Answer:

4 seconds - Not practical

Explanation:

Length of the truck = 50'

Initial distance behind the truck = 30'

Finish Pass = 50' ahead of truck ,

Pass at =  60mph -- about 3.375 seconds.

- 70mph your closing speed is 130mph.  

If you were less than a 1/4 mile away when you tried the pass you will be dead.

That would be a quick pass.  You will probably want a mile beyond the oncoming traffic.

The variation in the pressure of helium gas, measured from its equilibrium value, is given by ΔP = 2.9 × 10−5 cos (6.20x − 3 000
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

The wavelength of this wave is 1.01 meters.

Explanation:

The variation in the pressure of helium gas, measured from its equilibrium value, is given by :

\Delta P=2.9\times 10^{-5}\ cos(6.2x-3000t)..............(1)

The general equation is given by :

\Delat P=P_o\ cos(kx-\omega t)...........(2)

On comparing equation (1) and (2) :

k=6.2

Since, k=\dfrac{2\pi}{\lambda}

\dfrac{2\pi}{\lambda}=6.2

\lambda=1.01\ m

So, the wavelength of this wave is 1.01 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.

Why is no image formed when an object is at the focal point of a converging lens?
Temka [501]

Answer:

the refracted rays neither converge nor diverge. After refracting, the light rays are traveling parallel to each other and cannot produce an image.

ruslelena [56]
  • T1=40°C=313K
  • T_2=-10°C=263K

Applying Charles law

\\ \sf\Rrightarrow \dfrac{V_1}{T_1}=\dfrac{V_2}{T_2}

\\ \sf\Rrightarrow \dfrac{100}{313}=\dfrac{V_2}{263}

\\ \sf\Rrightarrow V_2=\dfrac{26300}{313}

\\ \sf\Rrightarrow V_2=84.02ml

Which feature of a heating curve indicates a change of state?
Andreas93 [3]
A "heating curve" is a graph that shows the temperature of the substance
against the amount of heat you put into it.

For most of the graph, as you'd expect, the temperature goes up as you
add heat, and it goes down as you take heat away.  BUT ... While the
substance is changing state, its temperature doesn't change even though
you're putting heat in or taking heat out.

So that part of the graph is a horizontal line.
