MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

The average speed of the elevator going down in the abandoned mine is 17.722mph.

Explanation:

If the elevator takes 90 seconds to descend a height of 713m, the average speed of the elevator is:

$v_{av}=x_T/t_T=713m/90s=7.922m/s$

And if 1m/s is 2.23694mph, the average speed is:

$v_{av}=7.922m/s=17.722mph$ .

Which as more weight a kilogram of bricks in air or a kilogram of feathers in water? Explain your answer.

ale4655 [162]

A kilogram is a unit of weight. So a kilogram of bricks would weigh the same as a kilogram of feathers despite if its in water or air since weight is determined by gravity in relation to mass and not what substance the object is in.

Write this large number in scientific notation. Determine the values of Vm) and (n) when the following mass of the Earth is writ

hichkok12 [17]

Answer : The answer is, 5.97, 24

Explanation :

Scientific notation : It is the representation of expressing the numbers that are too big or too small and are represented in the decimal form with one digit before the decimal point times 10 raise to the power.

For example :

5000 is written as $5.0\times 10^3$

889.9 is written as $8.899\times 10^{-2}$

In this examples, 5000 and 889.9 are written in the standard notation and $5.0\times 10^3$ and $8.899\times 10^{-2}$ are written in the scientific notation.

If the decimal is shifting to right side, the power of 10 is negative and if the decimal is shifting to left side, the power of 10 is positive.

As we are given the 5,970,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 in standard notation.

Now converting this into scientific notation, we get:

$\Rightarrow 5,970,000,000,000,000,000,000,000=5.97\times 10^{24}$

As, the decimal point is shifting to left side, thus the power of 10 is positive.

Hence, the answer is, $5.97\times 10^{24}$

Now the answer is comparing to $m.\times 10^n$

So, m = 5.97 and n = 24

Thus, the answer is, 5.97, 24

A boat, whose speed in still water is 8.0 m/s, crosses a river with a current of 6.0 m/s. If the boat heads perpendicular to the

kirill [66]

Answer: D

Rs = 10.0 m/s

The speed of the boat relative to an observer standing on the shore as it crosses the river is 10.0m/s

Explanation:

Since the boat is moving perpendicular to the current of the river, the speed of the boat has two components.

i. 8.0m/s in the direction perpendicular to the current

ii. 6.0m/s in the direction of the current.

So, the resultant speed can be derived by using the equation;

Rs = √(Rx^2 + Ry^2)

Taking

Ry = 8.0m/s

Rx = 6.0m/s

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Rs = √(6.0^2 + 8.0^2)

Rs = √(36+64) = √100

Rs = 10.0 m/s

The speed of the boat relative to an observer standing on the shore as it crosses the river is 10.0m/s

Solve for y<br>11=y/3+7

butalik [34]

Answer:

Explanation:

11 = y/3+7

collecting like terms

11 - 7 = y/3

4 = y/3

multiplying both sides by 3 gives us

12 = y

therefore

y = 12
