An airplane travels 800 miles with the wind in the same of time it takes to travel 650 miles against the wind. What is the speed
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

90 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Against wind DATA:

distance = 600 miles ; time = 5 hrs. ; rate = 600/5 = 120 mph

With wind DATA:

distance = 600 miles ; time = 2 hrs ; rate = 600/2 = 300 mph

Equations:

p + w = 300

p - w = 120

2p = 420

p = 210 mph (speed of the plane in still air)

Since p+w = 300, w = 300-210 = 90 mph (speed of the wind)

A water molecule is made up of 3 atoms. One third of the atoms are oxygen and the remaining atoms are hydrogen. If there are 114
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

228 hydrogen atoms

Step-by-step explanation:

In a water molecule,

1/3rd is oxygen atoms, and

2/3rd (1 - 1/3 = 2/3) is hydrogen atoms

If there are 114 water molecules,

Total number of atoms would be:

3 * 114 = 342 (1 oxygen and 2 hydrogen atoms in 1 water molecule)

Out of these, 2/3rd would be hydrogen atoms, so:

\frac{2}{3}*342=228

There would be 228 hydrogen atoms
