For the answer to the question above, 
 the distance from i to j is 5 parts 
(2 parts from i to k and 3 parts from k to j) 

The y distance from i to j is 
10 - 2 = 8 

Each part is 8/5 = 1.6 
Therefore the distance between the 2 parts from i to k is 3.2 

From the y coordinate of I which is 2 plus the 3.2 to point k 
2 + 3.2 = 5.2 

Answer y =5.2 

Now just convert that to fraction and that will be the answer

A railroad car moving at a speed of 3.46 m/s overtakes, collides and couples with two coupled railroad cars moving in the same d
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

2.09\ \text{m/s}

22298.4\ \text{J}

Explanation:

m = Mass of each the cars = 1.6\times 10^4\ \text{kg}

u_1 = Initial velocity of first car = 3.46 m/s

u_2 = Initial velocity of the other two cars = 1.4 m/s

v = Velocity of combined mass

As the momentum is conserved in the system we have

mu_1+2mu_2=3mv\\\Rightarrow v=\dfrac{u_1+2u_2}{3}\\\Rightarrow v=\dfrac{3.46+2\times 1.4}{3}\\\Rightarrow v=2.09\ \text{m/s}

Speed of the three coupled cars after the collision is 2.09\ \text{m/s}.

As energy in the system is conserved we have

K=\dfrac{1}{2}mu_1^2+\dfrac{1}{2}2mu_2^2-\dfrac{1}{2}3mv^2\\\Rightarrow K=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 1.6\times 10^4\times 3.46^2+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 2\times 1.6\times 10^4\times 1.4^2-\dfrac{1}{2}\times 3\times 1.6\times 10^4\times 2.09^2\\\Rightarrow K=22298.4\ \text{J}

The kinetic energy lost during the collision is 22298.4\ \text{J}.

A scientist conducting a field investigation records measurements of very low pressure and high relative humidity at the top of
Ivan

Answer:

Please find the answer in the explanation

Explanation:

Given that a scientist conducting a field investigation records measurements of very low pressure and high relative humidity at the top of a mountain.

Since a weather map indicates that a warm front is approaching the mountain, according to the conventional current, the warm front is approaching because the weather must have been in higher relative humidity in cool air.

The warm front is approaching to replace it so that the cool air can conventionally replace the warmth air too.

The condition the scientists will most likely observe at the top of the mountain will be high relative humidity.
