Answer:

2.16 inch

Explanation:

area under water = 66 km²

= 66 x ( 3280.84 x 12 )² inch²

= 1.023 x 10¹¹ sq inch

volume of rain = 9.57 x 10⁸  gallon = 9.57 x 10⁸ x 231 inch³

= 2.21 x 10¹¹ inch³

If depth of rainfall be t

volume of rain = surface area x depth

= 1.023 x 10¹¹ x t

So ,

1.023 x 10¹¹ x t  = 2.21 x 10¹¹

t = 2.16 inch

Lesechka [4]

Answer:4.21 \times 10^{-10} J/cm^4

1 kPa= 10^3 Pa

1 km=10^5 cm

1kPa/km=0.01 Pa/cm

1kPa/km=10^{-8} J/cm^4

\Rightarrow r= 0.0421 kPa/km= 0.0421 kPa/km \times \frac{10^{-8} J/cm^4}{1 kPa/km}= 0.0421 \times 10^{-8}J/cm^4=4.21 \times 10^{-10} J/cm^4

A box slides down a frictionless incline, gaining speed. The work done by the normal force n is _______.
jeka57 [31]

The work done by the normal force n when the box slides down a frictionless incline and gaining speed is zero.

<h3>What is normal force?</h3>

The force of contact is called the normal force. When the two surfaces are in contact with each other, then the normal force acts.

This force is applied by the solid bodies on each other in order to prevent the passing through each other.

A box slides down a frictionless incline, gaining speed. For this box, the value of work done by normal force has to be found out. Let's analyze the given condition.

  • The body is gaining the speed, which means there is a change in kinetic energy.
  • The change in kinetic energy is equal to the work done.
  • The friction force is the product of coefficient of the friction and normal force.
  • The friction force for the given case is zero. Thus, the normal force must be equal to the zero.

Thus, the work done by the normal force n when the box slides down a frictionless incline and gaining speed is zero.

-A 180 kg hippo is riding a bicycle at a speed of 6.0
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

0.0675 seconds

Explanation:

From the question,

We apply newton's second law of motion

F = m(v-u)/t.................... Equation 1

Where F = force exert by the brake, v = final speed, u = initial speed m = mass of the bicycle, t = time.

make t the subject of the equation

t = m(v-u)/F................... Equation 2

Given: m = 180 kg, u = 6.0 m/s, v = 0 m/s (comes to stop), F = -1600 N ( agianst the dirction of motion)

Substitute these value into equation 2

t = 180(0-6.0)/-1600

t = -1080/-1600

t = 0.0675 seconds.
