Greyhound pursues a hare and takes 5 leaps for every 6 leaps of the hare, but
1 answer:
★ 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.
★ The speed of the hound and the hare
★ The speed of the hound and the hare = 25:18
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

Answer:
True
Explanation:
Pressure is defined as:
where
F is the magnitude of the force perpendicular to the surface
A is the surface
Therefore, pressure is inversely proportional to the area of the surface:
this means that, assuming that the forces in the two situations (which have same magnitude) are both applied perpendicular to the surface, the force exerted over the smaller area will exert a greater pressure. Hence, the statement"
<em>"A force acting over a large area will exert less pressure per square inch than the same force acting over a smaller area"</em>
is true.
