★ The speed of the hound and the hare = 25:18

${\large{\bold{\rm{\underline{Full \; Solution}}}}}$

$\dashrightarrow$ As it's given that a grey hound pursues a hare and takes 5 leaps for every 6 leaps of the hare, but 3 leaps of the hound are equal to 5 leaps of the hare.

So firstly let us assume a metres as the distance covered by the hare in one leap.

Ok now let's talk about 5 leaps,.! As it's cleared that the hare cover the distance of 5a metres.

But 3 leaps of the hound are equal to 5 leaps of the hare.

Henceforth, (5/3)a meters is the distance that is covered by the hound.

Now according to the question,

Hound pursues a hare and takes 5 leaps for every 6 leaps of the hare..! (Same interval)

Now the distance travelled by the hound in it's 5 leaps..!

(5/3)a × 5

25/3a metres

Now the distance travelled by the hare in it's 6 leaps..!

6a metres

Now let us compare the speed of the hound and the hare. Let us calculate them in the form of ratio..!

25/3a = 6a

25/3 = 6

25:18

A spring has a equilibrium length of 10.0 cm. When a force of 40.0 N is applied to the spring, the spring has a length of 14.0 c

mote1985 [20]

Answer:

The value of the spring constant of this spring is 1000 N/m

Explanation:

Given;

equilibrium length of the spring, L = 10.0 cm

new length of the spring, L₀ = 14 cm

applied force on the spring, F = 40 N

extension of the spring due to applied force, e = L₀ - L = 14 cm - 10 cm = 4 cm

From Hook's law

Force applied to a spring is directly proportional to the extension produced, provided the elastic limit is not exceeded.

F ∝ e

F = ke

where;

k is the spring constant

k = F / e

k = 40 / 0.04

k = 1000 N/m

Therefore, the value of the spring constant of this spring is 1000 N/m

Que hace falta para descubrir hasta que punto todas y todos somos diferentes y ver que eso, más bien es valioso y positivo

lara [203]

Answer:

Para descubrir que las diferencias entre las personas son valiosas y positivas para la creación de sociedades más diversas y enriquecidas culturalmente, es necesario valorar las condiciones personales de cada persona de modo positivo, abandonando posturas discriminatorias como el racismo o la xenofobia, para así aceptar la diversidad social. Además, debe fomentarse el respeto por la opinión y la visión del otro, para que las personas no tomen al que piensa diferente como un adversario al que hay que confrontar. Solo así podrá lograrse una sociedad más diversa y respetuosa de las diferencias, sean culturales, étnicas o intelectuales.

If the speed of light in a substance is 2.26 x 10^8 m/s, what is the index of refraction of that substance?

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

1.33

Explanation:

speed of light in vacuum, c = 3 x 10^8 m/s

speed of light in medium, v = 2.26 x 10^8 m/s

The refractive index of the medium is given by

μ = speed of light in vacuum / speed of light in medium

μ = (3 x 10^8) / (2.26 x 10^8)

μ = 1.33

Calculate the magnitude of electric field strength at a point 3cm from an infinite line of charge of linear density 18 μC/cm sit

valina [46]

Answer:

The magnitude of the electric field strength = 7.2 x 10⁸ N/C

Explanation:

The linear density:

$\begin{gathered} \lambda=18\mu C\text{ /cm} \\ \\ \lambda=\frac{18*10^{-6}C}{0.01m} \\ \\ \lambda=0.0018\text{ C/m} \end{gathered}$

Point r = 3 cm = 3/100 m

r = 0.03 m

The electric field strength is calculated below

$\begin{gathered} E=\frac{\lambda}{2\pi\epsilon_o\epsilon_rr} \\ \\ E=\frac{0.0018}{2\times3.14\times8.85\times10^{-12}\times1.5\times0.03} \\ \\ E=719709237.468\text{ N/C} \\ \\ E=7.2\times10^8\text{ N/C} \\ \end{gathered}$

The magnitude of the electric field strength = 7.2 x 10⁸ N/C
