The second scale is 3 times the first scale:

300, 000 / 100,000 = 3

Divide the distance by the same scale factor:

12 cm / 3 = 4 cm


Check:

The scale 1 / 100,000 means 1 cm = 1 km, so at 12 cm the cities are 12 km apart.

The second scale 1 / 300000 means 1 cm = 3 km, since the cities are 12 km apart, divide total distance by scale: 12/3 = 4 cm.

A stone is thrown upward from ground level. With what minimum speed should the stone be thrown so as to reach a height of 36 fee
rusak2 [61]
V^2 = u^2 - 2gh; where v is the final speed, u is the initial speed, g = 9.8 m/s = 0.54 ft/min is the accerelation due to gravity, h = height.
At the maximum height, the final speed is 0.
u^2 = 2gh = 2 x 0.54 x 36 = 38.58
u = sqrt(38.58) = 6.21 ft/min

Therefore, the stne should be thrown with 6.21 ft/min
