Answer:

39 miles

Explanation:

we will make your house to be the central point in the four cardinal points.

Please follow the diagram on the attachment to get the movement clearly.

First, you move to a dry cleaners 12miles east of your house, and then to a grocery store 15miles west of your house.

This means you must have moved back to your house before going to the grocery which is 15miles west of your house.

so to and fro from your house to dry cleaners = 12*2 = 24 miles.

Then the total distance you cover will be = 24 +15 = 39 miles

Richard is driving home to visit his parents. 135 mi of the trip are on the interstate highway where the speed limit is 65 mph .
Elis [28]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

He saves 13.2 minutes

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Hey! The question is incomplete, but it can be found on the internet. The question is:

How many minutes did he save?

Let's call:

t_{1}:Time \ at \ speed \ 65mph \\ \\ t_{2}:Time \ at \ speed \ 73mph \\ \\ v_{1}=65mph \\ \\ v_{2}=73mph

We know that the 135 miles are on the interstate highway where the speed limit is 65 mph. From this, we can calculate the time it takes to drive on this highway. Assuming Richard maintains constant the speed:

v=\frac{d}{t} \\ \\ d:distance \\ \\ t:time \\ \\ v:velocity \\ \\ t_{1}=\frac{d}{v_{1}} \\ \\ t=\frac{135}{65} \\ \\ t_{1}=2.07 \ hours

Today he is running late and decides to take his chances by driving at 73 mph, so the new time it takes to take the trip is:

t_{2}=\frac{135}{73} \\ \\ t_{2}=1.85 \ hours

So he saves the time t_{s}:

t_{s}=t_{1}-t_{2}=2.07-1.85=0.22 \ hours

In minutes:

t_{s}=0.22h\left(\frac{60min}{1h}\right) \\ \\ \boxed{t_{s}=13.2min}

What is the voltage in a circuit that has a current of 10.0 amps and a resistance of 28.5 ohms?
patriot [66]
<span>Ohm's law deals with the relation between voltage and current in an ideal conductor. It states that: Potential difference across a conductor is proportional to the current that pass through it. It is expressed as V=IR.

V = 10.0 A (28.5 ohms) = 285 V </span>

The projectile launcher shown below will give the object on the right an initial horizontal speed of 5.9 m/s. While the other ob
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

104.3 cm  or 179.7

Explanation:

First find time that it takes for the object to hit the ground

\sqrt{(2H)/g}  ->   \sqrt{(2 x 179)/ 9.8} = 6.04s\\*

Then find xf of projectile xf= 5.9(6.04) = 37.7\\\\

not 100% sure if the projectile is going away from the object or towards it but you either do 142- 37.7   or    142+37.7  

hope that helps

fredd [130]

Answer:

The answer is "Including all three studies of 0s to 2s, that shift in momentum is equal".

Explanation:

Its shift in momentum doesn't really depend on the magnitude of its cars since the forces or time are similar throughout all vehicles.

Let's look at the speed of the car

F = m a\\\\a =\frac{F}{m}

We use movies and find lips

\to v = v_0 + a t\\\\\to v = v_0 + (\frac{F}{m}) t

The moment is defined by

\to p = m v

The moment change

\Delta p = m v - m v_0

Let's replace the speeds in this equation

\Delta p = m (v_0 + \frac{F}{m t}) - m v_0\\\\\Delta p = m v_0  + F t - m v_0\\\\\Delta p = F t

They see that shift is not directly proportional to the mass of cars since the force and time were the same across all cars.
