The speed of the current in a river is 6 mph. A ferry operator who works that part of the river is looking to buy a new boat for

his business. Every day, his route takes him 22.5 miles against the current and back to his dock, and he needs to make this trip in a total of 9 hours. He has a boat in mind, but he can only test it on a lake where there is no current. How fast must the boat go on the lake in order for it to serve the ferry operator’s needs?

The first step is to determine the rate using the given values. Distance formula 9(x-6)=45 is used where the rate is x-6. Value of x is equivalent to 11. The average speed that covers 45 miles in 9 hours is 5 miles per hour having no current.

What is the mass of 3 m3 of a substance having density 1200 kg/m3​
adell [148]

Answer:

3600 kg

Explanation:

From the question,

Density = Mass/Volume

D = M/V.............................. Equation 1

Where D = Density of the substance, M = mass of the substance, V = Volume of the subtance.

Make M the subject of the equation

M = D×V ............................ Equation 2

Given: D = 1200 kg/m³, V = 3 m³.

Substitute these values into equation 2

M = 1200×3

M = 3600 kg.

Hence the mass of the substance is 3600 kg

Does the depth of a pot affect how water freezes
Iteru [2.4K]
In my opinion it does. The more water the pot holds, the longer you need to wait for it to freeze. Since there is more water, some parts may not be completely frozen. An experiment you can try is to get an ice cube container and a pot. fill both of them and put them in the freezer for the same amount of time. When you take it out, the ice cubes should be frozen leaving the pot with cold water.
