Answer:
74.4 kilowatts or 99.8 horsepower
Explanation:
The explanation is in the attachment.
Jade and her roommate Jari commute to work each morning, traveling west on I-10. One morning Jade left for work at 6:45 A.M., bu
t Jari left 15 minutes later. Both drove at a constant speed. The following graphs show the distance (in miles) each of them has traveled on I-10 at time t (in minutes), where t = 0 is 7:00 A.M.
1 answer:
Answer:
Jari
Explanation:
The question requires to know who is traveling faster. This is done by comparing the gradients. The steeper the slope (high gradient), the faster the speed and vice versa.
From Jari's line, the starting point is (0, 0) and another point is (6, 7)
The gradient being change in y to change in x
Change in y=7-0=7
Change in x=6-0=6
Slope is 7/6
For Jade, first point is (0, 10) then another point is (6, 16)
Change in y=16-10=6
Change in x=6-0=6
Slope is 6/6=1
Clearly, 7/6 is greater than 6/6 or 1 hence Jari is faster than Jade

, where m is the mass of the object and 
is the gravitational acceleration at Earth's surface. The book in this problem has a mass of m=2.2 kg, therefore its weight is
2) On Mars, the value of the gravitational acceleration is different:
. The formula to calculate the weight of the object on Mars is still the same, but we have to use this value of g instead of the one on Earth: 
3) The weight of the textbook on Venus is F=19.6 N. We already know its mass (m=2.2 kg), therefore by re-arranging the usual equation F=mg, we can find the value of the gravitational acceleration g on Venus:
