Answer:

21.7 seconds.

Explanation:

Woman's velocity relative to train (23 m/s - 22.4 m/s) = 0.6 m/s

Distance woman wants to travel = 13m

To find how long she will take to move 13m relative to the train, take the distance she wants to travel divided by her velocity relative to the train.

(13m)/(0.6 m/s) = 21.6667 seconds or 21.7 seconds.  

Therefore, it will take the woman 21.7 seconds to move 13m.

Zielflug [23.3K]
Using the Equation:
                                 v² = vi² + 2 · a · s    → Eq.1
where,
v = final velocity 
vi = initial velocity 
a = acceleration 
s = distance 

<span><span>We know that vi = 0 because the ball was at rest initially.
</span><span>
Therefore,

Solving Eq.1 for acceleration,
 
</span></span> v² = vi² + 2 · a · s
 v² = 0 + 2 · a · s
 v² = 2 · a · s
Rearranging for a,

PLS HELP<br><br> compare longitudinal and transverse waves
babymother [125]
<span>A transverse wave is one for which the direction of oscillation is perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave whereas, for longitudinalwaves oscillations are in the direction of propagation. Ripples in pond water move about the surface of water and they simultaneously move away from the point-0 too.</span><span>
Longitudinal waves include sound waves(vibrations in pressure, particle of displacement, and particle velocity propagated in an elastic medium) and seismic P-waves (created by earthquakes and explosions). In longitudinal waves, the displacement of the medium is parallel to the propagation of thewave.
