A person travels by car from one city to another. She drives for 23.5 min at 74.5 km/h, 15.9 min at 111 km/h, 49.2 min at 38.7 k

m/h, and spends 17.3 min along the way eating lunch and buying gas. Determine the distance between the cities along this route. Answer in units of km.

The product of speed and time is distance. To calculate the total distance you multiple the speed in kilometers per second by the time at that speed in seconds, do this for all 3 different speeds then add them up, the 17.4 minutes eating does not affect the answer at all. to convert from minutes to seconds multiply time in minutes by 60, to convert from km/h to km/s divide km/h by 3600.

(23.5x60)x(74.5/3600) = 29.2km (rounded to 1 decimal place)
+
(15.9x60)x(111/3600) = 29.4km (rounded to 1 decimal place)
+
(49.2x60)x(38.7/3600) = 31.7km
=90.3km

The brackets are not necessary but i think it makes it more clear what is happening in your working.

During an auto accident, the vehicle's air bags deploy and slow down the passengers more gently than if they had hit the windshi
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

At a deceleration of 60g, or 60 times the acceleration due to gravity a person will travel a distance of 0.38 m before coing to a complete stop

Explanation:

The maximum acceleration of the airbag = 60 g, and the duration of the acceleration = 36 ms or 36/1000 s or 0.036 s

To find out how far (in meters) does a person travel in coming to a complete stop in 36 ms at a constant acceleration of 60g

we write out the equation of motion thus.

S = ut + 0.5at²

wgere

S = distance to come to complete stop

u = final velocoty = 0 m/s

a = acceleration = 60g = 60 × 9.81

t = time = 36 ms

as can be seen, the above equation calls up the given variable as a function of the required variable thus

S = 0×0.036 + 0.5×60×9.81×0.036² = 0.38 m

At 60g, a person will travel a distance of 0.38 m before coing to a complete stop

Determine the velocity of a car that travels 28km in 2.2 hours
OLga [1]

Answer:

<h2>velocity = 12.73 km/hr.</h2><h2 />

Explanation:

velocity = distance / time

              =<u> 28 km </u>

                  2.2 hr

               = 12.73 km/hr.

While standing on the edge of the grand canyon, you see a rattlesnake and scream. You hear the echo of the scream off canyon flo
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

1904 m

Explanation:

\pink{\frak{Given}}\begin{cases} \textsf{ You scream after seeing a rattle snake  .}\\\textsf{Scream is heard after 11.2 s .} \end{cases}

Here we need to find out the depth of the canyon . When you will scream after seeing a snake , the sound produced will travel till the end of the canyon and after hitting the end , it will travel back to you .

  • So if the depth of the canyon is d (say) , then the total distance travelled by the sound wave will be d + d = 2d .

And we know that the speed of the sound is approximately 340m/s in air , so we can use the formula distance = speed * time to calculate the depth of the canyon . So ,

\sf \longrightarrow Distance = (Speed)(Time) \\

\sf \longrightarrow 2d = 340m/s * 11.2 s\\

\sf \longrightarrow d = \dfrac{340m/s * 11.2s}{2} \\

\sf \longrightarrow \boxed{\bf Depth_{canyon}= 1904m }\\
