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

An object weighing 49 N is pushed across a floor by a force of 12 N. What is the acceleration of the object?
NISA [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Weight of object  = 49N

Force applied = 12N

Unknown:

Acceleration of object  = ?

Solution:

The acceleration of the object is found by dividing the force by the weight;

 Acceleration  = \frac{12}{49}   = 0.25m/s²

Water (density = 1 ´ 103 kg/m3) flows at 10 m/s through a pipe with radius 0.030 m. the pipe goes up to the second floor of the
Hatshy [7]

density of water = 1000 kg/m^3

velocity of flow = 10 m/s

radius of pipe = 0.030 m

Height of second floor = 2 m

Now we can use here Bernuoli's Equation to find the speed of water flow at second floor

P_1 + 1/2\rho v_1^2 + \rho g h_1= P_2 + 1/2 \rho v_2^2 + \rho g h_2

P + 1/2 * 1000 * 10^2 + 1000* 9.8 * 0 = P + 1/2 * 1000 * v^2 + 1000*9.8*2

v = 7.8 m/s

Now in order to find the radius of pipe we can use equation of continuity

A_1 v_1 = A_2 v_2

\pi *0.030^2 * 10 = \pi * r^2 * 7.8

r = 0.034 m

So radius of pipe at second floor is 0.034 meter

when an object is moving there is always a force pulling it in the direction of its motion?true or false? explain
pickupchik [31]
This is false because an object can also be pushed by force and isn't always have to be pulled by a force.
