Answer:2000
Explanation:
A transverse wave is traveling through a canal. If the distance between two successive crests is 2.37 m and four crests of the wave pass a buoy along the direction of travel every 22.6 s, determine the following.
(a) frequency of the wave. Hz
(b) speed at which the wave is traveling through the canal. m/s
Answer:
(a) 0.0885 Hz
(b) 0.21 m/s
Explanation:
(a) Frequency: This can be defined as the number of cycle completed in one seconds.
From the question,
Note: 2 crest = one cycle,
If four crest = 22.6 s,
Then two crest = (22.6/2) s
= 11.3 s.
T = 11.3 s
But,
F = 1/T
F = 1/11.3
F = 0.0885 Hz.
(b)
Using,
V = λF...................... Equation 1
Where V = speed of wave, F = Frequency of wave, λ = wave length.
Given: F = 0.0885 Hz, λ = 2.37 m.
Substitute these values into equation 1
V = 2.37(0.0885)
V = 0.21 m/s.
An electron and a positron collide head on, annihilate, and create two 0.804 MeV photons traveling in opposite directions. What was the initial kinetic energy of an electron? What was the initial kinetic energy of a positron?
Answer:
Ke- = Ke+ = 0.294MeV
Explanation:
To fins the kinetic energy of both electron and positron you use the following formula, for the case of annihilation of one electron an positron:
2[tex]E_p=2E_o+K_{e^-}+K_{e^+}[/tex] (1)
Ep: photon energy = 0.804MeV
Eo: rest energy of one electron (and positron) = 0.51MeV
Ke-: kinetic energy of electron
Ke+: kinetic energy of positron
You replace the values of Ep and Eo in the equation (1):
[tex]K_{e^-}+K_{e^+}=2E_p-2E_o=2(0.804MeV-0.51MeV)=0.588MeV[/tex]
Iy you assume both positron and electron have the same speed, then, the kinetic energy of them are equal, and the kinetic energy of each one is:
[tex]K_{e^-}=K_{e^+}=\frac{0.588MeV}{2}=0.294MeV[/tex]
calculate the volume of marble if its diameter is 10mm
Answer:
The volume of the marble is [tex]523.33\ mm^2[/tex].
Explanation:
Marble is spherical in shape. The diameter of marble is 10 mm. It radius will be 5 mm.
The volume of spherical shaped object is given by :
[tex]V=\dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3[/tex]
Plugging all the values, we get :
[tex]V=\dfrac{4}{3}\times 3.14\times (5)^3\\\\V=523.33\ mm^2[/tex]
So, the volume of the marble is [tex]523.33\ mm^2[/tex].
What is a substance?
An 89.2-kg person with a density 1025 kg/m3 stands on a scale while completely submerged in water. What does the scale read?
Answer:
89.11kg
Explanation:
Note an object weighs less when in a fluid and the weight of the volume of the fluid displaced is known as the upthrust.
Now, the person is going to displace the volume 89/1025 =0.087m3 { from density D = mass(M)/volume(V)}
The weight of the fluid displaced is the density of the fluid × volume of fluid displaced.
The weight of the fluid=0.087m3× 1kg/me = 0.087kg
Now the weight of the fluid displaced is referred to as the upthrust.
Now the real weight - the apparent weight = the upthrust.
Hence the apparent weight = real weight - upthrust
Apparent weight = 89.2-0.087 = 89.11kg
A 0.25 kg steel ball is tied to the end of a string and then whirled in a vertical circle at a constant speed v. The length of the string is 0.62 m, and the tension in the string when the ball is at the top of the circle is 4.0 N. What is v
Answer:
Explanation:
Let the tension in the string be T . At the top of the circle , total force acting on them = T + mg . This will provide centripetal force
T + mg = m v² / r
4 + .25 x 9.8 = .25 x v² / .62
6.45 = .25 v² / .62
v² = 16
v = 4 m /s .
Mark Watney (Matt Damon in the Martian movie) and Marvin the Martian (Looney Tunes cartoon character) are having an argument on the surface of Mars (negligible air resistance). They are testing out their new potato launcher that fires projectiles at a constant speed. Mark launches his potato at an angle of 60◦ and Marvin launches his identical potato at an angle of 30◦ . Without any calculations try to answer the following questions, and justify each answer.
