suppose larry stands with more weight on one scale than the other if one scale reads 400 N. what does the other read?

2 answers:

8 0

The other scale will either have a higher or lower number because 400 could be the bigger number or the smaller number but we don't know that so you cant exactly answer it.

8 0

You will take 400N divide by 2. The answer will be 200N.

The food calorie, equal to 4186J , is a measure of how much energy is released when food is metabolized by the body. A certain b

<h2>The hiker will go up to 850 m on the hill</h2>

Explanation:

The total energy gained by the hiker = 140 x 4186 J

This energy is consumed in the potential energy acquired , while climbing up the hill.

The potential energy P.E = mass of hiker x acceleration due to gravity x height

Thus

140 x 4186 = 69 x 10 x h

or h = $\frac{4186x140}{69x10}$ = 850 m

If the 20% of the total energy is used

the height h₀ = $\frac{0.2x4186x140}{69x10}$ = 170 m

Pamela drove her car 999999 kilometers and used 999 liters of fuel. she wants to know how many kilometers (k)(k)left parenthesis

Vanyuwa [196]

When the relationship between two variables are said to be proportional, it means that one variable is a constant multiple of the other variable. They are related by a constant of proportionality, usually denoted as k.

In this problem, the dependent variable is the distance in kilometers. Your mileage is limited with the amount of fuel you have. Thus, the independent variable is the liters of fuel. When these two are proportional, it could be expressed as

distance = k * liters of fuel, such that
distance/liters of fuel = k

By variation,

distance,1/liters of fuel,1 = distance,2/liters of fuel,2, where 1 denotes situation 1 and 2 denotes situation 2. Therefore,

999999 km /999 liters = x km /121212 liters, where x is the unknown distance. We can now therefore find the value of x.

x = (999999*121212)/999
x = 121333212 kilometers

A jetboat is drifting with a speed of 5.0\,\dfrac{\text m}{\text s}5.0 s m 5, point, 0, start fraction, start text, m, end tex

love history [14]

The question is incomplete. Here is the entire question.

A jetboat is drifting with a speed of 5.0m/s when the driver turns on the motor. The motor runs for 6.0s causing a constant leftward acceleration of magnitude 4.0m/s². What is the displacement of the boat over the 6.0 seconds time interval?

Answer: Δx = - 42m

Explanation: The jetboat is moving with an acceleration during the time interval, so it is a linear motion with constant acceleration.

For this "type" of motion, displacement (Δx) can be determined by:

$\Delta x = v_{i}.t + \frac{a}{2}.t^{2}$
