Destiny is eating lunch at her favorite cafe when her friend Jada calls and says she wants to meet her. Jada is calling from a c

ity 45 miles away and wants to meet Destiny somewhere between the two locations. Jada says she will start driving right away, but Destiny needs 10 min to finish her lunch before she can begin driving. Jada plans to drive at 55 mph, whereas Destiny usually averages about 70 mph. Ignore acceleration and assume the highway is a straight line.
Required:
a. How many minutes from will Jada be driving before she meets Destiny?
b. How many miles d will Destiny have traveled when they meet?
Physics

Answer:

Explanation:

Let time taken by Jada in driving be t hour .

distance travelled by jada = 55 t

a )

Time of drive by destiny = t - 10 min

= t - .167 hour

distance of travel by destiny = 70 ( t - .167 )

Total distance = 45 miles

55 t + 70 ( t - .167 ) = 45

55t + 70 t - 11.69 = 45

125 t = 56.69

t = .453 hour = 27.21 minutes

b )

distance travelled by Destiny = 70 ( t - .167 )

70 ( .453 - .167 )

= 20.02 miles .

A student uses 150 N to push a block of wood up a ramp at constant velocity of 2.6m/s. What is his power output?
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

P= 390 W

Explanation:

In physics, power is the rate of doing work or of transferring heat, i.e. the amount of energy transferred or converted per unit time.  Work  is a force F applied over a distance x. Matemathicaly it means

P = dW/dt ≈ d(F * x)/dt = xdF/dt + Fdx/dt. If force is constant dF/dt=0 so P=F dx/dt = P*v, where v is velocity, the rate of distance per unit time.

We have force and velocity. Newton is unit of Kg*m/s2, hence

P= 150 kgm/s2 * 2.6 m/s =390 Kgm2/s3 = 390 W, where W is Watts and is an unit of power

You are moving at a speed 2/3 c toward randy when randy shines a light toward you. at what speed do you see the light approachin
yarga [219]
I see the light moving exactly at speed equal to c.

In fact, the second postulate of special relativity states that:
"The speed of light in free space has the same value c<span> in all inertial frames of reference."
</span>
The problem says that I am moving at speed 2/3 c, so my motion is a uniform motion (constant speed). This means I am in an inertial frame of reference, so the speed of light in this frame must be equal to c.

kodGreya [7K]
I honestly don't see anything above. But 'H' on a weather map usually shows the center of a high-pressure system.
