A cheetah can run at approximately 100 km/hr and a gazelle at 80 km/hr. If both animals are running at full speed, with a gazell

zimovet [89]

The cheetah's speed is 100x and The gazelle's speed is 80x + 70. Set the two equations equal to each other: 100x = 80x +70 (then subtract 80x from both sides). 20x = 70 (then divide by 20). X =3.5. The cheetah catches the gazelle after 3.5

The atmosphere of Jupiter is essentially made up of hydrogen, H2. For H2, the specific gas constant is 4157 J/(kg K). The accele

Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

h=17357.9m

Explanation:

The atmospheric pressure is just related to the weight of an arbitrary column of gas in the atmosphere above a given area. So, if you are higher in the atmosphere less gass will be over you, which means you are bearing less gas and the pressure is less.

To calculate this, you need to use the barometric formula:

$P=P_0e^{-\frac{Mg}{RT}h}$

Where R is the gas constant, M the molar mass of the gas, g the acceleration of gravity, T the temperature and h the height.

Furthermore, the specific gas constant is defined by:

$R_{H_2}=\frac{R}{M}$

Therefore yo can write the barometric formula as:

$P=P_0e^{-\frac{g}{R_{H_2}T}h}$

at the surface of the planet (h =0) the pressure is $P_0[\tex]. The pressure at the height requested is half of that:[tex]P=\frac{P_0}{2}$

applying to the previuos equation:

$\frac{P_0}{2} =P_0e^{-\frac{g}{R_{H_2}T}h}$

solving for h:

h=17357.9m

Ship A is 32 miles north of ship B and is sailing due south at 16 mph. Ship B is sailing due east at 12 mph. At what rate is the

Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

$\dfrac{dz}{dt} =-5.6\ mile/h$

Explanation:

distance between ship A and B = 32 mile

Ship A velocity in south, dx/dt = -16 mph

Ship B is sailing toward east with speed, dy/st = 12 mph

time = 1 hour

rate of change of distance between them = ?

x be the distance travel after t time

X = 32 + x

Let distance between them be z

now, using Pythagoras theorem to calculate distance between ships after 1 hours

z² = x² + y²

z² = (32 + x)² + 12²

z² = (32 - 16)² + 12²

z = √400

z = 20 miles

now, calculation of rate of change of distnace

z² = (32 + x)² + y²

differentiating both side w.r.t. time

$2 z \dfrac{dz}{dt} = 2(32+x)\dfrac{dx}{dt} + 2 y\dfrac{dy}{dt}$

$z \dfrac{dz}{dt} =(32-16)\dfrac{dx}{dt} +y\dfrac{dy}{dt}$

$20\times \dfrac{dz}{dt} =16\times (-16) +12\times 12$

$\dfrac{dz}{dt} =\dfrac{-112}{20}$

$\dfrac{dz}{dt} =-5.6\ mile/h$

hence, the rate is the distance between them changing at the end of 1 hour is equal to $\dfrac{dz}{dt} =-5.6\ mile/h$

What should a sailboat operator do when approaching a PWC head-on

nekit [7.7K]

In accordance with the International Regulation for the prevention of collisions at sea:

1.- A sailing boat has a passing preference over a motorized boat, except when the motor boat is limited by its draft.

2.- The sailboat must maintain its course and speed.

3.- If it is evident that the PWC does not respond, the sailboat must sound the warning signal, and change its course to starboard.

4.- All actions must be taken as soon as possible.

5.- If a sailboat is using its engine, the situation changes, and in that case, both ships must alter to starboard.
