Very simple,Its all about calculating distance using the formula:
D = V x T
where,
V is the speed or velocity
D is distance
T is the time
In the given problem,there are two parts.
Lets do the calculations for both parts separately:
Part 1) Before the rain
Time = 130/95
         = 1.37 hours <span> </span>
<span>Time taken after the rain = Total time - time taken before the rain  </span>
<span>                                        = 3.34 hours - 1.37 hours
                                        = 1.97 hours </span>
<span>Distance covered after the rain = 1.97 hours x 65 km/h
                                                  = 128 km</span>
Hence,
<span>a) The total distance covered =  130 + 128
                                           = 258 km
</span><span>b) Average speed = Total distance/Total time
                             =  260/3.34
                             = 78 km/h </span>

A jet can travel the 6000 km distance between washington,
Andrei [34K]
<span> d = r*t is the basic distance equation
 d = 6000 km
 t with the tail wind = 6 hr
 r with the tail wind = speed of the plane + wind speed = s + w
 t with the head wind = 7.5 hr
 r with the head wind = speed of the plane - wind speed = s-w
 (s+w)*6 = 6000
 (s-w)*7.5 = 6000
 s + w = 1000
 s - w = 800
</span><span> 2s = 1800
 s = 900 km/h
 s + w = 1000
 w = 100
 Check the anwer by calculating the return trip.
 (900-100) * 7.5 = 800 * 7.5
 800 * 7.5 = 6000 km
 Answer: The rate of the jet in still air is 900 km/h. The rate of the wind is 100 km/hr.</span>

A potential difference of 3.00 nV is set up across a 2.00 cm length of copper wire that has a radius of 2.00 mm. How much charge
Anvisha [2.4K]

The number of charge drifts are 3.35 X 10⁻⁷C

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Potential difference, V = 3 nV = 3 X 10⁻⁹m

Length of wire, L = 2 cm = 0.02 m

Radius of the wire, r = 2 mm = 2 X 10⁻³m

Cross section, 3 ms

charge drifts, q = ?

We know,

the charge drifts through the copper wire is given by

q = iΔt

where Δt = 3 X 10⁻³s

and i = \frac{V}{R}

where R is the resistance

R = \frac{pL}{r^{2} \pi }

ρ is the resistivity of the copper wire = 1.69 X 10⁻⁸Ωm

So, i = \frac{\pi(r)^{2}V  }{pL}

q = \frac{\pi(r^{2} )Vt }{pL}

Substituting the values,

q = 3.14 X (0.02)² X 3 X 10⁻⁹ X 3 X 10⁻³ / 1.69 X 10⁻⁸ X 0.02

q = 3.35 X 10⁻⁷C

Therefore, the number of charge drifts are 3.35 X 10⁻⁷C
