Two trains 100 km apart are traveling toward each other along the same track. The first train goes 50 km per hour; the second tr

ain rushes along at 80 km per hour. A fly is hovering just above the nose of the first train. It buzzes from the first train to the second train, turns around immediately, flies back to the first train, and turns around again. It goes on flying back and forth between the two trains until they collide. If the fly's speed is 120 km per hour, how far will it travel(how much distance it will cover before colliding )?

Answer:

92.31 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Combined speed = 50+80

= 130 km/hour

Time = 100/130 = 10/13 hours to collide

Speed × time = distance

distance = 10/13 × 120

= 92.30769231 km

To show what he learned about the properties of volume for solids, liquids and gases, Viktor wrote the following summary.
Brrunno [24]

The wrong statement in Viktor's summary is When a round solid ball is placed in a box, the ball takes the shape of the box

The matter has three main states which are

  • Solid
  • Liquid
  • Gas

These states define the way we interact and manipulate materials. For instance:

  • Liquids take the shape of the container that contains them. For example water, milk, soda, among others.
  • Solids have a defined shape and do not deform when manipulated or placed inside another container. For example, a round solid ball.
  • Gases generally do not have colors and their atoms are not organized so they do not have a definite shape and take the shape of their container. For example, the air in a balloon.

According to the above, the error in Viktor's summary is in the first phase, and the correct statement is A. because solids does not take the shape of its container.

Help please ...........<br>number 13, 14, 15<br>​
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

13.  108 inches

14.  not similar (sides have different ratios)

15.  68

Step-by-step explanation:

13. You have two relationships between length and width:

  2L + 2W = 336 . . . . . the perimeter is 336 inches

  L/W = 9/5 . . . . . . . . . .the ratio of length to width is 9/5

Multiplying the second equation by 5/9W, we get

  5/9L = W

Now we can substitute that into the first equation to get ...

  2L +2(5/9L) = 336

Multiplying by 9 gives us ...

  18L +10L = 3024

And dividing by 28 gives ...

  3024/28 = L = 108 . . . . inches

___

14. Shortest to longest, the ratios of sides are 6 : 8 : 9 and 2 : 4 : 5. There is no value that will multiply the first ratio to give the second ratio. For example, multiplying by 1/3 gives ...

  2 : 2 2/3 : 3 . . . . <u>not</u> 2 : 4 : 5

Similar triangles have the same side ratios. These do not, so they are not similar triangles.

__

15. MP is a midsegment of triangle JKL and parallel to base JL. A midsegment is half the length of the parallel base. Then JL is twice as long as MP. JL is 68 units long.
