When she starts out, he is (40x2.5)= 100 miles ahead of her.

She gains (65-40)= 25 miles on him every hour.

It takes her (100/25)= 4 hours to catch up to him.

Answer:

d=2.4\ miles

Explanation:

Given:

  • average walking speed, v_w=3\ mph
  • average biking speed, v_b=12\ mph

<u>According to given condition:</u>

t_w=t_b+\frac{36}{60}

where:

t_w= time taken to reach the building by walking

t_b= time taken to reach the building by biking

We know that,

\rm time=\frac{distance}{speed}

so,

\frac{d}{v_w} =\frac{d}{v_b} +\frac{36}{60}

\frac{d}{3}=\frac{d}{12} +\frac{3}{5}

d=2.4\ miles

A rock is dropped from the edge of a cliff into a pool of water. Assume free-fall acceleration is 10 m/s per second, and air res
il63 [147K]

Answer:

20 m

Explanation:

From the equation of motion,

S = ut+1/2gt²................................. Equation 1

Where S = Height, u = initial velocity, t = time, g = acceleration due to gravity.

Note: Because the rocked is being dropped from a height, acceleration due to gravity is positive (g), and initial velocity (u) is negative

Given: t = 2.0 s, g = 10 m/s², u = 0 m/s (dropped from height)

Substituting into equation 1

S = 0(2) + 1/2(10)(2)²

S = 5(4)

S = 20 m

Hence the height of the the cliff above the pool is 20 m
