A motorist, traveling east on an open highway, sets his cruise control at 90.0 km/h. How far will he travel in 0.75 hours?
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

<h2>The answer is 67.5 km</h2>

Explanation:

The distance covered by an object given it's velocity and time taken can be found by using the formula

distance = velocity × time

From the question we have

distance = 90 × 0.75

We have the final answer as

<h3>67.5 km</h3>

Hope this helps you

A tree loses water to the air by the process of transpiration at the rate of 110 g/h. This water is replaced by the upward flow
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

The answer is 1.87nm/s.

Explanation:

The 110g/hr  water loss must be replaced by 110g/hr of sap. 110g of sap corresponds to a volume of  

110g \div \dfrac{1040*10^3g}{1*10^6cm^3}  = 106cm^3

thus rate of sap replacement is

106cm^3/hr = 106*10^{-6}m^3/3600s  = 2.94*10^{-8}m^3/s

The volume of sap in the vessel of length x is

V = Ax,

where A is the cross sectional area of the vessel.

For 2000 such vessels, the volume is

V = 2000Ax

taking the derivative of both sides we get:

\dfrac{dV}{dt} = 2000A \dfrac{dx}{dt}

on the left-hand-side \dfrac{dx}{dt} is the velocity v of the sap, and on right-hand-side \dfrac{dV}{dt}  = 2.94*10^{-8}m^3/s; therefore,

2.94*10^{-8}m^3/s=2000Av

and since the cross-sectional area is

A = \pi (\dfrac{100*10^{-3}m}{2} )^2 = 7.85*10^{-3}m^2;

therefore,

2.94*10^{-8}m^3/s =2000(7.85*10^{-3}m^2)v

solving for v we get:

v = \dfrac{2.94*10^{-8}m^3/s}{2000(7.85*10^{-3}m^2)}

\boxed{v =1.875*10^{-9}m/s = 1.875nm/s}

which is the upward speed of the sap in each vessel.
