Answer:

4 km/hr

Explanation:

suppose 's' is Diane's speed with no current.

't' represents time in hrs.

Using the formula:

Distance = speed 's' x time 't'

-> when she swims against the current, equation will be,

5= (s-2)t

t= 5/(s-2)

->when she was swimming with the current, equation is,

15= (s+2) t

t= 15/(s+2)

equating eq(1) and (2)

5/(s-2) = 15/(s+2)

5s + 10 = 15s - 30

40= 10s

s= 40/10

s=4

Therefore, if there were no current, her speed is 4km/hr

State coulomb's law mathematically
Vsevolod [243]

Coulomb's law is express as:

\begin{gathered} F=k\frac{q_1q_2}{r^2} \\ \text{ where} \\ k\text{ is Coulomb's constant} \\ q_1\text{ and }q_2\text{ are the charges} \\ r\text{ is the distance between charges} \end{gathered}

To demonstrate the tremendous acceleration of a top fuel drag racer, you attempt to run your car into the back of a dragster tha
Daniel [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

If the dragster  attains the speed equal to that of the car which is moving with constant velocity of v₀ , before the two close in contact with each othe , there will not be collision .

So the dragster starting from rest , must attain the velocity v₀ in the maximum time given that is tmax .

v = u + a t

v₀ = 0 + a tmax

tmax = v₀ / a

The value of tmax is v₀ / a .

3. Which one of these has the most inertia?
Arte-miy333 [17]

b. A Boeing 747 airplane

Explanation:

The Boeing 747 airplane will have the most inertia of all. Inertia is the tendency of an object to remain at rest or uniform motion.

  • Newton's first law of motion is also regarded as the law of inertia.
  • It states that "an object will remain at rest or uniform motion motion unless acted upon by an external force".
  • A body that has a large mass will be more resistant to any external force that acts on it.
  • The Boeing 747 has the most mass of all and will have the most inertia.

When two or more capacitors are connected in series across a potential difference:
34kurt

Answer:

A) and B) are correct.

Explanation:

Let's take a look at the attached picture. Now

The total voltage across both capacitors is the same as the sum of the voltage from each device, that statement is true for any electrical device connected in series. So a) is TRUE

The equivalent capacitance is going to be: \frac{1}{C_{total}}=\frac{1}{C_1} +\frac{1}{C_2}

And that value can be mathematically proven that is always less than any of the values of each capacitor. So b is TRUE

And through both capacitors flow the same current, but the amount of charge depends on the value of the capacitors, so only could be the same if the capacitors are the same value. Otherwise, don't. C) not always, so FALSE
