</em>

r: is the Earth's radius = 6371 km

Then, the distance is:

d = 2\pi r = 2\pi*6371 km = 40030.2 km

Now, if we divide the above distance by the speed of the car we can find the time:

t = \frac{d}{v} = \frac{40030.2 km}{160.0 km/h} = 250.2 h*\frac{1 d}{24 h} = 10 d

Therefore, Scobie will take 10 days to drive around Earth's equator.
