Answer:

60.3375 m/ per sec

Explanation:

first multiply 1609 (the amount of meters in a mile) by 135( the total number of miles). this brings you to conclude there are a total of 217,215 meters in 135 miles.

So 135 mph = 217,215 meters per hour.

From here I took a simple route so as to not need a calculator.

217,215 meters = 60mins. (divide both sides by 2)

108,607.5 = 30mins. (divide both sides by 2)

54,303.75 = 15mins. (divide both sides by 15)

3620.25 = 1min

3620.25 = 60secs. (divide both sides by 60)

60.3375 = 1sec

60.3375 meters per second = 135miles per hr.

A rope of total mass m hnd length L is suspended vertically with an object of mass M suspended from the lower end. Find an expre

pantera1 [17]

Answer:

Part a)

$v = \sqrt{xg + \frac{MLg}{m}}$

Part b)

t = 12 s

Explanation:

Part a)

Tension in the rope at a distance x from the lower end is given as

$T = \frac{m}{L}xg + Mg$

so the speed of the wave at that position is given as

$v = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}$

here we know that

$\mu = \frac{m}{L}$

now we have

$v = \sqrt{\frac{ \frac{m}{L}xg + Mg}{m/L}$

$v = \sqrt{xg + \frac{MLg}{m}}$

Part b)

time taken by the wave to reach the top is given as

$t = \int \frac{dx}{\sqrt{xg + \frac{MLg}{m}}}$

$t = \frac{1}{g}(2\sqrt{xg + \frac{MLg}{m}})$

$t = \frac{2}{9.8}(\sqrt{(39.2\times 9.8) + \frac{8(39.2)(9.8)}{1}})$

$t = 12 s$

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

Measuring, comparing and estimating liquid volumes are taught using metric units like liters and milliliters and customary units like quart, pints, gallons and more. Capacity is actually the amount of liquid in the container, which is also the volume of a liquid.

zzz [600]

Answer:

Continental drift theory describes the long term effect of plate tectonics.

Explanation:

The long term result of plate tectonic movement is the continental drift. The continents of Earth lay on tectonic plates, that are in motion and interaction via plate tectonics. The drift of the Earths continent is an ongoing process evident in the rift valleys and seafloor spreading zones.

The theory that the Earth's continents are dynamic and have drifted relative to each other is known as continental drift which correlates with the theory of plate tectonics.

Every year, the Earth's outer shell plates are displaced by a small amount due to the heat coming from the Earths interior via convection currents.
