The velocity or speed of the kayaker going north at a speed of 3 m/s and that of the current going east at a speed of 2 m/s create a resultant speed of √13 m/s. The new distance that has to be traveled by the kayaker in order to move 100 m north is calculated through the equation,
                            3 / √13 = 100 / x 
The value of x is 120 m. The total time it will take for the kayaker to reach the destination is,
                                 t = 120 / √13 = 33.33 s

const2013 [10]
For T = 89.5 degrees C:
E(t) = 1100(90 - 89.5) + 520(90 - 89.5)^2= 1100(0.5) + 520(0.5)^2= 550 + 130= 680 m
For T = 90 degrees C:
E(t) = 1100(90 - 90) + 520(90 - 90)^2= 0 + 0= 0 m (meaning that boiling point is 90 degrees C at ground level)

Answer:

1.5 batches take 12.375 hour

Step-by-step explanation:

The first batch takes 10.5 hours, meaning only .5 batches are left. You then take the time that each new full batch takes (4.25) and divide it by 2 as you only need half of one batch. Meaning 0.5 of a batch takes 2.125 hours. You then take the time of the two batches (10.5, and 2.125) and add them, leaving you with 12.625. Meaning 12.375 is the most viable answer.

Please answer the following
natulia [17]

Answer:

cot∅ = (-2√30)/7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the value of csc∅ = -13/7 and ∅ is in quad III.

We know y = r sin∅ and r > 0. So csc∅ = r/y = -13/7 = 13/(-7).

It means y = -7, r = 13.

We know x² + y² = r².

x² = r² - y²

x² = (13)² - (-7)² = 169 - 49 = 120.

x = √120 = 2√30.

we know cot∅ = x/y = (2√30)/(-7) = (-2√30)/7.

Hence, cot∅ = (-2√30)/7.
