Answer:

It will take Andy 1.198minutes to mow the lawn and it will take Brian 1,209.98minutes to mow the same lawn.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the simultaneous equation concept, let A denote Andy and B be Brian

Andy and Brian can mow the lawn for 1212minutes i.e A+B = 1212..eqn 1

If Brian would mow the lawn by himself in 1010 minutes more than it would take Andy, this means B=1010A...eqn 2.

Substituting eqn 2 into eqn 1

Equation 1 becomes

A+1010A=1212

1011A=1212

A=1212/1011

A=1.198

B = 1010×1.198

B=1,209.98

Therefore, It will take Andy 1.198minutes to mow the lawn and it will take Brian 1,209.98minutes to mow the same lawn.

You have a neutral balloon. What is its charge after 12000 electrons have been removed from it? The elemental charge is 1.6 × 10
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

1.92×10^-9 microCoulomb

Explanation:

Elemental charge = 1.6×10^-19 Coulomb

Charge of balloon after 12,000 electrons have been removed from it = 12,000 × 1.6×10^-19 Coulomb = 1.92×10^-15 Coulomb = 1.92×10^-15/10^-6 = 1.92×10^-9 microCoulomb

An automobile moves at a constant speed over the crest of a hill traveling at a speed of 88.5 km/h. At the top of the hill, a pa
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

r=61.65m

Explanation:

Since the package remains in contact with the car's seat, the package's speed is equal to the car's speed. At the top on the mountain the package's centripetal force must be equal to its weight:

mg=F_c

The centripetal force is defined as:

F_c=ma_c=\frac{mv^2}{r}

Here v is the linear speed of the object and r is the radius of curvature. We need to convert the linear speed to \frac{m}{s}:

88.5\frac{km}{h}*\frac{1000m}{1km}*\frac{1h}{3600s}=24.58\frac{m}{s}

Now, we calculate r:

mg=\frac{mv^2}{r}\\r=\frac{v^2}{g}\\r=\frac{(24.58\frac{m}{s})^2}{9.8\frac{m}{s^2}}\\\\r=61.65m

How will the electrostatic force between two electric charges change if the first charge is doubled and the second charge is onl
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

B) \frac{2}{3}

Explanation:

The electric force between charges can be determined by;

F = \frac{kq_{1} q_{2} }{r^{2} }

Where: F is the force, k is the Coulomb's constant, q_{1} is the value of the first charge, q_{2} is the value of the second charge, r is the distance between the centers of the charges.

Let the original charge be represented by q, so that;

q_{1} = 2q

q_{2} = \frac{q}{3}

So that,

F = q_{1}q_{2} x \frac{k}{r^{2} }

  = 2q x \frac{q}{3} x \frac{k}{r^{2} }

  = \frac{2q^{2} }{3} x \frac{k}{r^{2} }

  = \frac{2}{3} x \frac{kq}{r^{2} }

F = \frac{2}{3} x \frac{kq}{r^{2} }

The electric force between the given charges would change by \frac{2}{3}.

Which statement is the best example of pseudoscience?
Nady [450]
<span>pseudoscience includes beliefs theories, or practices that have been or are considered scientific, but have no basis in scientific fact.
This could mean the were disproved scientifically, can't be tested or lack evidence to support them.
Examples:Channeling- involves communicating with a spirit through a person

 Astrology- beliefs that humans are affected by the position of celestial bodies

The bending of waves as they pass between media is called .?
Rufina [12.5K]

Refraction is the change in direction of waves that occurs when waves travel from one medium to another. Refraction is always accompanied by a wavelength and speed change. Diffraction is the bending of waves around obstacles and openings.
