Answer:v=142.85 mph

Explanation:

Given

Distance between two cities is 1000 miles

Speed of plane 1 id 250 mph

Plane 1 leaves at 7 am and Plane 2 leaves at 7:30 am

They will collide if plane 2 travels 300 miles and Plane  1 travels 400 miles in t and t+0.5 hr  respectively

Time taken by plane 2

t=\frac{300}{v}----1

time taken by plane  1 to travel 400 miles

t+0.5=\frac{400}{250}-----2

substitute value of t in 2

\frac{300}{v}+0.5=\frac{400}{250}

\frac{300}{v}=2.1

v=\frac{300}{2.1}=142.85 mph

A car traveling at 60km/h undergoes uniform acceleration at a rate of 2/ms^2 until is velocity reached 120km/h determine the dis
jenyasd209 [6]

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed of a car, u = 60 km/h = 16.67 m/s

Acceleration, a = 2m/s²

Final speed, v = 120 km/h = 33.33 m/s

We need to find the distance traveled and the time taken to make the distance.

acceleration = rate of change of velocity

a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}\\\\t=\dfrac{v-u}{a}\\\\t=\dfrac{33.33 -16.67 }{2}\\\\t=8.33\ s

let the distance be d.

d=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\\d=\frac{33.33^{2}-16.67^{2}}{2(2)}\\\\d=208.25\ m

Hence, the distance traveled and the time taken to make the distance is 208.25 m and 8.33 seconds respectively.

A light wave encounters a partial physical barrier, such as a wall with a hole in it. What is MOST LIKELY to occur?
tatiyna
Most likely, the light wave will be absorbed by the wall. Without any information as to the size and color of the wall, the location and size of the hole, or the location of the light wave, this is a generalized probability problem. For all of the places the light could be, it's more likely that it hits the wall than the hole (if the hole is less than 50% of the area of the wall).

A viscous fluid is flowing through two horizontal pipes. They have the same length, although the radius of one pipe is three tim
Rudik [331]

The conservation of the mass of fluid through two sections (be they A1 and A2) of a conduit (pipe) or current tube establishes that the mass that enters is equal to the mass that exits. Mathematically the input flow must be the same as the output flow,

Q_1 = Q_2

The definition of flow is given by

Q =VA

Where

V = Velocity

A = Area

The units of the flow of flow are cubic meters per second, that is to say that if there is a continuity, the volume of input must be the same as that of output, what changes if the sections are modified are the proportions of speed.

In this way

Q_A = Q_B

Q_B = 2.94*10^2 m^3/s
