Answer:

i. Cyclist A travelled 15 km 1 h cyclist A had started his journey from point X

  Cyclist B travelled 18 km 1 h cyclist A had started his journey from point X

ii. cyclist B overtake cyclist A 6 km from the same starting point X.

Explanation:

From the question,

- Cyclist A and B cycled at an average speed of 15 km/h and 20 km/h respectively.

- Cyclist B started his journey 6 mins after cyclist A had started.

Let the cyclist A time be t.

Then, we can write that

For Cyclist A

Speed = 15 km/h

Time = t mins

For Cyclist B

Speed = 20 km/h

Time = (t - 6) mins

i) To determine the distances travelled by cyclist A and B 1h cyclist A had started his journey,

For Cyclist A

Speed = 15km/h

Time = 1h = 60 mins

From the formula

Speed = Distance / Time

Then,

Distance = Speed × Time

Putting the values into the equation,

Distance = 15km/h × 1h

Distance = 15 km

∴ Cyclist A travelled 15 km 1 h cyclist A had started his journey from point X

For cyclist B

Speed = 20km/h

Time = 1h - 6mins = 60mins - 6mins = 54mins = 54/60 hour = 0.9 h

Also, from

Distance = Speed × Time

Putting the values into the equation

Distance = 20km/h × 0.9h

Distance = 18 km

∴ Cyclist B travelled 18 km 1 h cyclist A had started his journey from point X

ii) To determine the distance cyclist B overtake cyclist A, that is, when the distance covered by cyclist A equals that covered by cyclist B.

First, we will determine the time at which the distances covered by both cyclists were equal.

From

For Cyclist A

Speed = 15 km/h

Time = t hour  

Distance = Speed × Time

Distance = 15t km

For Cyclist B

Speed = 20 km/h

Time = (60t - 6) mins = (t - 0.1) hour

Distance = 20 × (t - 0.1) = (20t - 2) km

Equate the distances

15t = 20t - 2

15t - 20t = -2

-5t = -2

5t = 2

t = 2/5

t = 0.4 hour

Hence, cyclist B overtake cyclist A 0.4 hour after cyclist A had started.

For the distance cyclist B overtake cyclist A,

From

Distance = (20t - 2) km

Distance = (20×0.4 - 2) km

Distance = (8 - 2) km

Distance = 6 km

Hence, cyclist B overtake cyclist A 6km from the same starting point X.

irina [24]

Answer:

a = 15.1 g

Explanation:

The relation between mass and acceleration is given by :

m\propto \dfrac{1}{a}

If a₁ = 0.80g, m₁ = 1510 kg, m₂ = 80 kg, we need to find a₂

So,

\dfrac{m_1}{m_2}=\dfrac{a_2}{a_1}\\\\a_2=\dfrac{a_1m_1}{m_2}\\\\a_2=\dfrac{0.8g\times 1510}{80}\\\\a_2=15.1g

So, the car's acceleration would be 15.1 g.

Rzqust [24]
The compound is (Sulphuric Acid) H2SO4. On reacting with (Sodium Hydroxide) NaOH, it gives (2 Water Molecules/Colored) 2H2O and (1 Sodium Sulfate Molecule/Salt) Na2SO4

H2SO4 + NaOH —> 2H2O (aq.) + Na2SO4 (salt)

The resulted salt/compound (Na2SO4) when reacting with Methyl Orange (MO) is called ”Removal of methyl orange dye and Na2SO4 salt from synthetic wastewater using reverse osmosis (RO)”

The efficiency of reverse osmosis (RO) membranes used for treatment of colored water effluents can be affected by the presence of both salt and dyes.

Concentration polarization of each of the dye and the salt and the possibility of a dynamic membrane formed by the concentrated dye can affect the performance of the RO membrane.

The objective of the current work was to study the effect of varying the Na2SO4 salt and methyl orange (MO) dye concentrations on the performance of a spiral wound polyamide membrane.

The work also involved the development of a theoretical model based on the solution diffusion (SD) mass transport theory that takes into consideration a pressure dependent dynamic membrane resistance as well as both salt and dye concentration polarizations.

Control tests were performed using distilled water, dye/water and salt/water feeds to determine the parameters for the model.

The experimental results showed that increasing the dye concentration from 500 to 1000 ppm resulted in a decrease in the salt rejection at all of the operating pressures and for both feed salt concentrations of 5000 and 10,000 ppm.

Increasing the salt concentration from 5000 to 10,000 ppm resulted in a slight decrease in the percent dye removal. The model’s results agreed well with these general trends.
