A driver averaged 64 mph and took 3½ hours to travel from st. Louis to chicago. Based on this, what is the distance between st.

Louis and chicago

Average speed of the driver is given as

$v = 64 mph$

if he moved for total time t = 3.5 hours

so the distance between the tow is given as

$d = v* t$

$d = 64 * 3.5$

$d = 224 miles$

so the distance between St. Louis and Chicago is 224 miles

When she rides her bike, she gets to her first classroom building 36 minutes faster than when she walks. Of her average walking

postnew [5]

Answer:

$d=2.4\ miles$

Explanation:

Given:

average walking speed, $v_w=3\ mph$

average biking speed, $v_b=12\ mph$

<u>According to given condition:</u>

$t_w=t_b+\frac{36}{60}$

where:

$t_w=$ time taken to reach the building by walking

$t_b=$ time taken to reach the building by biking

We know that,

$\rm time=\frac{distance}{speed}$

so,

$\frac{d}{v_w} =\frac{d}{v_b} +\frac{36}{60}$

$\frac{d}{3}=\frac{d}{12} +\frac{3}{5}$

$d=2.4\ miles$

Which of the following statements about energy is true? I. Kinetic energy cannot be transformed into another type of energy. II.

Mashcka [7]

Answer: B. II and III only

Explanation:

Let’s begin by explianing what energy is: the ability of matter to produce work in the form of movement, light, heat, among others. In this sense, there are several types of energy, but we will talk especifically in this case about <u>kinetic energy</u> and <u>potential energy</u>.

<u>Kinetic energy </u>is the energy an object or body has due to its movement and depends on the mass and velocity of the object or body.

To understande it better: If an object is at rest, its velocity is null and it does not have kinetic energy, however, if the object is moving, then it has kinetic energy.

On the other hand, <u>Potential energy</u> is known as <em>“stored energy”</em> that has the potential to be converted into energy of motion (kinetic energy) or another type of energy (thermal energy, for example). In addition, this energy is related to the work done when a certain force moves an object or body from its natural resting state along a distance to a new position.

So, according to this, Kinetic energy can be transformed into potential energy and Potential energy can be transformed into kinetic energy or any other type of energy. Hence, options II and III are correct.

At the race track, one race car starts its engine with a resulting intensity level of 104.0 dB at point P. Then 6 more cars star

dem82 [27]

To solve the problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to sound intensity. The most common approach to sound intensity measurement is to use the decibel scale:

$\beta (dB) = 10log_{10}(\frac{I}{I_0})$

Where,

$I_0 = 1*10^{-12}$ is a reference intensity. It is the lowest or threshold intensity of sound a person with normal hearing can perceive at a frequency of 1000 Hz.

I = Sound intensity

Our values are given by,

$\beta = 104dB$

$\#Autos = 7$

For each auto the intensity would be,

$104 = 10log\frac{I}{1*10^{-12}}$

$10.4= log_{10} (\frac{I}{10^{-12}})$

$10^{10.4}*10^{-12}=I$

$I = 0.02511W/m^2$

Therefore the sound intesity for the 7 autos is

$I= 7* 0.02511$

$I = 0.1748W/m^2$

The sound level for the 7 cars in dB is

$\beta (dB) = 10log_{10}(\frac{0.1748}{1*10^{-12}})$

$\beta (dB) = 112.42dB$
