Answer:

1.056 x 10⁷ lb-ft

Explanation:

v = Speed of the bike = 20 mph

t = time of travel = 2 h

d = distance traveled by cyclist

Distance traveled by cyclist is given as

d = v t

d = (20) (2)

d = 40 miles

We know that, 1 mile = 5280 ft

d = 40 (5280) ft

d = 211200 ft

F = force applied by cyclist = 50 lb

W = work done by cyclist

Work done by cyclist is given as

W = F d

W = (50) (211200)

W = 1.056 x 10⁷ lb-ft

Two sinusoidal waves are identical except for their phase. When these two waves travel along the same string, for which phase di
Kamila [148]

Answer:

zero or 2π is maximum

Explanation:

Sine waves can be written

      x₁ = A sin (kx -wt + φ₁)

     x₂ = A sin (kx- wt + φ₂)

When the wave travels in the same direction

      Xt = x₁ + x₂

      Xt = A [sin (kx-wt + φ₁) + sin (kx-wt + φ₂)]

We are going to develop trigonometric functions, let's call

     a = kx + wt

     Xt = A [sin (a + φ₁) + sin (a + φ₂)

We develop breasts of double angles

     sin (a + φ₁) = sin a cos φ₁ + sin φ₁ cos a

    sin (a + φ₂) = sin a cos φ₂ + sin φ₂ cos a

Let's make the sum

     sin (a + φ₁) + sin (a + φ₂) = sin a (cos φ₁ + cos φ₂) + cos a (sin φ₁ + sinφ₂)

to have a maximum of the sine function, the cosine of fi must be maximum

     cos φ₁ + cos φ₂ = 1 +1 = 2

the possible values ​​of each phase are

     φ1 = 0, π, 2π  

     φ2 = 0, π, 2π,  

so that the phase difference of being zero or 2π is maximum

A submarine completed a 450 km training with an average speed of 50 km/h. For the first 180 km, it travelled at an average speed
Kryger [21]

Answer:

45km/hr

Explanation:

Total distance=450km

Total speed=50km/hr

Total time= distance/speed

=450/50

=9hrs

distance a=180km

speed a=60km/hr

Time a=180/60

=3hrs

Distance b=450-180=270km

Speed b=?

Time b=270/speed b

Total time=time a + time b

9=3+(270/speed b)

270/speed b =9-3

270/speed b =6

6*speed b =270

Speed b=270/6

Speed b=45km/hr
