Suppose a horse is galloping at 19 mph toward a clown, and the clown is racing toward the horse on an ATV which can sustain a sp

eed of 15mph. They are 50 miles apart from one another and start at the exact same moment in time. How much time will it take for the horse and clown to collide?

Answer:

It will take 1.47 hours for the horse and clown to collide

Step-by-step explanation:

They are driving toward each other, in opposite directions.

So to find their speed of approximation, we add their speeds.

19 mph + 15 mph = 34 mph.

This means that each hour, they are 34 miles closer.

How long it takes for them to find each other if they are 50 miles apart?

1 hour - 34 miles

x hours - 50 miles

34x = 50

x = \frac{50}{34}

x = 1.47

It will take 1.47 hours for the horse and clown to collide

A) You can drop hammer and a feather, both will reach ground at the same time ( it was actually done in Apollo mission)

b) i. Yes, it is similar to weightlessness experienced by astronauts

ii. The phenomenon of "weightlessness" occurs when there is no force of support on your body. When your body is effectively in "free fall" in roller coaster, accelerating downward at the acceleration of gravity, then you are not being supported.
Just like astronauts in space feel no force of support that we on earth feel due to gravity.

AVERE<br> Given: P(0, -13) and 7(15,-7)<br> What is the slope of PT?
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope of a line segment, find the difference in y and divide by the difference in x (delta y / delta x)

Delta y: -7 - (-13) = 6

Delta x: 15 - 0 = 15

Slope = delta y / delta x

Slope = 6/15 = 2/5

If this helped, I really would appreciate if you tagged as brainliest!
