Two cyclists leave towns 120 km apart at the same time and travel toward each other. One cyclist travels 10 km/h slower than the

other. If they meet in 2 hours, what is the rate of each cyclist?

Answer:

Exp35 km/h , 25 km/hlanation:

Let the speed of one cyclist is v and the speed of another cyclist is v - 10.

Distance traveled by the first cyclist in 2 hours = v x 2

Distance traveled by the second cyclist in 2 hours = (v - 10) x 2

They meet after 2 hours.

So the distance traveled by the first and the second cyclist is equal to 120 km.

2 v + 2 (v -10) = 120

2v + 2v - 20 = 120

4v = 140

v = 35 km/h

The speed of first cyclist is 35 km/h and the speed of another cyclist is 35 - 10 = 25 km/h.

Answer:

35 km/hr and 25 km/hr

Explanation:

Total distance is D.

Let speed of one cyclist be X km/hr.

Speed of second cyclist = ( X-10) km/hr

Now,

                        Distance = Speed * Time

Total distance D = Distance covered by slower cyclist + Distance covered by                                     faster cyclist.

                       D =  2* X + 2(X-10)

                       120 =  2X + 2X -20

                       120 = 4X - 20

                       140 = 4X

                         X = 35 km/hr

Therefore, Speed of faster cyclist = 35 km/hr

                  Speed of slower cyclist = 35-10

                                                          = 25km/hr

(a) The Eskimo pushes the same 50.0-kg sled over level ground with a force of 1.75 102 N exerted horizontally, moving it a dista
vivado [14]

Answer: 0.306

Explanation:

from the question we are given the following

mass of sled (m) = 50 kg

force (f) = 1.75 x 10^2 N = 175 N

distance (s) = 6 m

net work done on the sled = 1.50 x 10 ^2 N = 150 N

acceleration due to gravity (g)  = 9.8 m/s^2

coefficient of friction = μ

lets first calculate the frictional force (ff)

ff =  μ x m x g = μ  x 50 x 9.8 = 490 μ

work done on the slide by the applied force (W1)=  f x s = 175 x 6 = 1050 j

work done on the slide by frictional force (W2) = ff x s = 490 μ x 6 = 2940μ j

now the net work done is the work done by the frictional force subtracted from the work done by the applied force

net work done = W1 - W2

150 = 1050 -  2940μ

2940μ = 1050 - 150

μ = 900 / 2940

μ = 0.306

An example of a land feature formed by river erosion is?
KatRina [158]
<span>There are various examples of land features formed by river erosion. One of them is Delta. A delta is formed when sediments are deposited in a place where a river flow into an ocean or lake and build up a land form. Thus, a river delta is a land form that occurs as a result of deposition of sediments carried by a river as the flow leaves its mouth and enter a slow moving or stagnant water.</span>

At this output power, how long would it take an 89 kg cyclist (including the mass of his bike) to climb the famed 1100-m-high al
Artemon [7]
<span>In general the route that follows the 1100-m-high alpe d'huez mountain stage takes anywhere from four to six hours in athletes from around the world. A beginner would probably take 8 hours or so. World records were recently broken with a time just under three hours. The most friction for cyclist is the competition itself.</span>

Where is the most and the least KENETIC ENERGY
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

Where is kinetic energy the least?, and most?

Explanation:

Least : When the Moon is farthest from Earth in its nearly elliptical orbit, its speed is least. Its kinetic energy has become least, and its potential energy is greatest.

Further : Kinetic energy, form of energy that an object or a particle has by reason of its motion. If work, which transfers energy, is done on an object by applying a net force, the object speeds up and thereby gains kinetic energy.

May be different for you, but i really hope I helped out.
