A person travels by car from one city to another with different constant speeds between pairs of cities. She drives for 30.0 min

at 80.0 km/h, 45.0 min at 40 km/h and 12.0 min at 100 km/h, and spends 15.0 min eating lunch and buying gas. Determine the average sped for the trip. Determine the difference between the intial citties along the route.

Answer:

Average speed of the trip = 52.9 km/h

Distance between initial pairs of cities (start to end) = 70.0 km

Explanation:

Since distance = speed × time

If she drives 30.0 min at 80.0 km/h

Distance covered = (30/60) × 80 = 40.0 km

Again she drives 45.0 min at 40 km/h

Distance covered = (45/60) × 40 = 30.0 km

Again she drives 12.0 min at 100 km/h

Distance covered = (12/60) × 100 = 20.0 km

Total distance covered =  40.0 + 30.0 + 20.0

                                       = 90.0 km

Total time spent = 30.0 + 45.0 + 12.0 +15.0

                           = 102 min

Average speed for the trip = Total distance covered/total time spent

                                             = 90/(102/60)

                                             = 52.9 km/h

Distance between initial cities will be between the start of one city to the end of another

Between the first pairs = 40.0 + 30.0 = 70.0 km

Between the second pairs = 30.0 + 20.0 = 50.0 km

Are the statements of the Flat Earth Society an example of science or pseudoscience?
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

Pseudoscience

Explanation:

Pseudoscience is defined as set of ideas that present themselves as a science, but they do not fulfill the criteria to be called science. In the same way, in the middle of 20th century some people called earth is flat. They challenged the spherical shape of earth. But their hypothesis does not fulfill the criteria of science. Therefore, the statements of flat earth society are pseudoscience.

An Na ion has a charge of +1 and an O ion has a charge of –2. How many Na ions does one O ion need to balance charges
Aleonysh [2.5K]
Because Na⁺ ion lacks an electron and O²⁻ has two extra electrons extra, to balance the charge, we need 2 Na⁺ ions.
 
All ions, atoms and molecules want to get to the minimum energy state, and that state is when the ion, atom, or molecule is neutral, that's why all of them want to balance their charges.

Please help.. I'm desperate.
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

Newton's Second Law tells us that the more mass an object has, the more force is needed to move it. A larger rocket will need stronger forces (eg. more fuel) to make it accelerate. The space shuttles required seven pounds of fuel for every pound of payload they carry.
