Answer:

The answer is:

VA= 33 m/S

VB= 27.8 m/s

VC= 50 m/s

VD=66.7 m/s

VE=35.7 m/s

So, the Legs from the highest velocity to the lower are:

D - C - E - A - B

The explanation:

we are going to use the velocity formula:

Velocity = distance (m) / time (s)

So,

A) when D = 18 Km = 18000 m

and t = 9 min = 9*60 =540 s

So V = 18000m/ 540 S

      = 33 m/S

B) when D = 25 Km = 25000 m

and t = 15 min = 15 * 60 = 900 S

So V = 25000m / 900S

     = 27.8 m/s

C) when D = 24 Km = 24000 m

and t = 8 min = 8 * 60 = 480 s

So V = 24000m / 480s

     = 50 m/s

D) when D = 48 Km = 48000 m

and t = 12 min = 12 * 60 = 720 s

So V = 48000 m / 720s

       =66.7 m/s

E) when D = 15 km = 15000m

and t = 7 min = 7 * 60 = 420 s

So V = 15000m / 420s

      = 35.7 m/s

Heat rises, and it is warmer at the equator, so I think warm air would rise at the equator and move towards the cooler poles.

The small piston of a hydraulic lift has a cross-sectional of 3 00 cm2 and its large piston has a cross-sectional area of 200 cm
Nesterboy [21]

Q: The small piston of a hydraulic lift has a cross-sectional of 3.00 cm2 and its large piston has a cross-sectional area of 200 cm2. What downward force of magnitude must be applied to the small piston for the lift to raise a load whose weight is Fg = 15.0 kN?

Answer:

225 N

Explanation:

From Pascal's principle,

F/A = f/a ...................... Equation 1

Where F = Force exerted on the larger piston, f = force applied to the smaller piston, A = cross sectional area of the larger piston, a = cross sectional area of the smaller piston.

Making f the subject of the equation,

f = F(a)/A ..................... Equation 2

Given: F = 15.0 kN = 15000 N, A = 200 cm², a = 3.00 cm².

Substituting into equation 2

f = 15000(3/200)

f = 225 N.

Hence the downward force that must be applied to small piston = 225 N

An object is moving in a circle. If the radius of the object is doubled, and the period remains constant, the magnitude of the v
Anton [14]

Answer:

Twice

Explanation:

From the formula for velocity in a circle

V= 2πr/T

Where V is velocity

r is raduis

T is period

We see that as r increases V increases so if r is doubled V becomes doubled

Simon is riding a bike at 12 km/h away from his friend Keesha.He throws a ball at 5 km/h back to Keesha, who is standing still o
Tems11 [23]

I notice that even though we're working with frames of reference
here, you never said which frame the '5 km/hr' is measured in.

In fact !  You didn't even say which frame the '12 km/hr' of his
bike is measured in.

So there are several different ways this could go.  I'll do it the way
I THINK you meant it, but that doesn't guarantee anything.

-- Simon is riding his bike at 12 km/hr relative to the sidewalk,
away from Keesha.

-- He throws a ball at Keesha, at 5 km/hr relative to his own face.

-- Keesha sees the ball approaching her at (12 - 5) = 7 km/hr
relative to the ground and to her.
