Answer:

Mandaloun won the race.

Explanation:

First, we will calculate the time taken by the Hot Rod Charlie:

s = vt\\t = \frac{s}{v}

where,

t = time taken by Hot Rod Charlie = ?

s = distance covered = 1.25 miles

v = speed of Hot Rod Charlie = 0.79 miles/min

Therefore,

t = \frac{1.25\ miles}{0.79\ miles/min} \\t = 1.58 min

Since Hot Rod Charlie took more time (1.58 min) than the Mandaloun (1.52 min).

<u>Therefore Mandaloun won the race.</u>

How would you describe the appearance of the substance after the phase change?
Leona [35]

Answer:

Substances can change phase—often because of a temperature change. At low temperatures, most substances are solid; as the temperature increases, they become liquid; at higher temperatures still, they become gaseous. The process of a solid becoming a liquid is called melting.
