An ostrich is being chased by a cheetah,
The ostrich is running at 44 feet per
second and the cheetah at 110 feet per
second. If the two started at the same
place and the ostrich got a 60-second
head start, how many seconds will it be
before the cheetah catches it?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

  40 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

  (ostrich speed * seconds) + head start = (cheetah speed * seconds)

                                        44x + (44 * 60) = 110x

                                             44x + 2640 = 110x

                                                       2640 = 66x

                                                              x = 40

Answer 2

No. of seconds before cheetah catches ostrich = 40 seconds

What is speed?

Speed tells us how slow or fast an object moves. It describes the distance travelled divided by the time taken to cover the distance.

Speed is directly Proportional to Distance and Inversely proportional to Time.

Speed = Distance/Time

Given,

Speed of ostrich = 44 feet per second

Speed of cheetah = 110 feet per second

Starting point is same

Ostrich got 60 second head start

Distance travelled by ostrich in 60 second = 44 × 60 = 2640 feet

let  S  be the number of seconds that it will take the cheetah to catch the ostrich

Distance covered by cheetah = 110S

Distance that  the ostrich will cover before being caught  is  2640 + 44S

According to the question

110S  = 2640 + 44S  

110S - 44S =2650

66S  =  2640  

S = 2640/66

S = 40 seconds.

Hence, It will be 40 seconds before cheetah catches the ostrich.

Use the equation p= 8.31/v where p = pressure and V = volume.

What happens to the pressure as the volume approaches 0? Explain your reasoning.

Answers

Answer: pressure increases

Step-by-step explanation:

because Boyle's law states that pressure and volume have an inverse relationship, if we decrease volume the pressure will increase.

Another explanation: since volume approaches 0, we're dividing by a smaller number, and doing this gives us a larger value for pressure

Answer:

The pressure approaches infinity.

The function is undefined for V = 0.

There is an asymptote at V = 0.

Find the total surface area of the
following square pyramid:
9 cm
10 cm
SA = [?]cm2

Answers

Answer:

280 cm2

Step-by-step explanation:

1)find the area of square

A=LW

=10×10

=100

2) find the area of triangle

A=B×H÷2

=10×9/2

=45

Coz,there are 4 triangle we multiple by 4

=45×4

=180

3)find the total surface area by adding the two

=100+180

=280cm2

Answer:

SA = [280] cm 2

Step-by-step explanation:

For Lateral Area the formula is 4(1/2 10 x 9)

But the 1/2 makes it 4(1/2 5 x 9)

Then you multiply 5 x 9 = 45 then multiply 45 by the 4 and get 180

Then for Surface Area you put in (180 + 100) = 280

You get the 100 by multiplying 2 of the base numbers together.

First you have to subtract 180 to 103 and you get 77 because a straight line always add up to 180, then you have to add that 77 to the 37 that is inside of the triangle and you get 114 and then you subtract 180 to 114 and you get 66 because the sum of the angles inside of the triangle is 180 degrees
The final answer is x= 66

At a dairy farm the ratio of adult milking cows to young calves was 9:2. If there were 234 adult milking cows at the farm, how many young calves were there?

Answers

Answer:

52 young calves

Step-by-step explanation:

At a dairy farm the ratio of adult milking cows to young calves was 9:2. If there were 234 adult milking cows at the farm, how many young calves were there?

The ration is given as:

adult milking cows to young calves

= 9 : 2

= 234 : x

= 9/2 = 234/x

x = Number of young calves

Cross Multiply

9 × x = 2 × 234

= x = 2 × 234/9

x = 468/9

x = 52

Hence, the number of young calves on the farm is 52.

Determine the mass of an object, if it requires a force of 6,000 kg: m/s2 to accelerate at the rate of 2 m/s^2

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 3000 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

The mass of an object can be found by using the formula

[tex]m = \frac{f}{a} \\ [/tex]

f is the force

a is the acceleration

From the question we have

[tex]m = \frac{6000}{2} \\ [/tex]

We have the final answer as

3000 kg

Hope this helps you

[tex] \boxed{ \red{AnswEr:-}}[/tex]

Mass = 3000 kg

GivEn :-

Force = 6000 kg • m/s^2Acceleration = 2 m/s^2

To Find :-

The value of mass

Solution :-

From Newton's 2nd law of motion we get the equation,

[tex]{ \boxed{ \red{ \sf{F =

m \times a}}}}[/tex]

where,

F = Force m = mass of the objecta = acceleration

[tex] \implies \sf \: m = \dfrac{F}{a} [/tex]

Putting the values,

[tex] \implies \sf \: m = \dfrac{6000}{2} [/tex]

[tex] \implies \red{\sf \: m = 3000}[/tex]

Therefore, mass of the object = 3000 kg
