Are you ready for a brain twister? murphy can row at 5 kmph in still water. if the velocity of current is 1 kmph and it takes hi

Answer: 2.4km

In this case, Murphy is <span>rowing to a place and come back so he was going 2x of the place distance. That means when he goes to the place the current velocity is helping him(5+1 kmph) and when he comes back the current velocity is slowing him(5-1kmph).
To calculate the place distance, the calculation would be:
X/6kmph + X/4kmph= 1 hour
</span>X/6kmph + 1.5X/6kmph= 1 hour
<span>2.5X/6kmph= 1hour
2.5X= 1 hour x 6km/ hour
X= 6km/2.5
X= 2.4km
</span>

What is the wavelength of a 6.00*10^2 Hz sound wave in air at 20C
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

Solution

λ=v/n

Here, v=344 m s−1

n=22 MHz =22×106 Hz

λ=344/22×106=15.64×10−6m=15.64μm.

A plane flies along a straight line path after taking off, and it ends up 220 km farther east and 100.0 km farther north, relati
love history [14]

Answer:

North east

Explanation:

The distance travelled by a plane from one point to another is the shortest distance between the two points. This distance travelled is usually a straight line path from point 1 to point 2.

Since the plane ends up 220 km farther east and 100.0 km farther north, the direction of flight for the plane is in the North-East direction.

Let x represent the distance travelled by the plane. Hence:

x² = 100² + 220²

x² = 58400

x = 241.66 km

Questions E6 a&amp; b and E7 a&amp;b?
erica [24]

Explanation:

6a) Work = force × distance

W = Fd

W = (60 N) (10 m)

W = 600 J

6b) Change in energy = work

ΔKE = 600 J

7a) Kinetic energy is half the mass times the square of the velocity.

KE = ½ mv²

KE = ½ (0.4 kg) (25 m/s)²

KE = 125 J

7b) Work = change in energy.  When the ball is stopped, it has zero kinetic energy.

W = ΔKE

W = 0 J − 125 J

W = -125 J
