Explanation
the function for the distance is given by
[tex]\text{distance}=\text{ sp}eed\cdot time\text{ }[/tex]then, let
speed= 0.25 m/s
time= t
distance= 2m
hence, replace
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{distance}=\text{ sp}eed\cdot time\text{ } \\ \text{distance}=0.25\frac{m}{s}\cdot t \\ d(t)=0.25t\Rightarrow equation\text{ of the line} \end{gathered}[/tex]Step 2
now, to graph the line we need 2 points
a) when t= 0
[tex]\begin{gathered} d(t)=0.25t\Rightarrow equation\text{ of the line} \\ d(0)=0.25\cdot0 \\ d(0)=0 \\ so \\ \text{coordinate 1(0,0)} \end{gathered}[/tex]P1(0,0)
b) when the car has covered 2m
let d=2
replace and solve for x
[tex]\begin{gathered} d(t)=0.25t\Rightarrow equation\text{ of the line} \\ 2=0.25t \\ \text{divide both sides by 0.25} \\ \frac{2}{0.25}=\frac{0.25t}{0.25} \\ 8=t \\ \text{hence, after 8 seconds, the distance is 2 m, so the coordinate is} \\ (8,2) \end{gathered}[/tex]P2(8,2)
finally, draw a line that passes through the point P1(0,0) and P2(8,2)
I hope this helps you

A motorboat travels 408 kilometers in 6 hours going upstream and 882 kilometers in 9 hours going downstream. What is the rate of the boat, and what is the rate of the current?
Answers
We have the next variables
x = speed of the boat in still water
y = speed of the current
(x-y) = Upstream speed
(x+y) = downstream speed
So we have the next equations for the distance
[tex]\begin{gathered} 6\mleft(x-y\mright)=408 \\ \end{gathered}[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} 9(x+y)=882 \\ \end{gathered}[/tex]We simplify each equation
[tex]\begin{gathered} x-y=68 \\ x+y=98 \end{gathered}[/tex]we sum both equations
[tex]\begin{gathered} 2x=166 \\ x=\frac{166}{2} \\ x=83 \end{gathered}[/tex]Then we calculate the y

A woman tries to throw a rock over a wall, releasing the rock at a height of 1.55m abovethe ground. If she throws the rock at 6 m/s, will it reach the top of the wall 3.75m aboveher?
Answers
Answer:
[tex]H_{\max }-H_{\text{wall}}=-0.3635m\Rightarrow Negative[/tex]Explanation: We need to find if the rock can reach the height of the wall, provided the initial velocity of 6m/s and it is thrown from the height of 1.55m above the ground., the equations used to solve this problem are as follows:
[tex]\begin{gathered} v(t)=v_o-gt\Rightarrow(1) \\ y(t)=y_o+v_ot-\frac{1}{2}gt^2\Rightarrow(2) \end{gathered}[/tex]Plugging in the known values in the equation (1) and (2) we get the following results:
[tex]\begin{gathered} v(t)=6ms^{-1}-(9.8ms^{-2})t\Rightarrow(3) \\ y(t)=1.55m+(6ms^{-1})t-\frac{1}{2}(9.8ms^{-2})t^2\Rightarrow(4) \\ \end{gathered}[/tex]Setting equation (3) equal to zero gives the time to reach the maximum height as follows:
[tex]\begin{gathered} v(t)=6ms^{-1}-(9.8ms^{-2})t=0 \\ t=\frac{(6ms^{-1})}{(9.8ms^{-2})}=0.61s \\ t=0.61s \end{gathered}[/tex]Substituting the time t calculated above in equation (4) gives the maximum height, the steps for the calculation are shown as follows:
[tex]\begin{gathered} y(0.62)=1.55m+(6ms^{-1})(0.62s)-\frac{1}{2}(9.8ms^{-2})(0.62s)^2 \\ y(0.62)=1.55m+3.72m-1.88356m=3.3865m \\ y(0.62)=3.3865m \\ H_{\max }=3.3865m \\ H_{\max }-H_{\text{wall}}=3.3865m-3.75m=-0.3635m\Rightarrow Negative \\ \\ \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, the ball can not reach the height of the wall!
At which section does the object move with a positive velocity
Answers
The velocity of any objetc is defined in terms of initial and final position of the object is,
[tex]v=\frac{d_f-d_i}{t}[/tex]As in the graph during the motion of object, the final position of the object is decreasing with time. Thus, the final position is always less than the initial position.
[tex]d_f-d_i<0[/tex]Thus, the value of velocity at every point is,
[tex]v<0[/tex]Hence, first option (This object never has a positive velocity) is the correct answer.
The virtual image of a lens is always on the same side of the lens as the object. Is this true or false?
Answers
The lens follows the law of refraction to form an image of the object.
Thus, for the formation of real image, the image should be formed on the opposite side of the lens.
The virtual image is formed when the image is on the same side of the lens as where the object is present.
Thus, the given statement is true.

