Donna drove to the mountains last weekend. There was heavy traffic on the way there, and the trip took 8 hours. When Donna drove

home, there was no traffic and the trip only took 4 hours. If her average rate was 45 miles per hour faster on the trip home, how far away does Donna live from the mountains?

Answer:

d=360 miles

Donna lives 360 miles from the mountains.

Explanation:

Conceptual analysis

We apply the formula to calculate uniform moving distance[

d=v*t   Formula (1)

d: distance in miles

t: time in hours

v: speed in miles/hour

Development of problem

The distance Donna traveled to the mountains is equal to the distance back home, equal to d,then,we pose the kinematic equations for d, applying formula 1:

travel data to the mountains: t₁= 8 hours ,  v=v₁

d= v₁*t₁=8*v₁ Equation (1)

data back home : t₂=4hours ,  v=v₂=v₁+45

d=v₂*t₂=(v₁+45)*4=4v₁+180 Equation (2)

Equation (1)=Equation (2)

8*v₁=4v₁+180

8*v₁-4v₁=180

4v₁=180

v₁=180÷4=45 miles/hour

we replace v₁=45 miles/hour in equation (1)

d=8hour*45miles/hour

d=360 miles

Two moles of an ideal monatomic gas are at a temperature of 345 K. Then, 2250 J of heat is added to the gas, and 870 J of work i
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer: The final temperature is 470K

Explanation: Using the relation;

Q= ΔU +W

Given, n = 2mol

Initial temperature T1= 345K

Heat =Q= 2250J

Workdone=W=-870J(work is done on gas)

T2 =Final temperature =?

ΔU =3/2nR(T2-T1)

ΔU=3/2 × 2 ×8.314 (T2 - 345)

ΔU=24.942(T2-345)

Therefore Q = 24.942(T2-345)+ (-870)

2250=24.942(T2-345)+ (-870)

125.09=(T2-345)

T2 =470K

Therfore the final temperature is 470K

Compare and contrast the health benefits and the amount of physical or mental energy needed between active leisure activities an
dolphi86 [110]
This is the answer "Some active leisure activities, such as yoga and running, require a great deal of physical energy, while other activities, like playing chess, require a substantial amount of mental energy. Passive leisure activities, such as watching TV or going to the movies, require little to no physical or mental energy. Because of the exertion of physical or mental energy, active leisure activities have more health benefits than passive leisure activities." hope it help you?:)
