Marys airplane trip took 5.8 hours for one-half of that time, the airplane flew at a constant speed of 640 miles per hour and fo

r the rest of the time, it flew at a speed of 580 mph. what distance did mary travel?

Distance is speed x time. Half of the trip is 5.8/2 = 2.9hrs.
640 x 2.9 = 1856mi
580 x 2.9 = 1682mi
1856mi+1682mi=3538mi.

You could also calculate her average speed. This is easy since it was divided in two equal time slices. Average Speed = (640+580)/2 = 610mi/hr
Now 610mi/hr x 5.8hrs = 3538mi

What physical property makes the red light different from blue light, or radio waves different from microwaves?

inna [77]

Only their wavelength does.

Blue light waves have only roughly half the wavelength of red light waves, and the so-called "microwaves" are the radio waves with the shortest wavelengths.

A 30.0-Î¼F capacitor is connected to a 49.0-Î© resistor and a generator whose rms output is 30.0 V at 60.0 Hz. (a) Find the rms

Natali5045456 [20]

Explanation:

Given that,

Capacitor = 30μC

Resistor = 49.0Ω

Voltage = 30.0 V

Frequency = 60.0 Hz

We need to calculate the impedance

Using formula of impedance

$Z=\sqrt{R^2+X_{c}^2}$ .....(I)

We need to calculate the value of $X_{c}$

Using formula of $X_{c}$

$X_{c}=\dfrac{1}{2\pi f c}$

$X_{c}=\dfrac{1}{2\times\pi\times60.0\times30\times10^{-6}}$

$X_{c}=88.42\ \Omega$

Put the value of $X_{c}$ into the formula of impedance

$Z=\sqrt{(49.0)^2+(88.42)^2}$

$Z=101.08\ \Omega$

(a). We need to calculate the rms current in the circuit

Using formula of rms current

$I_{rms}=\dfrac{V}{Z}$

$I_{rms}=\dfrac{30.0}{101.08}$

$I_{rms}=0.30\ A$

The rms current in the circuit is 0.30 A.

(b). We need to calculate the rms voltage drop across the resistor

Using formula of rms voltage

$V_{rms}=I_{rms}\times R$

Put the value into the formula

$V_{rms}=0.30\times49.0$

$V_{rms}=14.7\ V$

The rms voltage drop across the resistor is 14.7 V

(c). We need to calculate the rms voltage drop across the capacitor

Using formula of rms voltage

$V_{rms}=I_{rms}\times X_{C}$

$V_{rms}=0.30\times88.42$

$V_{rms}=26.53\ V$

The rms voltage drop across the capacitor is 26.53 V.

Hence, This is the required solution.

The SAF operates the M113 Ultra APC.

HACTEHA [7]

The volume of the object must be no larger than $11.15 m^3$ .

Explanation:

In order for an object to be able to float in water, its density must be equal or smaller than the water density.

The density of water is:

$\rho = 1000 kg/m^3$

This means that the density of the object must be no larger than this value.

We also know that the density of an object is given by

$\rho = \frac{m}{V}$

where

m is the mass of the object

V is its volume

For the object in this problem, the mass is

$m=1.115\cdot 10^4 kg$

Therefore, we can re-arrange the equation to find its volume:

$V=\frac{m}{\rho}=\frac{1.115\cdot 10^4}{1000}=11.15 m^3$

So, the volume of the object must be no larger than $11.15 m^3$ .

Two rigid tanks of equal size and shape are filled with different gases. The tank on the left contains oxygen, and the tank on t

fredd [130]

Answer:

The number of oxygen molecules in the left container greater than the number of hydrogen molecules in the right container.

Explanation:

Given:

Molar mass of oxygen, $M_O=32$

Molar mass of hydrogen, $M_H=2$

We know ideal gas law as:

$PV=nRT$

where:

P = pressure of the gas

V = volume of the gas

n= no. of moles of the gas molecules

R = universal gs constant

T = temperature of the gas

∵ $n=\frac{m}{M}$

where:

m = mass of gas in grams

M = molecular mass of the gas

∴Eq. (1) can be written as:

$PV=\frac{m}{M}.RT$

$P=\frac{m}{V}.\frac{RT}{M}$

as: $\frac{m}{V}=\rho\ (\rm density)$

So,

$P=\rho.\frac{RT}{M}$

Now, according to given we have T,P,R same for both the gases.

$P_O=P_H$

$\rho_O.\frac{RT}{M_O}=\rho_H.\frac{RT}{M_H}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{\rho_O}{32}=\frac{\rho_H}{2}$

$\rho_O=16\rho_H$

∴The molecules of oxygen are more densely packed than the molecules of hydrogen in the same volume at the same temperature and pressure. So, <em>the number of oxygen molecules in the left container greater than the number of hydrogen molecules in the right container.</em>
