Answer:

Explanation:

Let r be the rate of the slower walker in mph

[r + (r + 1.7)](2) = 13

    (2r + 1.7)(2) = 13

         4r + 3.4 = 13

                  4r = 9.6

                    r = 2.4 mph

            r + 1.7 = 4.1 mph

The sun is 1.5 × 108 km from Earth. The index of refraction for water is 1.349. How much longer would it take light from the sun
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

175s

Explanation:

time it takes sunlight to reach the earth in  vacuum

C=light speed=299792458m/s

X=1.5x10^8km=1.5x10^11m

c=X/t

T1=X/c

T1=1.5X10^11/299792458=500.34s

time it takes sunlight to reach the earth in  water:

First we calculate the speed of light in water taking into account the refractive index

Cw=299792458m/s/1.349=222233104.5m/s

T2=1.5x10^11/222233104.5m/s=675s

additional time it would take for the light to reach the earth

ΔT=T2-T1=675-500=175s

Felix expends 100 W of power to clomb 10 meters in 20 seconds how much force does he exert
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

200 N

Explanation:

Power = work / time

Work = force × distance

Therefore:

Power = force × distance / time

100 W = F × 10 m / 20 s

F = 200 N

He exerted 200 N.