(A) Which potato lands farther away from the launcher (potatoes are launched from ground level)?
(B) Which potato spends more time in the air before hitting the ground
(C) Which potato has a greater speed just before it hits the ground?
Answer:
A) The two potatoes cover the same horizontal distance from the launcher.
B) Mark's potato spends more time in the air than Marvin's potato before hitting the ground.
C) Marvin's potato hits the ground with a greater speed than Mark's potato
Explanation:
A) For projectile motion, the final horizontal distance of the projectile from where it was initially launched (its range) is given as
R = (u² sin 2θ)/g
where
u = initial velocity of the projectile
θ = angle above the horizontal at which the projectile was launched = 30°, 60°
g = acceleration due to gravity on Mars
Since, u and g are the same for Mark and Marvin, sin 2θ would determine which range is higher.
Sin (2×60°) = sin 120°
Sin (2×30°) = sin 60°
Sin 120° = Sin 60°
Hence, the two potatoes cover the same horizontal distance from the launcher.
B) Time spent in the air for a projectile is given as
T = (2u sin θ)/g
Again, since u and g are the same for Mark and Marvin on Mars, sin θ will give the required idea of whose potato spends more time in the air.
Sin 60° = 0.866
Sin 30° = 0.50
Sin 60° > Sin 30°
Hence, Mark's potato spends more time in the air than Marvin's potato.
C) The horizontal velocity for projectile motion is constant all through the motion and is equal to u cos θ
u cos 60° < u cos 30°
And the initial vertical velocity is u sin θ
Final vertical velocity
= (initial vertical velocity) - gt
g = acceleration due to gravity on Mars
T = time of flight
For Mark,
initial vertical velocity = u sin 60°, greater than Marvin's u sin 30°
And Mark's potato's time of flight is greater as established in (B) above.
But for Marvin
initial vertical velocity = u sin 30°, less than Mark's u sin 60°
And Marvin's potato's time of flight is lesser as established in (B) above
So, at the end of the day, the final vertical velocity is almost the same for both Mark's and Marvin's potatoes.
Hence, the horizontal component of the final velocity edges the final speed of the potatoes just before hitting the ground in Marvin's favour.

A solid exerts a force of 500 N. Calculate the pressure exerted to the surface where area
of contact is 2000 cm2.
Answer:
2500 N/m²
Explanation:
Pressure: This can be defined as the force acting normally on a surface per unit area.
The expression for pressure is give as
P = F/A...................... Equation 1
Where P = pressure (N/m²), F = force (N), A = Contact area (m²)
Given: F = 500 N, A = 2000 cm² = (2000/10000) m = 0.2 m.
Substitute into equation 1
P = 500/0.2
P = 2500 N/m²
Hence the pressure exerted to the surface is 2500 N/m²
A diver shines light up to the surface of a flat glass-bottomed boat at an angle of 30° relative to the normal. If the index of refraction of water and glass are 1.33 and 1.5, respectively, at what angle (in degrees) does the light leave the glass (relative to its normal)?
A. 26
B. 35
C. 42
D. 22
E. 48
Answer:
35Explanation:
According to snell's law which states that the ratio of the sin of incidence (i) to the angle of refraction(n) is a constant for a given pair of media.
sini/sinr = n
n is the constant = refractive index
Since the diver shines light up to the surface of a flat glass-bottomed boat, the refractive index n = nw/ng
nw is the refractive index of water and ng is that of glass
sini/sinr = nw/ng
given i = 30°, nw = 1.33, ng = 1.5, r = angle the light leave the glass
On substitution;
sin 30/sinr = 1.33/1.5
1.5sin30 = 1.33sinr
sinr = 1.5sin30/1.33
sinr = 0.75/1.33
sinr = 0.5639
r = arcsin0.5639
r ≈35°
angle the light leave the glass is 35°
Four long wires are each carrying 6.0 A. The wires are located
at the 4 corners of a square with side length 9.0 cm. All of
these wires are carrying current out of the page. The
magnetic field (in T) at one corner of the square is:
Answer:
[tex]B_T=2.0*10^-5[-\hat{i}+\hat{j}]T[/tex]
Explanation:
To find the magnitude of the magnetic field, you use the following formula for the calculation of the magnetic field generated by a current in a wire:
[tex]B=\frac{\mu_oI}{2\pi r}[/tex]
μo: magnetic permeability of vacuum = 4π*10^-7 T/A
I: current = 6.0 A
r: distance to the wire in which magnetic field is measured
In this case, you have four wires at corners of a square of length 9.0cm = 0.09m
You calculate the magnetic field in one corner. Then, you have to sum the contribution of all magnetic field generated by the other three wires, in the other corners. Furthermore, you have to take into account the direction of such magnetic fields. The direction of the magnetic field is given by the right-hand side rule.
