Agent Bond is standing on a bridge, 13.5 m above the road below, and his pursuers are getting too close for comfort. He spots a

flatbed truck approaching at 25 m/s, which he measures by knowing that the telephone poles the truck is passing are 25 m apart in this region. The roof of the truck is 3.5 m above the road, and Bond quickly calculates how many poles away the truck should be when he drops down from the bridge onto the truck, making his getaway.
How many poles is it?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Eek!  Let's give this a go. Things we know:

acceleration of Bond in free fall is -9.8 m/s/s

velocity of the truck is 25 m/s

displacement Bond will travel when he jumps is -10 m

What we are looking for is the time it will take him to hit the top of the truck, knowing that the truck can travel from one pole to the next in 1 second.

Our displacement equation is

Δx = v₀t + 1/2at²

Filling in we have

-10=25t+\frac{1}{2}(-9.8)t^2

Simplifying we get

-10=25t-4.9t^2

This is a quadratic that needs to be solved however you personally solve quadratics.  When you do that, you find that the times it will take Bond to drop that displacement is either -.37 seconds or 5.47 seconds.  Many things in physics can be negative, like velocity and acceleration, but time NEVER will be.  So it takes Bond 5.5 seconds to drop to the roof of the moving truck.  That means that he needs to jump when the truck is between the 5th and the 6th poles away from him.

Good luck with this!

Cheers!

I got 8/10 or 80% because if you add up all sandwichs together, you get 50, then you add up ham and tuna sandwichs and get 40 so 40/50 would be 80/100 to make it a percent or fraction.. hopefully this makes sense and i helped:) i wish i could just send the work to you so it could make more sense lol

The cost for a pack of 18 pencils is $3.24. Find the unit price in dollars per pencil. If necessary, round your answer to the ne
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

$0.18 per pencil.

Step-by-step explanation:

"Dollars per unit" means that you take the dollar amount and divide it by the amount of pencils, so you get 3.24/18, or .18.

PLEASE HELP!!!

Answer:

a. 8.75 M NaOH

b. 0.425 M CuCl₂ or 0.43 M CuCl₂

c. 0.067 M CaCO₃ or 0.07 M CaCO₃

Step-by-step explanation:

Molality is computed using the formula:

M = \dfrac{Moles\:of\:solute}{Liters\:of\:solution}

So first thing you need to do is determine how many moles of solute there are and divide it by the solution in liters.

Converting mass to moles, you need to get the mass of each solute per mole. You can use the periodic table to get the atomic mass (which is the grams per mole of each atom) of each of the elements involved. Then add them up and you will have how many grams per mole of each compound.

1. 35.0g of NaOH in 100ml H₂O

Element         number of atoms            atomic mass           TOTAL

Na                              1                   x             22.99g/mol  =    22.99g/mol

O                                1                   x             16.00g/mol   =    16.00g/mol

H                                1                   x                1.01g/mol   =<u>       1.01g/mol</u>

                                                                                                 40.00g/mol

This means that the molecular mass of NaOH is 40.00 g/mol

Then we use this to convert 35.0g of NaOH to moles:

35.0g \:of\:NaOH \times \dfrac{1\:mole\:of\:NaOH}{40.00g\:of\:NaOH} = \dfrac{35.0\:moles\:of\:NaOH}{40.00}=0.875\:moles\:of\:NaOH

Now that you have the number of moles we divide it by the solution in liters. Before we can do that you have to conver 100ml to L.

100ml\times\dfrac{1L}{1000ml} = 0.1 L

Then we divide it:

\dfrac{0.875\:moles\:of\:NaOH}{0.1L of solution} = 8.75M\: NaOH

2. 20.0g CuCl₂ in 350ml H₂O

Element         number of atoms            atomic mass           TOTAL

Cu                              1                   x             63.55g/mol  =    63.55g/mol

Cl                               2                   x             34.45g/mol   =   <u>70.90g/mol</u>

                                                                                                134.45g/mol

20.g\:of\:CuCl_2\times\dfrac{1\:mole\:of\:CuCl_2}{134.45\:g\:of\:CuCl_2}=0.1488\:moles\:of\:CuCl_2

350ml = 0.350L

\dfrac{0.1488\:moles\:of\:CuCl_2}{0.350L\:of\:solution}=0.425M\:CuCl_2

3. 3.35g CaCO₃ in 500ml

Element         number of atoms            atomic mass           TOTAL

Ca                              1                   x             40.08g/mol  =    40.08g/mol

C                                1                   x              12.01g/mol   =    12.01g/mol

O                                3                  x              16.00g/mol   =<u>   48.00g/mol</u>

                                                                                                100.09g/mol

3.35g\:of\:CaCO_3\times\dfrac{1\:mole\:of\:CaCO_3}{100.09\:g\:of\:CaCO_3}=0.0335\:moles\:of\:CaCO_3

500ml = 0.5L

\dfrac{0.0335\:moles\:of\:CaCO_3}{0.5L}=0.067M\:CaCo_3

If you are 600 m from a batter when you see him hit a ball, how long will you wait to hear the sound of the bat hitting the ball
Molodets [167]

Answer:

<em>The speed of sound at 20°C is 343.42 m/s.</em>

<em>You have to wait 1.75 seconds to hear the sound of the bat hitting the ball</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Speed of Sound</u>

The speed of sound is not constant with temperature. Generally speaking, the greater the temperature, the greater the speed of sound.

The approximate speed of sound in dry air at temperatures T near 0°C is calculated from:

\displaystyle v_{\mathrm {s} }=(331.3+0.606\cdot T )~~~\mathrm {m/s}

The air is at T=20°C, thus the speed of sound is:

\displaystyle v_{\mathrm {s} }=(331.3+0.606\cdot 20 )~~~\mathrm {m/s}

v_{\mathrm {s} }=343.42\ m/s

The speed of sound at 20°C is 343.42 m/s.

To calculate the time to hear the sound after the batter hits the ball, we use the formula of constant speed motion:

\displaystyle v=\frac{d}{t}

Where d is the distance and t is the time. Solving for t:

\displaystyle t=\frac{d}{v}

Substituting the values v=343.42 m/s and d=600 m:

\displaystyle t=\frac{600}{343.42}

t = 1.75 s

You have to wait 1.75 seconds to hear the sound of the bat hitting the ball
