5 0

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

Calculate the pressure exerted on the floor when an elephant who weighs 6000 N stands on one foot which has an area of 20 m2
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

300 Pascal

Explanation:

Given

weight or force (F) = 6000 N

area (A) = 20 m²

pressure (p) = ?

we know

the force acting normally per unit area is pressure. So

P = F / A

= 6000 / 20

= 300 Pascal

Hope it will help :)

A man walks 7 km, east in 2 hours and 2 km in 1 hour in the same direction. a) what is
Rzqust [24]

Explanation:

Average speed = distance / time

|v| = (7 km + 2 km) / (2 hr + 1 hr)

|v| = 3 km/hr

Average velocity = displacement / time

v = (7 km east + 2 km east) / (2 hr + 1 hr)

v = 3 km/hr east

horsena [70]

Answer:

Today, scientists believe that the main reason the earth has had periodic ages is that the climate of earth is controlled by the difference in heating of it's surface by the sun. As for example, the equatorial regions are the warmest as the sun is vertically overhead of those areas and the polar regions where the sun is at the extreme angels are the coldest ones.
