Answer: <u><em>78 miles apart     if i can get brainliest that would be great </em></u>

Speed is given by dividing distance by time.

That is; speed = distance/time

In this case; speed = 52 mph and the time is 1.5 hours

Distance= speed × time

Thus;  Distance = 52 × 1.5

                         = 78 miles

Thus the cities are 78 miles apart

A river flows due east at 1.60 m/s. A boat crosses the river from the south shore to the north shore by maintaining a constant v
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

part (a) v\ =\ 10.42\ at\ 81.17^o towards north east direction.

part (b) s = 46.60 m

Explanation:

Given,

  • velocity of the river due to east = v_r\ =\ 1.60\ m/s.
  • velocity of the boat due to the north = v_b\ =\ 10.3\ m/s.

part (a)

River is flowing due to east and the boat is moving in the north, therefore both the velocities are perpendicular to each other and,

Hence the resultant velocity i,e, the velocity of the boat relative to the shore is in the North east direction. velocities are the vector quantities, Hence the resultant velocity is the vector addition of these two velocities and the angle between both the velocities are 90^o

Let 'v' be the velocity of the boat relative to the shore.

\therefore v\ =\ \sqrt{v_r^2\ +\ v_b^2}\\\Rightarrow v\ =\ \sqrt{1.60^2\ +\ 10.3^2}\\\Rightarrow v\ =\ 10.42\ m/s.

Let \theta be the angle of the velocity of the boat relative to the shore with the horizontal axis.

Direction of the velocity of the boat relative to the shore.\therefore Tan\theta\ =\ \dfrac{v_b}{v_r}\\\Rightarrow Tan\theta\ =\ \dfrac{10.3}{1.60}\\\Rightarrow \theta\ =\ Tan^{-1}\left (\dfrac{10.3}{1.60}\ \right )\\\Rightarrow \theta\ =\ 81.17^o

part (b)

  • Width of the shore = w = 300m

total distance traveled in the north direction by the boat is equal to the product of the velocity of the boat in north direction and total time taken

Let 't' be the total time taken by the boat to cross the width of the river.\therefore w\ =\ v_bt\\\Rightarrow t\ =\ \dfrac{w}{v_b}\\\Rightarrow t\ =\ \dfrac{300}{10.3}\\\Rightarrow t\ =\ 29.12 s

Therefore the total distance traveled in the direction of downstream by the boat is equal to the product of the total time taken and the velocity of the river\therefore s\ =\ u_rt\\\Rightarrow s\ =\ 1.60\times 29.12\\\Rightarrow s\ =\ 46.60\ m

An 85-kg refrigerator is located on the 70th floor of a skyscraper (4km above the ground ) what is the potential energy
Airida [17]
Potential energy can be calculated using the following rule:
potential energy = mgh where:
m is the mass = 85 kg
g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/sec^2
h is the height = 4 km = 4000 meters

Substitute in the above equation to get the potential energy as follows:
Potential energy = 85*9.8*4000 = 3332000 joules

Two identical stones, A and B, are thrown from a cliff from the same height and with the same initial speed. Stone A is thrown v
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

This can be explained based on the conservation of energy.

The total mechanical energy of the system remain constant in the absence of any external force. Also, the total mechanical energy of the system is the sum of the potential energy and the kinetic energy associated with the system.

In case of two stones thrown from a cliff one vertically downwards the other vertically upwards, the overall gravitational potential energy remain same for the two stones as the displacement of the stones is same.

Therefore the kinetic energy and hence the speed of the two stones should also be same in order for the mechanical energy to remain conserved.
