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

Dierdre drew a diagram to compare the three types of mirrors.
Sholpan [36]

<em>Labels that belong in the marked ares X, Y & Z include;</em>

X: Curves outward

Y: Image may be smaller than object

Z: Image is always virtual

<u>Since the rays never meet, the images formed by convex mirrors are always virtual and smaller than the object, and since they are smaller, the images appear to be further than they actually are.</u>

Why does the entropy of a gas increase when it expands into a vacuum? Why does the entropy of a gas increase when it expands int
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

The entropy of a gas increases when it expands into a vacuum because the number of possible states increases .

Explanation:

When a gas expand in a vacuum, the molecules of the gases vibrates very fast and starting moving with higher velocity in random directions which means the level of disorder in the gases increases.

Now the possible state of the gas molecule increases such as the particle can be located at different position due to increased randomness.

<u>Entropy is the measure of this randomness and thus with this increased randomness entropy also increases.</u>
