A movie stunt double is supposed to run across the top of a train (in the opposite direction that the train is moving) and just

barely jump off before reaching a tunnel, but after running the entire length of the train (starting from the front). If the train is moving at 50 km/hr, is 3 km long and the tunnel is 40 km away from the end (where the stunt double is going to jump from), how fast (in km/hr) will the stunt double need to run

Answer:

3.49km/hr

Explanation:

This train is moving at 50km/hr

Distance = length of train + distance of tunnel

= 3 km + 40 km

= 43 km

Time taken by train to get to tunnel

Time = distance / velocity

Time = 43 km/50km perhour

= 0.86

How fast will stunt double have to run?

Velocity = 3km/0.86

= 3.49 km/hr

The stunt double will have to run as fast as 3.49 kilometer per hour

Which of the following statements about atoms is true?
anastassius [24]
<span>The atoms are grouped thus forming molecules. Each type of molecule is the combination of a certain number of atoms linked between them and in a specific way, whenever a molecule can contain atoms of different elements or of the same. And that in turn, Each atom retains its structural characteristics, beyond that they are part of different molecules because during the chemical reactions the atoms cannot be created or destroyed, but they are organized in a different way creating links between an atom and another.</span>

R: Law of Conservation of Energy Pre-Write
Bad White [126]

Answer:

V at C is 3.6 m/s

Explanation:

At A kinetic energy is zero and potential energy=mgh=0.5*9.81*0.6=2.943 J

By conservation of energy.

KE+PE=Constant

At C PE=0.6 J

the KE=2.943-0.6=2.343 J

KE=0.5*m*v^2

v=√[KE/(0.5*m)]=3.06 m/s

How do you work out Potential Difference??? <br> Please can you make it simple :) <br> Thanks.
patriot [66]

Answer:

Potential difference is the work done in moving a positive test charge from infinity to the point in question.

Voltage is an expression of PD.   (Joules / Coulomb)

Say that a capacitor has a PD of 5 Volts. The work in moving a positive test charge from the positive plate to the negative plate is -5 Joules/Coulomb or -5 volt. (At the positive plate the positive test charge (1 Coulomb) already has a PD of + 5 Volts.)
