The traveling speed of each ship is :

  • Ship A = 24 mph
  • Ship A = 24 mphShip B = 26 mph

Distance apart at 12:00 noon = 176 miles

Recall :

Distance = speed × time

Ship A :

Departure time = 9AM

Speed = s

Travel time = 12 - 9 = 3 hrs

Distance covered = 3 × s = 3s

Ship B :

Departure time = 8AM

Speed = 2+s

Travel time = 12 - 8 = 4 hours

Distance = 2+s(4) = 8 + 4s

Distance apart = 3s + (8 + 4s)

176 = 3s + 8 + 4s

176 = 7s + 8

176 - 8 = 7s

168 = 7s

s = 168 / 7

s = 24

Ship A speed = s = 24mph

Ship B speed = s + 2 = 26 mph

Estimate the time it would take you to drive 361 miles at 42 miles per hour. Round to the nearest hour.
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

It would take you 9 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed (s) = Distance (d) / Time (t)

given that; Speed = 42 miles/hour

                 Distance = 361 miles

42 miles/hour = 361 miles / Time (t)

Time (t) * 42 miles/hour = 361 miles

Time (t) = 361 miles / 42 miles/hour

Time (t) = 8.59 hours

             ≈ 9 hours (to the nearest hour)

(b) Use the right-hand rule to decide whether the components of a × b are positive, negative, or 0.
Gekata [30.6K]

(a)

Given:  

\vec{a} is in xy plane and \vec{b} is in the direction of k.

|a|=6 units, |b|=3 and θ = 90°

|a × b| = |a| × |b| sinθ  

          = |a| × |b| sin90°  

          = 6 × 3 × 1  

|a × b| = 18  

(b)

Let \vec{c}=\vec{a} \times \vec{b}

\vec{c} is perpendicular to both \vec{a} \text { and } \vec{b}.

In this case,

x-component of \vec{a} \times \vec{b} is positive.

y-component of \vec{a} \times \vec{b} is negative.

z-component of \vec{a} \times \vec{b} is zero.
