Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 12 \ m/s}}$

Explanation:

Speed is equal to distance divided by time.

$s=\frac{d}{t}$

The horse ran 1500 meters in 125 seconds.

$d= 1500 \ m \\s= 125 \ s$

Substitue the values into the formula.

$s= \frac{ 1500 \ m }{125 \ s}$

Divide.

$s= 12 \ m/s$

The speed of the race horse is 12 meters per second.

A stone is thrown vertically upward at a speed of 41.50 m/s at time t=0. A second stone is thrown upward with the same speed 3.0

lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

t1 = t2 + 3.02 V = 41.5

V t1 - 1/2 g t1^2 = V t2 - 1/2 g t2^2

Both stones reach the same height after the specified times

V (t1 - t2) = g/2 (t1^2 - t2^2) = g/2 (t1 - t2) (t1 + t2)

2 V / g = t1 + t2 = 2t1 + 3.02

t1 = V / g - 1.51 = 41.5 / 9.8 -1.51 = 2.72 s

t2 = t1 + 3.02 = 5.74 sec

Check:

41.5 * 2.72 - 4.9 * 2.72^2 = 76.6 m

41.5 * 5.74 - 4.9 * 5.74^2 = 76.8 m

Speed of second stone = 41.5 - 9.8 * 2.72 = 14.8 m/s

A box-shaped metal can has dimensions 5 in. by 19 in. by 4 in. high. All of the air inside the can is removed with a vacuum pump

GuDViN [60]

Answer:

The force is $F = 1397 lb$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The length of the box is $l = 19 \ in$

The width of the box is $w = 5 \ in$

The height is $h = 4\ in$

The pressure experience on one of the sides is mathematically represented as

$p = \frac{F}{A}$

Where A is the area of the box which is mathematically evaluated as

$A = l * w$

substituting values

$A = 5 *19$

$A = 95 \ in^2$

This pressure is equivalent to the atmospheric pressure which has a constant value of $p = 14.7 pi$

This implies that

$14.7 = \frac{F}{95}$

=> $F = 14.7 *95$

=> $F = 1397 lb$

Which wavelength of light is capable of penetrating the dust of a nebula?

ivann1987 [24]

When the dust is too thick to penetrate with visible light, such as the Nebula, Radio Waves are used to penetrate the dust. Longer radio waves can completely penetrate the thick cloud cover, allowing scientists to beam radar waves.