If you assume that the magnetic field is measured in the up-right corner of the square, the wire to the left generates a magnetic field (in the corner in which you measure B) with direction upward (+ j), the wire down (down-right) generates a magnetic field with direction to the left (- i) and the third wire generates a magnetic field with a direction that is 45° over the horizontal in the left direction (you can notice that in the image attached below). The total magnetic field will be:
[tex]B_T=B_1+B_2+B_3\\\\B_{T}=\frac{\mu_o I_1}{2\pi r_1}\hat{j}-\frac{\mu_o I_2}{2\pi r_2}\hat{i}+\frac{\mu_o I_3}{2\pi r_3}[-cos45\hat{i}+sin45\hat{j}][/tex]
I1 = I2 = I3 = 6.0A
r1 = 0.09m
r2 = 0.09m
[tex]r_3=\sqrt{(0.09)^2+(0.09)^2}m=0.127m[/tex]
Then you have:
[tex]B_T=\frac{\mu_o I}{2\pi}[(-\frac{1}{r_2}-\frac{cos45}{r_3})\hat{i}+(\frac{1}{r_1}+\frac{sin45}{r_3})\hat{j}}]\\\\B_T=\frac{(4\pi*10^{-7}T/A)(6.0A)}{2\pi}[(-\frac{1}{0.09m}-\frac{cos45}{0.127m})\hat{i}+(\frac{1}{0.09m}+\frac{sin45}{0.127m})]\\\\B_T=\frac{(4\pi*10^{-7}T/A)(6.0A)}{2\pi}[-16.67\hat{i}+16.67\hat{j}]\\\\B_T=2.0*10^-5[-\hat{i}+\hat{j}]T[/tex]

Therefore,
=> Power
Hence, the quantity F d/t is:
e.) power you supply to the crate
Dacia asks Katarina why it is important to learn a new coordinate system, because they have been using the Cartesian coordinate system and it seems to Dacia that it works fine. Which of Katarina's replies to Dacia are correct?

(D). Anything which involves radial motion(this is a motion along a radius) or motion along an arc of a circle or ellipse, this kind of motion is best explained and easily understood when in polar coordinates.
Two spectators at a soccer game see, and a moment later hear, the ball being kicked on the playing field. The time delay for the spectator A is 0.55 s, and for the spectator B it is 0.45 s. Sight lines from the two spectators to the player kicking the ball meet at an angle of 90°. The speed of sound in the air is 343 m/s.
How far are (a) spectator A and (b) spectator B from the player?
(c) How far are the spectators from each other?
Answer:
a)188.65m
b)154.35m
c)243.7m
Explanation:
Given data:
[tex]t_A=0.55s[/tex]
[tex]t_B=0.45s[/tex]
(a) The distance from the kicker to each of the 2 spectators is given by:
[tex]d_A=v \times t_A[/tex]
where,
v= speed of sound
[tex]t_A[/tex]=time taken for the sound waves to reach the ears
[tex]d_A=343\times 0.55=188.65[/tex]m
(b)[tex]d_B=v \times t_B[/tex]
where,
v= speed of sound
[tex]t_B[/tex]=time taken for the sound waves to reach the ears
[tex]d_B=343\times 0.45=154.35m[/tex]
(c)As the angle b/w slight lines from the two spectators to the player is right angle,
hypotenuse=the distance b/w 2 spectators
and, the slight lines are the other 2 lines
[tex]D^2=d_A^2+d_B^2\\D=\sqrt{188.65^2+154.35^2} \\D= 243.7m[/tex]

A 1.70 m tall woman stands 5.00 m in front of a camera with a 50.00 cm focal
length lens. Calculate the size of the image formed on flim
Answer:
18.89cm
Explanation:
As we know that the person is standing 5m in front of the camera
[tex]d_0=5m=500cm[/tex]
The focal length of the lens =50cm
f=50 cm
By Lens formula we have:
[tex]\dfrac{1}{f} = \dfrac{1}{d_i} + \dfrac{1}{d_o}\\\dfrac{1}{50} = \dfrac{1}{d_i} + \dfrac{1}{500}\\\dfrac{1}{d_i} =\dfrac{1}{50}-\dfrac{1}{500}\\\dfrac{1}{d_i}=0.018\\d_i=55.56cm[/tex]
By the formula of magnification
[tex]\dfrac{h_i}{h_o} = \dfrac{55.56}{500}\\\\h_i = \dfrac{55.56}{500} \times h_o\\\\ h_o=1.70m=170cm\\\\Therefore: h_i=\dfrac{55.56}{500} \times$ 170 cm\\\\h_i =18.89 cm[/tex]
The height of the image formed is 18.89cm.

