Answer:

(av + bu) miles

Explanation:

Average speed = distance/time

distance = time × average speed

distance from the starting point to the beginning of the opposite direction = a hours × v mph (mph is miles per hour) = av miles

distance from the opposite direction to the end = b hours × u mph = bu miles

distance from where he started to the end = (av + bu) miles

how long does it take a 750watt heater operating at full rating to rais the temperature of 1kg of water From 40°C to 70°C {S.H.C
siniylev [52]

Answer:

168 seconds (2 min 48 s)

Explanation:

Find the heat absorbed by the water.

q = mCΔT

q = (1 kg) (4200 J/kg/K) (70°C − 40°C)

q = 126,000 J

Power is energy per time.

P = q / t

750 W = 126,000 J / t

t = 168 s

It takes 168 seconds (2 min 48 s).

in an experiment which the volume of dry sand is measured by the displacement of water, the sand was slightly wet to begin with.
Mamont248 [21]
It would mean that you could not know the precise volume of the sand. Only the volume of the sand plus the water that was making it damp.

In the experiments listed, the effects are easy to deduce by understanding that the water in the sand adds volume to the 'sample' being measured.

So in the case of calculating air space you would calculate <em>less</em> air space.

On the way to school, Jed traveled 100m north, 300m east, 100 north, 100m east, and 100m north. A.) Find the total distance trav
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

Total distance = 700 m

Displacement = 500 m

Explanation:

Notice that Jed travelled a total of 3 x 100 m = 300 m in the North direction, and 300 m + 100 m = 400 m in the East direction. Therefore the total distance he travelled is:  300 + 400 = 700 m.

But the actual displacement is given by the Pythagorean theorem as the hypotenuse of a right angle triangle of legs 300 m and 400 m:

displacement = \sqrt{300^2+400^2} =\sqrt{250000} =500\,m
