Two cyclists start at the same point and travel in opposite directions. One cyclist travels 2 mi/h slower than the other. If the two cyclists are 123 miles apart after 3 hours, what is the rate of each cyclist?

Answers

Answer 1

One cyclist travels at x mi/h, the other at x-2 mi/h. Their rates are 41 mi/h and 39 mi/h.

Let's call the rate of the faster cyclist "x" and the rate of the slower cyclist "x-2" (since we know the slower cyclist travels at 2 mi/h slower).

We know that they are traveling in opposite directions, so we can add their rates together to find the total distance traveled: x + (x-2) = 2x - 2.

We also know that after 3 hours, they are 123 miles apart, so we can set up the equation: 3(x + x-2) = 123.

Simplifying this equation gives us: 6x - 6 = 123, which we can solve for x: 6x = 129, x = 21.5.

So the faster cyclist is traveling at a rate of 21.5 mi/h, and the slower cyclist is traveling at a rate of 19.5 mi/h.

A 100-lb child stands on a scale while riding in an elevator. What does the scale read while the elevator slows to stop at the lowest floor

Answers

Answer: A 100-lb child stands on a scale while riding in an elevator. Then, the scale reading approaches to 100lb, while the elevator slows to stop at the lowest floor

Explanation: To find the correct answer, we need to know more about the apparent weight of a body in a lift.

What is the apparent weight of a body in a lift?Consider a body of mass m kept on a weighing machine in a lift.The readings on the machine is the force exerted by the body on the machine(action), which is equal to the force exerted by the machine on the body(reaction).The reaction we get as the weight recorded by the machine, and it is called the apparent weight.How to solve the question?Here we have given with the actual weight of the body as 100lbs.This 100lb child is standing on the scale or the weighing machine, when it is riding .During this condition, the acceleration of the lift is towards downward, and thus, a force of ma .There is also mg downwards and a normal reaction in the upward direction.when we equate both the upward force and downward force, we get,

                             [tex]ma=mg-N\\N=mg-ma[/tex]    i.e. during riding the scale reads a weight less than that of actual weight.

When the lift goes slow and stops the lowest floor, then the acceleration will be approaches to zero.

Thus, from the above explanation, it is clear that ,when the elevator moves to the lowest floor slowly and stops, then the apparent weight will become the actual weight.

Answers

Vega, the brightest star in the constellation lyra, has a parallax angle of approximately 0.13 arcseconds,  approximately  Vega will be 25.076 Light year or 7.692 Parsec away from the sun

The parallax angle is the angle between the Earth at one time of year, and the Earth six months later, as measured from a nearby star.

Mathematically it can be understood as that the parallax angle is the angle which is taken from a point at one time on the earth and again after six months later from the same point on the earth. The parallax angle is the semi-angle of inclination between the two lines to sight.

Stellar parallax is the basis for the parsec, which is the distance from the Sun to an astronomical object that has a parallax angle of one arcsecond.

Distance (in parsec) = 1 / (parallax angle ( arcsec))

given

parallax angle = 0.13 arcseconds

Distance (in parsec) = 1/ 0.13 = 7.692 Parsec

if 1 Parsec = 3.26 Light year

So, 7.692 Parsec will be equal to =  3.26 * 7.692 = 25.076 Light year

What is the spring constant k?

Group of answer choices

Answers

Answer:

Approximately [tex]13\; {\rm N \cdot m^{-1}}[/tex] (assuming that [tex]g = 9.81\; {\rm N \cdot kg^{-1}}[/tex].)

Explanation:

Let [tex]F_{\text{s}}[/tex] denote the force that this spring exerts on the object. Let [tex]x[/tex] denote the displacement of this spring from the equilibrium position.

By Hooke's Law, the spring constant [tex]k[/tex] of this spring would ensure that [tex]F_\text{s} = -k\, x[/tex].

Note that the mass of the object attached to this spring is [tex]m = 540\; {\rm g} = 0.540\; {\rm kg}[/tex]. Thus, the weight of this object would be [tex]m\, g = 0.540\; {\rm kg} \times 9.81\; {\rm N \cdot kg^{-1}} \approx 5.230\; {\rm N}[/tex].

Assuming that this object is not moving, the spring would need to exert an upward force of the same magnitude on the object. Thus, [tex]F_{\text{s}} = 5.230\; {\rm N}[/tex].

