Answer:

t = 11.9 h = 0.49 day

Explanation:

First of all, we will find the area covered by the mower per unit time:

Rate\ of\ Area\ Covered\ by\ Mower = vw

where,

v = speed of mower = 1 km/h = 1000 m/h

w = width of mower = 0.6 m

Therefore,

Rate\ of\ Area\ Covered\ by\ Mower = (1000\ m/h)(0.6\ m)\\Rate\ of\ Area\ Covered\ by\ Mower = 600\ m^{2}/h

Now, the standard football ground has an area of:

A = 105 m x 68 m = 7140 m²

Therefore, The time required to mow the lawn will be:

Time\ to\ Mow\ the\ Lawn = t = \frac{A}{Rate\ of\ Area\ Covered\ by\ Mower}\\t = \frac{7140\ m^{2}}{600\ m^{2}/h}

<u>t = 11.9 h = 0.49 day</u>

olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

Without this slack, a locomotive might simply sit still and spin its wheels. The loose coupling enables a longer time for the entire train to gain momentum, requiring less force of the locomotive wheels against the track. In this way, the overall required impulse is broken into a series of smaller impulses. (This loose coupling can be very important for braking as well).

If a weight hanging on a string of length 5 feet swings through 5^\circ on either side of the vertical, how long is the arc thro
Zielflug [23.3K]
<span>First we can find the circumference of the whole circle with a radius of 5 feet. circumference = 2 pi radius circumference = (2 pi) (5 feet) circumference = (10 pi) feet From one high point to the other high point, the string moves through an angle of 10 degrees. Since a full circle is 360 degrees, this angle is 1/36 of a full circle. Therefore, the arc length is 1/36 of the whole circumference. arc length = (1/36) (circumference) arc length = (1/36) (10 pi) feet arc length = 0.873 feet</span>
