Carl is eating lunch at his favorite cafe when his friend Isaac calls and says he wants to meet him. Isaac is calling from a cit

y 175 miles away, and wants to meet Carl somewhere between the two locations. Isaac says he will start driving right away, but Carl needs 35.0 min to finish his lunch before he can begin driving. Isaac plans to drive at 65.0 mph , and Carl plans to drive at 50.0 mph . Ignore acceleration and assume the highway forms a straight line. How long will Isaac be driving before he meets Carl?

Answer:

106.52 minutes

Explanation:

Given:

Initial distance between Carl and Isaac = 175 miles

speed of Isaac = 65 mph

Speed of Carl = 50 mph

Now, the Carl starts after 35 minutes, but the Isaac has already started so the distance covered by Isaac in 35 minutes will be

= \frac{35}{60}\times65

= 37.91 miles

Therefore,

the distance left between Isaac and Carl = 175 - 37.91 = 137.09 miles

Since Isaac and Carl are moving towards each other,

therefore the relative speed between the both = 65 + 50 = 115 mph

Hence, the time taken to meet = \frac{137.09}{115}

or

The time taken to meet = 1.192 hours

or

The time taken = 1.192 × 60 = 71.52 minutes

Therefore the total time Isaac have been travelling = 71.52 + 35

= 106.52 minutes

What does that make?
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

lithium

Explanation:

A lithium atom contains 3 protons in its nucleus irrespective of the number of neutrons or electrons. Notice that because the lithium atom always has 3 protons, the atomic number for lithium is always 3. The mass number, however, is 6 in the isotope with 3 neutrons, and 7 in the isotope with 4 neutrons.

A 62kg box is lifted 12 meters off the ground. How much work is done?
Temka [501]

Answer: 7291.2 joules

Explanation:

Work is done when force is applied on an object over a distance.

Thus, Workdone = Force X distance

Since Distance moved by box = 12 metres

mass of box = 62kg

Acceleration due to gravity when box was lifted is represented by g = 9.8m/s^2

Recall that Force = Mass x acceleration due to gravity

i.e Force = 62kg x 9.8m/s^2

= 607.6 Newton

So, Workdone = Force X Distance

Workdone = 607.6 Newton X 12 metres

Workdone = 7291.2 joules

Thus, 7291.2 joules of work was done.

an experiment is set up to measure the effect of a gasoline additive on fuel consumption rate. what would be the control in this
Tamiku [17]
The control setup in this experiment would be one tank that does not contain any of the additives. Since the tanks with the gasoline additives would need to be compared with a tank that is not affected by the results of these additives.

A delivery truck travels 2.8 km North, 1.0 km East, and 1.6 km South. The final displacement from the origin is ___km to the ___
34kurt

Answer:

The final displacement from the origin is <u>1.6</u> km to the <u>NE</u>

Explanation:

The directions in which the delivery truck travels are;

1) 2.8 km North = 2.8·\hat j, in vector form

2) 1.0 km East = 1.0·\hat i, in vector form

3) 1.6 km South = -1.6·\hat j, in vector form

Therefore, to find the final displacement, Δx, of the delivery truck, we add the individual displacements as follows;

Final displacement, Δd = 2.8·\hat j + 1.0·\hat i +(-1.6·\hat j) = 1.2·\hat j + 1.0·\hat i

Final displacement, = 1.0·\hat i + 1.2·\hat j

Where;

Δx = The displacement in the x-direction = 1.0·\hat i

Δy = The displacement in the y-direction = 1.2·\hat j

The magnitude of the resultant displacement vector is given as follows

\left | d \right | = √((Δx)² + (Δy)²) = √(1² + 1.2²) ≈ 1.6 (To the nearest tenth)

The magnitude of the resultant displacement vector ≈ 1.6 km

The direction of the resultant vector is positive for both the east and north direction, therefore, the direction of the resultant vector = NE

Therefore, the resultant displacement of the delivery truck is approximately 1.6 km, NE from the origin.