The spring in this question was stretched downward from its equilibrium by:

[tex]\begin{aligned} x &= (70\; {\rm cm} - 110\; {\rm cm}) \\ &= (-40)\; {\rm cm} \\ &= (-0.40) \; {\rm m}\end{aligned}[/tex].

(Note that [tex]x[/tex] is negative since this displacement points downwards.)

Rearrange Hooke's Law to find [tex]k[/tex] in terms of [tex]F_{\text{s}}[/tex] and [tex]x[/tex]:

[tex]\begin{aligned} k &= \frac{F_{\text{s}}}{-x} \\ &\approx \frac{5.230\; {\rm N}}{-(-0.40)\; {\rm m}} \\ &\approx 13\; {\rm N \cdot m^{-1}}\end{aligned}[/tex].

Which of the following areas takes visual information from one side of the body and conveys it to the opposite side

Answers

The optic chiasm is the point where the optic nerves cross the midline, allowing the opposite side of the brain to process sensory data from one side of the body.

What is the optic chiasm and where is it located?

Since the optic nerves cross in the optic chiasm, also known as the optic chiasma, it plays a crucial role in the visual pathway. Within the suprasellar cistern, it is situated 10 mm above the pituitary gland and 10 mm beneath the hypothalamus near the base of the brain.

The optic chiasm's function is to make sure that visual impulses reach both hemispheres of the brain. The thalamus receives and processes the majority of brain impulses, which are then transmitted to various parts of the occipital lobe. Half of each divided optic nerve's fibers travel to the opposing side. Due to the anatomical configuration, injury to the optic nerve system results in particular patterns of vision loss.

A. increases by a factor of 4.
B. increases by a factor of 2.
C. increases by a factor of 16.
D. decreases by a factor of 4.
E. decreases by a factor of 16.

Answers

Gravity follows an inverse square law. This means that if the distance between two masses is decreased by a factor of 4, the gravitational force between those two masses: C. increases by a factor of 16.

Gravitational force is an attractive force that exists between all objects with mass; an object with mass attracts another object with mass; the magnitude of the force is directly proportional to the masses of the two objects and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the two objects.

Force between two masses = G M1 M1 / [tex]R^{2}[/tex]

since , gravitation force d follows an inverse square law

F is directly proportional to 1/[tex]R^{2}[/tex]

If distance between two masses is decreased by a factor of 4

Let initial distance  : R

when distance between two masses is decreased by a factor of 4 = 4R

Force  = G M1 M1 / [tex](4R)^{2}[/tex]

Force =  G M1 M1 / [tex]16R^{2}[/tex]

16 Force = G M1 M1 / [tex]R^{2}[/tex]

since , there is an inverse relation , so if distance is decreased , gravitation force will increase .

hence, gravitational force will increase by factor of 16

correct option C. increases by a factor of 16.

137.5 kg mass can be placed 2m away from the other end of the bar to keep the bar horizontally.

What does horizontal mean?Any straight line traveling from left to right or right to left is a horizontal line. If two points on a line share the same Y-coordinates, the line is said to be horizontal in coordinate geometry. It is derived from the word "horizon." In other words, the horizon or x-axis is always parallel to the horizontal lines.In the coordinate plane, a horizontal line is a straight line drawn from right to left or from left to right, perpendicular to the x-axis. In other words, a horizontal line is a straight line with an intercept solely on the y-axis, not the x-axis.

To keep the bar horizontal, the right and left side torques must be equal:

[tex]F_{1} d_{1} =F_{2} d_{2}[/tex]

[tex]F_{2} =F_{1} \frac{d_{1} }{d_{2} }[/tex]

    [tex]=(55.9.8)\frac{5}{2}[/tex]

    =1347.5 N.

Convert this force of gravity into mass:

[tex]F_{2} =m_{2} g,[/tex]

[tex]m_{2} =\frac{F_{2} }{g}[/tex]

     [tex]=\frac{1347.5}{9.8}[/tex]

what is the frequency of a wave that has a wavelength of 0.20m and a speed of 22 m/s?

Answers

Answer:

f=110HZ

Explanation:

Calculate the frequency of a wave

Based on equation λ= VT but T= 1/f

=> λ=V/f

=> f= V/λ

by V=22m/s

λ= 0.20m

=> f= 22/0.20= 22/(2×10-¹) = 110Hz

So the frequency of a wave is f=110Hz

Answer:

110

Explanation:

velocity=wavelength×frequency

22=0.20f

divide both sides by 0.20

22/0.20=0.20f/0.20

f=22/0.20

f=110