How much heat is needed to increase the internal energy of a gas in a piston by 4,258 J if the gas does 801 J of work on the environment by expanding if the process
Answers
According to the First Law of Thermodynamics, the change in internal energy (ΔU) of a system is equal to the sum of the heat (Q) added to the system and the work (W) exerted over the system:
[tex]\Delta U=Q+W[/tex]The sign of the heat and the work is positive when energy is transferred to the system and negative when energy is transferred from the system to its surroundings.
In this case, the system is formed by a gas on a piston, which gains 4,258 Joules in internal energy and releases 801 Joules as work. Then:
[tex]+4258J=Q-801J[/tex]Isolate Q from the equation to find the heat needed for this process:
[tex]\Rightarrow Q=4258J+801J=5059J[/tex]Therefore, the amount of heat needed to increase the internal energy of a system by 4,258J if it releases 801 of work to the environment, is 5059J.

Firstly, we need to remember how to find the liquid charge for a single atom. We can start by saying that

Answers
If the price that needs to be paid per month is $295, first let's convert the total amount of time (2 years) to months.
1 year has 12 months, therefore 2 years have 24 months.

What does the lower scale read? Answer in units of N
Answers
We will have the following:
First, we are given:
*Mass of the breaker: 1.1kg
*Mass of water: 3.3 kg
*Mass of metallic alloy: 4.2kg
*Density of the alloy: 5300kg/m^3
*Density of water: 1000kg/m^3
Now, we find the volume of water displaced by the alloy:
[tex]V_{\text{w}}=4.2\operatorname{kg}\cdot\frac{m^3}{5300\operatorname{kg}}\Rightarrow V_w=\frac{21}{26500}m^3\Rightarrow V_w\approx7.92\cdot10^{-4}m^3[/tex]Then, from the reading in the hanging scale we will have the force experienced by the alloy due to the upthrust when placed in water, that is:
[tex]R=mg-\rho Vg[/tex]So:
[tex]R=(4.2\operatorname{kg})(9.8m/s^2)-(1000\operatorname{kg}/m^3)(\frac{21}{26500}m^3)(9.8m/s^2)[/tex][tex]\Rightarrow R=33.39396226\ldots N\Rightarrow R\approx33.4N[/tex]The reading on the lower scale is due to the weight of the water in the breaker and upthrust on the scale:
[tex]R=g(m_1+m_2)+\rho Vg[/tex]Finally:
[tex]R=(9.8m/s^2)(1.1\operatorname{kg}+3.3\operatorname{kg})+(1000\operatorname{kg}/m^3)(\frac{21}{26500}m^3)(9.8m/s^2)[/tex][tex]\Rightarrow R=50.886003774\ldots N\Rightarrow R\approx50.9N[/tex]So, the readin on the lower scale is approximately 50.9N.

The changed distance between the earth and the satellite R₂=1.80×10⁷ m
To find:
The changed force between the earth and the satellite.
Explanation:
From Newton's gravitational law, the gravitational force between two objects is directly proportional to the product of the mass of the objects and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
Let us assume that the mass of the earth is M and the mass of the satellite is m.
