1) Average velocity: 19 mi/h

The average velocity is given by:

v=\frac{d}{t}

where

d is the displacement

t is the time taken

In this problem,

d = 3.8 mi is the displacement

t=12 min \cdot \frac{1}{60 min/h}=0.2 h is the time taken

Substituting,

v=\frac{3.8 mi}{0.2 h}=19 mi/h

Note that this is actually the average speed, not the average velocity, since there is no information about the direction of the motion.

2) 10,309 mi/h^2

The acceleration is given by

a=\frac{v-u}{t}

where we have

v = 28 mph is the final velocity

u = 18 mph is the initial velocity

t = 3.5 s is the time taken

Conerting the time from seconds to hours,

t=3.5 s \cdot \frac{1}{3600 s/h}=9.7\cdot 10^{-4} h

So the acceleration is

a=\frac{28 mph-18 mph}{9.7\cdot 10^{-4} h}=10,309 mi/h^2

According to the directions on a can of frozen orange juice concentrate, 1 can of concentrate is to be mixed with 3 cans of wate
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

25

Explanation:

Given:

1 can of concentrate requires 3 cans of water

Now,

Total ounces in 200 6-ounce cans = 1200 ounces

also,

for 1 can of concentrate requires 3 cans of water

thus,

for 12 ounces can water can required = 3 × 12 ounces = 36 ounces of cans

Thus,

total ounce of juice per can = 12 + 36 = 48 ounces per can

therefore,

the number of 12-ounce cans required  are = \frac{\textup{Ttoal ounces}}{\textup{Ounces per can}}

or

= \frac{\textup{1200}}{\textup{48}}

or

the number of 12-ounce cans required  are = 25

Superman is standing 393 m horizontally away from Lois Lane. A villain drops a rock from 4.00 m directly above Lois. If Superman
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

-963.93 m/s²

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 4=0t+\frac{1}{2}\times 9.81\times t^2\\\Rightarrow t=\sqrt{\frac{4\times 2}{9.81}}\\\Rightarrow t=0.903\ s

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 393=0\times 0.0903+\frac{1}{2}\times a\times 0.903^2\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{393\times 2}{0.903^2}\\\Rightarrow a=963.93\ m/s^2

The acceleration of Superman would be -963.93 m/s² from Lois' perspective

URGENT DUE IN HALF AN HOUR:
Umnica [9.8K]
If all the sides are equal, then it is an equilateral triangle. This means after walking 100 meters, you had to turn 1/3 of 180 degrees (because that's what the interior angles of the triangle add up to).

So, 180 * 1/3 = 60 degrees.

We aren't done yet.

60 degrees is not the angle which you have turned from your path.

You turned 120 degrees to describe an angle of 60 degrees on the interior side.

The answer is B.

Which of the following is true of children with chronic illness? a.) They are all eligible to recievie special education service
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

c.) Their eligibility for social education services depends on whether their conditions adversely affect their educational functioning.

Explanation:

Chronic Illness is a human health condition in which a particular (or number of) illness is persistent in the body and the effects on the body are long-lasting and are often resistant to treatment. The word chronic is usually used when the disease/illness/sickness and its effects stay in the body for more than three months.

The likeliest answer from the options given is option C because before social education services are given, it has to be decided if their health condition adversely affects their education.
