An ant is crawling along a yardstick that is pointed with the 0-inch mark to the east and the 36-inch mark to the west. It start

s at the 6-inch mark, crawls to the 19-inch mark, then moves to the 7-inch mark. What was the total distance the ant traveled?

Answer:

it moves 25 inches.

Explanation:

the east west bit isn't important, ignore it. if an ant starts at 6 then moves to 19 then we need to subtract 19 from 6, that's 13. then it moves to 7. the difference between 19 and 7 is 12. add that to 13 and you get 25. it's important to remember that there is no such thing as negative distance. if it moved, then it counts.

What is crossing-over in geneitcs and why is it important
slava [35]

The world’s largest wind turbine has blades that are 80 m long and makes 1 revolution every 5.7 seconds. What is the velocity fo
klemol [59]

Answer:

The free end of the blade has a tangential velocity of about 88.19 m/s

Explanation:

The angular velocity of the blades is  2 \pi /5.7\,\,rad/sec

since the blades are 80 m long, then the tangential velocity of the free end of the blade is:

v_{tan} \approx 88.19\,\,m/s

An airplane has wings, each with area A, designed so that air flows over the top of the wing at 265 m/s and underneath the wing
exis [7]

Answer

given,

Pressure on the top wing = 265 m/s

speed of underneath wings = 234 m/s

mass of the airplane =  7.2 × 10³ kg

density of air =  1.29 kg/m³

using Bernoulli's equation

 P_1 + \dfrac{1}{2}\rho v_1^2 = P_2 + \dfrac{1}{2}\rho v_2^2

 \Delta P =\dfrac{1}{2}\rho (v_2^2-v_1^2)

 \Delta P =\dfrac{1}{2}\times 1.29\times (265^2-234^2)

 \Delta P =9977.5 Pa

Applying newtons second law

2 Δ P x A - mg = 0

A =\dfrac{mg}{2\Delta P}

A =\dfrac{7.2\times 10^3 \times 9.8}{2\times 9977.5}

    A = 3.53 m²
