Answer:

1.7 hours

Explanation:

Time taken in the journey = 3 hours

Distance of the entire journey = 197 miles

Distance travelled on train = x

Distance travelled on bus = 197-x

Average speed of train = 70 mph

Average speed of bus = 60 mph

Time = Distance / Speed

\frac{x}{70}+\frac{197-x}{60}=3\\\Rightarrow \frac{6x+1379-7x}{420}=3\\\Rightarrow -x+1379=3\times 420\\\Rightarrow -x=1260-1379\\\Rightarrow x=119\ miles

Distance travelled by train = 119 miles

Time taken on train = 119 / 70 = 1.7 hours

Manuel spent 1.7 hours on the​ train

I really need your help, please help me. How do I solve for ke without even having mass
Illusion [34]
I’m not fully sure - I’m studying the same topic as you in school and we haven’t covered it yet. BUT I can help you a teeny bit....

Note: You May know this but velocity means speed.

The formula for calculating kinetic energy is :

Ek = 1/2 mv2

E= kinetic energy ( J )
M= mass (kg)
V = velocity (m/s)

What is the equivalent resistance of a 12-ohm resistor wired in parallel with a 4-ohm resistor?
Verdich [7]

R=\frac{R1.R2}{R1+R2} = \frac{12.4}{12+4}=\frac{48}{16}=3

The answer is : C. 3.0 ohms

Ok done. Thank to me :>

A 2 kg book is pushed across a table is a force 4.  Assuming no friction, what is the acceleration of the book?
murzikaleks [220]

Apply Newton's second law:

F = ma

Given values:

m = 2kg

F = 4N

Substitute the terms in the equation with the given values and solve for a:

4 = 2a

<h3>a = 2m/s²</h3>

The components of vector A are:
Korvikt [17]

here as it is given that x component of the vector is positive while y component of the vector is negative so we can say the vector must inclined in Fourth quadrant.

So angle must be more than 270 degree and less than 360 degree

Now in order to find the value we can say that

tan\theta = \frac{opposite\: side}{adjacent\: side}

tan\theta = \frac{8.6}{6.1}

\theta = tan^{-1}1.41

\theta = 54.65^0

so it is inclined at above angle with X axis in fourth quadrant

Now if angle is to be measured counterclockwise then its magnitude will be

\theta = 360 - 54.65 = 305.3^0

so the correct answer will be 305 degree

What does the phrase "1 meter per second per second" means? A. The velocity of an object can increase by 1 meter per second, for
OLga [1]

Explanation:

"1 meter per second per second" means acceleration of an object. It is equal to the rate of change of velocity. Its SI unit is m/s^2.

It is simply given by :

a=\dfrac{dv}{dt}

dv is change in velocity

dt is small interval of time

"1 meter per second per second" means that the velocity of an object can increase by 1 meter per second.
