Answer:

v = 1.25 m/s

Explanation:

We have,

Distance covered by a person is 10 meters

Time taken by him to cover that distance is 8 seconds.

If we want to find the speed of a person, we must know distance covered by it and taken. In this case, we know both distance and time. His speed is given by :

$v=\dfrac{d}{t}\\\\v=\dfrac{10\ m}{8\ s}\\\\v=1.25\ m/s$

So, the speed of the person is 1.25 m/s.

Aaron's normal response time to apply the car brakes is 0.7 seconds. Aaron's response time doubles when he is tired. How far wil

Likurg_2 [28]

Aaron's car is moving at speed of 30 m/s

His reaction time is given as 0.7 s

but when he is tired the reaction time is doubled

Now we need to find the distance covered by his car when he is tired during the time when he react to apply brakes

So here since during this time speed is given as constant so we can say that distance covered can be product of speed and time

So here we can use

$d = v*t$

$d = 30 * 1.4$

$d = 42 m$

So the car will move to 42 m during the time when he apply brakes

suppose you want to determine the surface area of this sugar cube. it has edges that are each 2 cm long. if you cut the cube in

ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

Half: 6 cm^2 Whole: 12 cm^2

Explanation:

First, we know that the edges of the cube are 2 cm long. So there are 6 faces on a cube. We do 2x6=12 cm^2 as our total surface area. Then it asks for each half. So you would divide it by 2 and get 6 cm^2 as your half.

What current flow (I) is associated with an input voltage of 5.0V and resistors R1 = 1.5 kiloohms and R2 = 0.5 kiloohms? Calcula

Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

current in series is 2.50 mA

current in parallel is 13.51 mA

Explanation:

given data

voltage = 5 V

resistors R1 = 1.5 kilo ohms

resistors R2 = 0.5 kilo ohms

to given data

current flow

solution

current flow in series is express as here

current = voltage / resistor .................1

put here all value in equation 1

current = 5 / (1.5 + 0.5)

current = 5 / 2.0

so current = 2.50 mA

and

current flow in parallel is express as

current = voltage / resistor ....................2

put here all value in equation 2

current = 5 / (1/ (1/1.5 + 1/0.5))

current = 5 / 0.37

so current = 13.31 mA
