The Pony Express was a mail delivery system in the Old West that used a series of men on horseback to deliver mail from St. Jose

ph, MO to Sacramento, CA along a trail that was 2000 miles long. True or false: If each rider traveled 100 miles, got a fresh horse every 10 miles, and maintained an average speed of 10 mi/hr, it took 150 horses for each delivery.A. TrueB. False

Answer:

the given statement is False

Explanation:

given,                                                          

distance of the trail = 2000 miles long          

each rider traveled = 100 miles                        

every fresh horse travel = 10 miles                    

to maintain speed of = 10 mile/hr                      

the given statement is                                            

150 horses is used for each delivery.                    

if each horse is allowed to travel 10 miles to travel

distance traveled using 150 horses = 150 x 10

                                                            = 1500 miles

to travel 2000 miles horse required is equal to 200.

so, the given statement is False

3. A 5 gm/100 ml solution of drug X is stored in a closed test tube
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The degradation of the drug is a first order process;

Hence;

ln[A] = ln[A]o - kt

Where;

ln[A] = final concentration of the drug

ln[A]o= initial concentration of the drug = 5 gm/100

k= degradation constant = 0.05 day-1

t= time taken

When [A] =[ A]o - 0.5[A]o = 0.5[A]o

ln2.5 = ln5 - 0.05t

ln2.5- ln5 = - 0.05t

t= ln2.5- ln5/-0.05

t= 0.9162 - 1.6094/-0.05

t= 14 days

b) when [A] = [A]o - 0.9[A]o = 0.1[A]o

ln0.5 = ln5 -0.05t

t= ln0.5 - ln5/0.05

t= -0.693 - 1.6094/-0.05

t= 46 days

What is the difference in Neil Armstrong’s weight on the moon and on earth? Neils mass is 160kg including his spacesuit and back
Len [333]

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of Neil Armstrong = 160kg

Gravitational pull of earth = 10N/kg

Moon's pull = 17% of the earth's pull

Unknown:

Difference between Armstrong's weight on moon and on earth.

Solution:

To find the weight,

   Weight = mass x acceleration due to gravity = mg

Moon's gravitational pull = 17% of the earth's pull = 17% x 10 = 1.7N/kg

Weight on moon = 160 x 1.7 = 272N

Weight on earth = 160 x 10 = 1600N

The difference in weight = 1600 - 272 = 1328N

The weight of Armstrong on earth is 1328N more than on the moon.

Which device uses a rotating magnetic field to produce an electric current?
Kay [80]
<span>The correct answer is C) a motor.
In particular, we are talking about an AC motor, which produces an alternating current. In an AC motor, a coil is immersed in a rotating magnetic field. Due to the motion of the magnetic field,the angle between the direction of the field and the surface enclosed by the coil changes. As a result, the magnetic flux through the coil changes over time (the magnetic flux is given by:
</span>\phi=BAcos\theta<span>
where B is the intensity of the magnetic field, A is the area enclosed by the coil and </span>\theta<span> is the angle between the direction of B and the perpendicular to the plane of the coil). For Faraday-Newmann-Lenz law, this change in flux induces an electromotive force (emf) into the coil, according to:
</span>emf=- \frac{d \Phi}{dt}<span>
 where the numerator is the variation of magnetic flux and dt is the time interval. This emf in the coil produced an electrical current in the circuit.</span>
