Fiora starts riding her bike at 18 mi/h. After a while, she slows down to 12 mi/h, and maintains that speed for the rest of the

trip. The whole trip of 69 miles takes her 4.5 hours. For how long did she travel at 18 mi/h?

Answer:

t = 2.5 hours

Explanation:

given,

speed of the bike for t time= 18 mi/h

final speed of the bike after t time = 12 mi/h

total distance, D = 69 miles

total time, T= 4.5 hour

time for which speed of the bike is 18 mi/h = ?

we know distance = speed x time

now,

18 x t + 12 (4.5 - t) = 69

6 t + 54 = 69

6 t = 15

t = 2.5 hours

The bike was at the speed of 18 mi/h for 2.5 hours.

How far apart must two protons be if the electrical force acting on either one is equal to its weight on the earth's surface whe
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

G M m / R^2 = F   force of attraction for proton

K e^2 / r^2 = F     force of attraction between 2 protons

G M m / R^2 = K e^2 / r^2

r^2 = K e^2 R^2 / (G M m)

r^2 = 9E9 * (1.6E-19)^2 * (6.37E6)^2 / (6.67E-11 * 5.98E24 * 1.7E-27)

r^2 = 9 * 2.56 * 40.6 / (6.67 * 5.98 * 1.7) * 10^-19

r^2 = 1.38 * 10^-30

r = 1.17E-15 m

An aluminum "12 gauge" wire has a diameter d of 0.205 centimeters. The resistivity ρ of aluminum is 2.75×10−8 ohm-meters. The el
Alborosie

Answer:

I = 4.75 A

Explanation:

To find the current in the wire you use the following relation:

J=\frac{E}{\rho}      (1)

E: electric field E(t)=0.0004t2−0.0001t+0.0004

ρ: resistivity of the material = 2.75×10−8 ohm-meters

J: current density

The current density is also given by:

J=\frac{I}{A}        (2)

I: current

A: cross area of the wire = π(d/2)^2

d: diameter of the wire = 0.205 cm = 0.00205 m

You replace the equation (2) into the equation (1), and you solve for the current I:

\frac{I}{A}=\frac{E(t)}{\rho}\\\\I(t)=\frac{AE(t)}{\rho}

Next, you replace for all variables:

I(t)=\frac{\pi (d/2)^2E(t)}{\rho}\\\\I(t)=\frac{\pi(0.00205m/2)^2(0.0004t^2-0.0001t+0.0004)}{2.75*10^{-8}\Omega.m}\\\\I(t)=4.75A

hence, the current in the wire is 4.75A

How do scientists know our universe is older than 6500 years?
dmitriy555 [2]
<span>This is because astronomers have discovered that the Crab Nebula is 6500 light years from earth. This means it takes 6500 earth years for light to get from the Crab Nebula to earth. Therefore, if we are able to observe the Crab Nebula and beyond it then it means that earth has been in existence for 6500 years and over.  </span>
