The minimum  speed that the second swimmer must have in order to catch up with the first swimmer by the end of the  pool is; <u><em>4.04 m/s</em></u>

We are given the following facts;

  • Both swimmers swim the same distance of 50 m for a leg of the relay race.
  • Swimmer 1 swims at constant speed of 3.9 m/s.
  • Swimmer 1 has a 0.450 second head start.

Formula for time taken is;

time = distance/speed

Time taken by swimmer 1 for one leg;

t₁ = 50/3.9

t₁ = 12.82 s

Since swimmer 1 has a head start of 0.45 s, then time that swimmer 2 must use in order to catch up is;

t₂ = 12.82 -0.45

t₂ = 12.37 s

Thus, speed of swimmer 2;

v = 50/12.37

v = 4.04 m/s

While walking along the shore of a lake Travis felt a cold breeze. What type of heat energy transfer is this an example of?
AfilCa [17]
Out of the 3 types of heat transfer, this scenario would be most likely to be an example of convection.

Convection is where the transferring of heat is resulted through the movements of fluid, but in this case it is air. What happens is that when a part of the whole mass of air is heated, the hotter air rises and the cooler air descends and takes place of the hotter air before it was heated. Then, the cooler air becomes hotter and the hotter air before becomes the cooler air of both, which then results to the repeat of the exchange of places. This creates a motion until the whole mass has achieved mutual temperature, the heat source has stopped or extinguished, or there is a shift of temperature.
