To solve this exercise, the following speed equation must be applied:

 V = d / t (mi/hr)

 V: speed (mi/hr)

 d: distance (mi)

 t: time (s)

We know the distance (d= 5 miles) and the time (t= 0.2 hours), so we proceed to replace these values in the formula to calculate the lion’s speed:

 V = d / t

 V = 5 mi/0.2 hr

 V = 25 mi/hr

 The lion’s speed is 25 mi/hr, so the last option is the right answer

Which of the following best describes what alveolar are
Zolol [24]
Alveoli are tiny balloon shaped structures and are the smallest passageway in the respiratory system. The alveoli are only one cell thick, allowing the relatively easy passage of oxygen and carbon dioxide (CO2) between the alveoli and blood vessels called capillaries.

A space station in the shape of a 100 m-diameter (50m radius) wheel is spinning so as to impart a linear tangential speed of 22.
zalisa [80]

Answer:

correct option is b. 31.3 m/s

Explanation:

given data

artificial gravity a1 = 1 g

artificial gravity a2 = 2 g

diameter = 100 m

radius  r= 50 m

speed v1 = 22.1 m/s

solution

As acceleration is  ∝ v²

so we can say

\frac{a2}{a1} = \frac{v2}{v1}    .....................1

put here value

\frac{2}{1} = \frac{v2}{22.1}  

solve it

v2 = \sqrt{2 } × 22.1

v2 = 31.25 m/s

so correct option is b. 31.3 m/s

A box with a mass of 12.5kg sits on the floor how high would you need to lift it has a GPE of 568j
Degger [83]
GPE=mgh
m= 12.5kg
g= 9.81 always
h=?

568=12.5*9.81*h
Solve for h
You will get 4.63m

Two motorcycles are traveling in opposite directions at the same speed when one of the cyclists blasts her horn, which has frequ
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

6ms^-1

Explanation:

Given that the frequency difference is

( 563- 544) = 19

So alsoThe wavelength of each wave is = v/f = 344 /544

and there are 19 of this waves

So it is assumed that each motorcycle has moved 0.5 of this distance

in one second thus the speed of the motorcycles will be

=> 19/2 x 344/544 = 6.0 m/s

5. Each of five satellites makes a circular orbit about an object that is much more massive than any of the satellites. The mass
Vikentia [17]

The options of the question are missing. I have attached it.

Answer:

Satellite in option B will have the greatest speed.

Explanation:

From kepplers third law, we know that

V² = GM/R

Thus, v = √(GM/R)

Where;

v is velocity

G is gravitational constant

M is mass

R is radius

Looking at the options, let's start from the first one;

Option A

Here, mass = (1/2)m and radius = R

So, v = √(GM/R) thus v = √(G(m/2)/R) = √(Gm/2R)

Option B

Here, mass = m and radius = (1/2)R

Thus v = √(Gm/(R/2)) = √(2Gm/R)

Option C

Here, mass = m and radius = R

Thus v = √(Gm/R)

Option D

Here, mass = m and radius = 2R

Thus v = √(Gm/(2R))

Now, inspecting all the options, it's clear that option B will have the greatest velocity because it's numerator is the biggest and will in turn lead to higher velocity.