The only force acting on a 3.2 kg canister that is moving in an xy plane has a magnitude of 6.7 N. The canister initially has a velocity of 3.3 m/s in the positive x direction, and some time later has a velocity of 6.9 m/s in the positive y direction. How much work is done on the canister by the 6.7 N force during this time
Answer:
The work done by the force is 5.76 J
Explanation:
Given;
mass of canister , m = 3.2 kg
magnitude of force, f = 6.7 N
initial velocity of the canister on x-axis, [tex]v_i[/tex]= 3.3i m/s
final velocity of the canister on y- axis, [tex]v_f[/tex] = 6.9j m/s
The work done on the canister = change in the kinetic energy of the canister
[tex]W = K.E_f - K.E_i[/tex]
where;
K.Ei is the initial kinetic energy
K.Ef is the final kinetic energy
The initial kinetic energy:
[tex]K.E_i = \frac{1}{2} *m\sqrt{i^2 +j^2+z^2}\\\\K.E_i = \frac{1}{2} *3.2\sqrt{3.3^2 +0^2+0^2}\\\\K.E_i = 5.28 \ J[/tex]
The final kinetic energy:
[tex]K.E_f = \frac{1}{2} *m\sqrt{i^2 +j^2+z^2}\\\\K.E_f = \frac{1}{2} *3.2\sqrt{0^2 +6.9^2+0^2}\\\\K.E_f = 11.04 \ J\\[/tex]
W = 11.04 - 5.28
W = 5.76 J
Therefore, work done on the canister by the 6.7 N force during this time is 5.76 J
g A proton is held at rest in a uniform electric field. When it is released, the proton will lose... electrical potential energy. kinetic energy. both kinetic energy and electric potential energy. neither kinetic energy or electric potential energy.
Answer:
It will lose electrical potential energy.
Explanation:
A photon held at rest in a uniform electrical field will lose electrical potential energy when it is released this is because the electrical potential energy is the energy posses by the photon at rest or by virtue of the position is converted to kinetic energy which is energy posses by a body in motion.
Since the photon is released and set in motion , it now has kinetic energy and has lost the potential energy because it is set in motion.
The friends now feel ready to try a problem. Suppose an Atwood machine has a mass of m1 = 2.5 kg and another mass of m2 = 8.5 kg hanging on opposite sides of the pulley. Assume the pulley is massless and frictionless, and the cord is ideal. Determine the magnitude of the acceleration of the two objects and the tension in the cord.
Answer:
a = 5.34 m/s²
T = 37.86 N
Explanation:
This is the case where two masses are hanging vertically on sides of the pulley. In such case, the formula for acceleration of objects is derived to be:
a = g(m₂ - m₁)/(m₂ + m₁)
where,
a = acceleration of both masses = ?
g = 9.8 m/s²
m₂ = heavier mass = 8.5 kg
m₁ = lighter mass = 2.5 kg
Therefore,
a = (9.8 m/s²)(8.5 kg - 2.5 kg)/(8.5 kg + 2.5 kg)
a = (9.8 m/s²)(6 kg)/(11 kg)
a = 5.34 m/s²
The formula for tension in cable is derived to be:
T = 2m₁m₂g/(m₁ + m₂)
T = (2)(2.5 kg)(8.5 kg)(9.8 m/s²)/(2.5 kg + 8.5 kg)
T = 37.86 N
To practice Problem-Solving Strategy 6.1: Circular motion A highway curve with radius R = 274 m is to be banked so that a car traveling v = 25.0 m/s will not skid sideways even in the absence of friction. At what angle should the curve be banked?
