Radio waves are the longest
Explanation:
When Joe works alone, the total number of words he typed can be given by:
Total words = (40 words per minute) x (60 minutes per hour) x (2.5 hours)
Total words = 6000 words
Now, when Joe and Mark work together, let 'y' be the number of hours for which they both work simultaneously:
Total words = Words Typed by Joe + Words Typed by Mark
6000 = {(40 words per minute) x (60 minutes per hours) x (y hours)} + {(20 words per minute) x (60 minutes per hours) x (y hours)}
6000 = 2400y + 1200y = 3600y
y = 1.67 hours = 1 hour and 40 minutes
Thus, working together simultaneously, Joe and Mark will take 1 hour and 40 minutes to complete the report.
The problem states that the distance travelled (d) is
directly proportional to the square of time (t^2), therefore we can write this in
the form of:
d = k t^2
where k is the constant of proportionality in furlongs /
s^2
<span>Using the 1st condition where d = 2 furlongs, t
= 2 s, we calculate for the value of k:</span>
2 = k (2)^2
k = 2 / 4
k = 0.5 furlongs / s^2
The equation becomes:
d = 0.5 t^2
Now solving for d when t = 4:
d = 0.5 (4)^2
d = 0.5 * 16
<span>d = 8 furlongs</span>
<span>
</span>
<span>It traveled 8 furlongs for the first 4.0 seconds.</span>
Well, I'm not sure right now that it actually does.
But if it does, that's because the sun is about 400 times
FARTHER from the Earth than the moon is.
