How long does it take a person to skate the width of a hockey rink (85 feet) at a constant speed of 15 feet per second?

1 answer:

3 0

S(travel distance)=85 ft
v (velocity)=15 ft/s
-----------------------------------
t (time)=?

Calculate the time with the formula for the velocity:
v=S/t
t=S/v
t=85 ft/(15 ft/s)
t=5.666s

Calculate the number of electrons passing a point in the wire in 1 min when the current is 1 A

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Explanation:

When one coulomb charge passes through any cross section of the wire per second,the current passing is one ampere. Charge of electron ,e=1.6X10^-19C. n=1/(1.6X10^-19)=6.25X10^18.Sep 17, 2017

Which process is the most scientifically plausible explanation for how the organisms released oxygen into Earth's atmosphere? Gr

Stels [109]

Answer:

Photosynthesis

Explanation:

Studies about the time period of oxygen accumulation suggests that free oxygen was first produced by prokaryotic and then later by eukaryotic organisms in the ocean. These organisms carried out photosynthesis more efficiently, producing oxygen as a waste product.

The organism mainly responsible for this is known as cyanobacteria, or blue-green algae. These microbes conduct photosynthesis: using sunshine, water and carbon dioxide to produce carbohydrates and, oxygen.

A spaceship ferrying workers to Moon Base I takes a straight-line path from the earth to the moon, a distance of 384,000 km. Sup

Tema [17]

Answer:

a) v = 19,149.6 m/s

b) f = 95%

c) t = 346.5min

Explanation:

First put all values in metric units:

$15.8 min*\frac{60s}{1min}=948s$

The equation of motion you need is:

$v_f = a*t+v_0$

where $v_f$ is the final velocity, a is acceleration and t is time in hours.

Since the spaceship starts from 0 velocity:

$v_f = a*t = 20.2*948 = 19,149.6 m/s$

Next, you need to calculate the distances traveled on each interval, considering that both starting and final intervals travel the same distance because the acceleration and time are equal. For this part you need the next motion equation:

$x=\frac{v_0+v_f}{2}t$
