Twin​ brothers, Andy and​ Brian, can mow their​ grandparents lawn together in 1212 minutes. Brian would mow the lawn by himself
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

It will take Andy 1.198minutes to mow the lawn and it will take Brian 1,209.98minutes to mow the same lawn.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the simultaneous equation concept, let A denote Andy and B be Brian

Andy and Brian can mow the lawn for 1212minutes i.e A+B = 1212..eqn 1

If Brian would mow the lawn by himself in 1010 minutes more than it would take Andy, this means B=1010A...eqn 2.

Substituting eqn 2 into eqn 1

Equation 1 becomes

A+1010A=1212

1011A=1212

A=1212/1011

A=1.198

B = 1010×1.198

B=1,209.98

Therefore, It will take Andy 1.198minutes to mow the lawn and it will take Brian 1,209.98minutes to mow the same lawn.

A battery establishes a voltage V on a parallel-plate capacitor. After the battery is disconnected, the distance between the pla
Semmy [17]

Answer:

In the parallel plate capacitor

The capacitance will decrease between the plates.

The voltage will increase between the plates.

Explanation:

When the distance between the plates increase, then the voltage also increases as it varies with the separation of plates. However the capacitance will decrease upon increasing the distance. As the capacitance depends upon the electric field between the plates. Field is stronger when the plates are closer so capacitance increase. Field will be weaker upon increasing the distance and hence the capacitance decreases.
