Let the unknown distance be xmiles
x/39-x/72=11hr
72x-39x/2808=11hr
33x/2808=11
33x= 30888
x=936miles
U can substitue back to check
at speed of 72mph, he would need 936/72=13hrs
at speed of 39mph, he would need 936/39=24hr
the difference is 24-13=11

A 3.9 kg ball traveling towards a soccer player at a velocity of -3.5 m/s rebounds off the soccer player's foot at a velocity of
Tresset [83]

Answer: 2.92 s

Explanation:

Given

Mass of ball is m=3.9\ kg

The initial velocity of the ball is u=-3.5\ m/s

Velocity after the rebound is v=15.9\ m/s

Force during the contact is F=25.9\ N

We know, change in momentum is Impulse

\Rightarrow F\cdot \Delta t=m(\Delta v)

\Rightarrow 25.9\cdot \Delta t=3.9(15.9-(-3.5))\\\\\Rightarrow \Delta t=\dfrac{3.9\times 19.4}{25.9}=2.92\ s

Thus, the force is applied for 2.92 s

A protein molecule in an electrophoresis gel has a negative charge.The exact charge depends on the pH of the solution, but 30 ex
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

The magnitude of the electric force on a protein with this charge is 7.2\times10^{-15}\ N

Explanation:

Given that,

Electric field = 1500 N/C

Charge = 30 e

We need to calculate the magnitude of the electric force on a protein with this charge

Using formula of electrostatic force

F=Eq

Where, F = force

E = electric field

q = charge

Put the value into the formula

F=1500\times30\times1.6\times10^{-19}

F=7.2\times10^{-15}\ N

Hence, The magnitude of the electric force on a protein with this charge is 7.2\times10^{-15}\ N

A calorimeter directly measures ______ in order to calculate ______. (1 point)
Aneli [31]

The complete sentence is:

A calorimeter directly measures changes in temperature in order to calculate specific heat.

In fact, the amount of energy acquired/released by a substance is directly proportional to its change in temperature due to the equation

Q=mC_s \Delta T

where Q is the amount of energy, m is the mass of the substance, Cs is the specific heat of the substance and \Delta T is the change in temperature. Therefore, by knowing Q, m and by measuring the change in temperature, it is possible to calculate Cs, the specific heat capacity of the substance.
