Answer:
6 feets
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangle described in the question has been sketched in the picture attached below :
From the triangle, we could solve for X, which is the base of the triangle using trigonometry :
Sinθ = opposite / hypotenus
Sin 30° = x / 12
0.5 = x / 12
x = 12 * 0.5
x = 6 feets
Hence base, x = 6 feets
Answer:
t_a = 7 s
t_w = 5 s
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
- The average speed in air v_a = 16 m/s
- The average speed in water v_w = 3 m/s
- The total distance D = 127 m
- The total time T = 12 s
Find:
How long did the stone fall in air and how long did it fall in the water?
Solution:
- Lets time taken by stone to drop through air as t_a = t_a.
- The time taken in water would be t_w = (12 - t_a)
- The total distance covered can be calculated as:
D = v_a*t_a+ v_w*(12 - t_a)
127 = 16*t_a + 3*(12 - t_a)
Simplify and solve for t:
91 = 16*t_a - 3t_a
13*t_a = 91
t_a = 7 s
t_w = 5 s
Answer:
Option 2
Step-by-step explanation:
A cube with 1/2 * 1* 1 will have a volume of 0.5 cubic cm
While a unit cube has a volume of 1 cubic cm
So,
2 cubes of these dimensions can fit into a unit cube.

Find the duration
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Time : 9:00am to 10:15am
Duration: 1hour 15 mins or 1.25hours
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find difference in distance travelled between the two cyclists.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Difference in speed = 6km/h
1 hour = 6 km
1.25 hours = 7.5km
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find the distance the cyclist traveled
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
42.5 - 7.5 = 35km
35km ÷ 2 = 17.5km
The slower cyclist traveled 17.5 km in the 1.25 hours
17.5 + 7.5 = 25 km
The faster cyclist traveled 25km in the 1.25 hours
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find the speed of the slower cyclist
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.25 hour = 17.5 km
1 hour = 17.25 ÷ 1.25
1 hour = 14km
The cyclist was traveling at 14km/h
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find the speed of the faster cyclist
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.25 hour = 25km
1 hour = 25 ÷ 1.25
1hour = 20 km
The cyclist was traveling at 20km/hour
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: The speed were 14km/h and 20 km/h
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
