Answer:
1.5 m
Explanation:
Length. L = 12 m
Width, W = 16 m
Area, A = 12 x 16 = 192 m^2
Let the width of pavement be d.
The new length, L' = 12 + 2d
the new width, W' = 16 + 2d
New Area, A' = L' x W' = (12 + 2d)(16 + 2d) = 192 + 56 d + 4d^2
Difference in area = A' - A
285 = 192 + 56 d + 4d^2 - 192
93 = 56 d + 4d^2
4d^2 + 56 d - 93 = 0
\
d = 1.5 m
Thus, the width of the pavement is 1.5 m.
Answer:
e) 120m/s
Explanation:
When the ball reaches its highest point, its velocity becomes zero, meaning
.
where is the initial velocity.
Solving for we get
which is the time it takes the ball to reach the highest point.
Now, after the ball has reached its highest point, it turns around and falls downwards. After time since it had reached the highest point, the ball has traveled downwards and the velocity
it has gained is
,
and we are told that this is twice the initial velocity ; therefore,
which gives
Thus, the total time taken to reach velocity is
This , we are told, is 36 seconds; therefore,
and solving for we get:
which from the options given is choice e.
Answer : Yes, distance measurements based on the speed of light used for objects in space.
Explanation : A light year is measurement of distance that light travel in a one year.
In a one year light travels 9460000000000 kilometer.
We know that, speed of light is
and time is 31536000 seconds in 1 year
so, distance = speed of light X time
Now, the light year is
Example : The nearest star to earth is about 4.3 light year away.
