Answer:
B meet A 0.01 km east of flagpole
Explanation:
given data
distance A = 5.7 km west
velocity V1 = 8.9 km/h
distance B = 4.5 km east
velocity V2 = 7 km/h
to find out
How far runners from the flagpole, when paths cross
solution
we know A and B are 5.7 + 4.5 = 10.2 km apart
and we consider here B will run distance x km for meet
so time will be for B is
time B = distance / velocity
time B = x / 7 ...................1
and
for A distance for meet = ( 10.2 - x ) km
so time A = distance / velocity
time A = ( 10.2 - x ) / 8.9 .............2
now equating equation 1 and 2
time A = time B
x / 7 = ( 10.2 - x ) / 8.9
x = 4.490
so distance of B run for meet is 4.490 km
so distance from the flagpole when their paths cross is 4.5 - 4.490 = 0.01 km
so B meet A 0.01 km east of flagpole
Can something have energy even if it's not moving?
All moving objects have kinetic energy. When an object is in motion, it changes its position by moving in a direction: up, down, forward, or backward. ... Potential energy is stored energy. Even when an object is sitting still, it has energy stored inside that can be turned into kinetic energy (motion).
Does a book at rest have energy?
A World Civilization book at rest on the top shelf of a locker possesses mechanical energy due to its vertical position above the ground (gravitational potential energy).
Does a book lying on a table have energy?
The book lying on a desk has potential energy; the book falling off a desk has kinetic energy.
I think its all four of them could be wrong but try all four !!!!!!
