Answer:

t= 137.5 s

Explanation:

So if we are wanting to figure out how long it takes runner B to catch runner A. we must first set the slope of each runner equal to one another

<u>Slopes:</u>

Runner A:    y = 7.50x + 55

Runner B:    y = 7.90 x

sooooo

  7.50 x + 55 = 7.90 x

- 7.50 x          - 7.50 x

 55 = .40 x

55/.40 = .40 x / .40

x = 137.5 s

t= 137.5 s

7.50 * 137.5 + 55 =1086.25 m

7.90 * 137.5 =  1086.25 m

How much work does a student (m = 60 kg) do when he Climb a tower 80 m high?
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

W = 47040  J

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of a student, m = 60 kg

Height of the tower, h = 80 m

We need to find the work done in climbing the tower. The work done is given by :

W = mgh

So,

W = 60 × 9.8 × 80

W = 47040  J

So, the required work done is 47040  J.

4. How long will it take a car travelling with a speed of 160 km hr to cover a distance of 700 meters? Hint: km/hr should be con
Inessa [10]

Answer:

15.8 seconds

Explanation:

Create an extended calculation to convert all the unit to what you need.

160 km      1000 m       1 hour         1 min

----------- x ------------- x -------------- x ----------   =  44.4 m/s

1 hour            1 km         60 min      60 sec

So 160km/hr is equal to 44.4m/s

Now you can figure out how many seconds it will take to go 700 meters.

44.4 m          

----------   X     x sec   =  700 m

1  sec

Solve for x sec

x sec = 700m / 44.4 m/s

         =  15.8 seconds

Determine the potential difference between the ends of the wire of resistance 5 Ω if 720 C passes through it per minute.
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

The potential difference between the ends of a wire is 60 volts.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Resistance, R = 5 ohms

Charge, q = 720 C

Time, t = 1 min = 60 s

We know that the charge flowing per unit charge is called current in the circuit. It is given by :

I = 12 A

Let V is the potential difference between the ends of a wire. It can be calculated using Ohm's law as :

V = IR

V = 60 Volts

So, the potential difference between the ends of a wire is 60 volts. Hence, this is the required solution.

A total solar eclipse is a rare event. Although they occur somewhere on earth every 18 months on average, it is estimated that t
Setler79 [48]
Because the tip of the moon's shadow ... the area of "totality" ... is never more than a couple hundred miles across, It never covers a single place for more than 7 minutes, and can never stay on the Earth's surface for more than a few hours altogether during one eclipse.

If you're not inside that small area, you don't see a total eclipse.