Answer:
The curve should be banked at an angle of 13 degrees.
Explanation:
We have,
Radius of a highway curve is 274 m
Speed of car on this curve is 25 m/s
Let [tex]\theta[/tex] is the banking angle. On a banked curve, the angle of safe diving is given by following expression.
[tex]\tan\theta=\dfrac{v^2}{Rg}[/tex]
g = 10 m/s²
Plugging all the values in above formula,
[tex]\tan\theta=\dfrac{(25)^2}{274\times 9.8}\\\\\theta=\tan^{-1}\left(\dfrac{(25)^{2}}{274\times9.8}\right)\\\\\theta=13^{\circ}[/tex]
So, the curve should be banked at an angle of 13 degrees.
If the radius of curvature of the cornea is 0.75 cm when the eye is focusing on an object 36.0 cm from the cornea vertex and the indexes of refraction are as described before, what is the distance from the cornea vertex to the retina
Answer:
The distance from the cornea vertex to the retina is 2.36 cm
Explanation:
The question is incomplete.
The complete question is as follows;
A Nearsighted Eye. A certain very nearsighted person cannot focus on anything farther than 36.0 cm from the eye. Consider the simplified model of the eye. In a simplified model of the human eye, the aqueous and vitreous humors and the lens all have a refractive index of 1.40, and all the refraction occurs at the cornea, whose vertex is 2.60 cm from the retina.
If the radius of curvature of the cornea is 0.65 cm when the eye is focusing on an object 36.0 cm from the cornea vertex and the indexes of refraction are as described before, what is the distance from the cornea vertex to the retina?
Solution.
We use image-object reaction to calculate the distance from the cornea vertex to the retina.
Mathematically;
n1/s + n2/s’ = n2-n1/R
From the question, we identify the following;
n1 ; Refractive index of air = 1
n2 ; Refractive index of lens = 1.4
S ; Object Distance = 36 cm
S’ = ?
R ; Radius of curvature of the cornea = 0.65
Substituting these values into the equation above;
1/36 + 1.4/S’ = (1.4-1)/0.65
{S’+ 36(1.4)}/36S’ = 0.4/0.65
{S’ + 50.4}/36S’ = 0.62
S’ + 50.4 = 22.32S’
50.4 = 22.32S’ -S’
21.32S’ = 50.4
S’ = 50.4/21.32
S’ = 2.36 cm

can a body be in equilibrium if only one external force act on its ? explain
Answer:
Explanation:
If there is only 1 force, the body can never be in equilibrium, providing that the force is not zero (and that would hardly be a force. Zero is possible in math and it means something. It is debatable in physics).
You cannot think of a condition where something is stationary on planet earth and there are not 2 forces or more forces involved.
Think of something like a block of wood sitting on a table. It is not moving, we'll say. Gravity is holding it down, but what is pushing up on it?
The table is. There are 2 forces and they are equal in magnitude, but opposite in direction. That matters.
An ideal photo-diode of unit quantum efficiency, at room temperature, is illuminated with 8 mW of radiation at 0.65 µm wavelength. Calculate the current and voltage output when the detector is used in the photo-conductive and photovoltaic modes respectively. The reverse saturation current (Is) is 9 nA.
Answer:
I = 4.189 mA V = 0.338 V
Explanation:
In order to do this, we need to apply the following expression:
I = Is[exp^(qV/kT) - 1] (1)
However, as the junction of the diode is illuminated, the above expression changes to:
I = Iopt + Is[exp^(qV/kT) - 1] (2)
Now, as the shunt resistance becomes infinite while the current becomes zero, we can say that the leakage current is small, and so:
I ≅ Iopt
Therefore:
I ≅ I₀Aλq / hc (3)
Where:
I₀A = Area of diode (radiation)
λ: wavelength
q: electron charge (1.6x10⁻¹⁹ C)
h: Planck constant (6.62x10⁻³⁴ m² kg/s)
c: speed of light (3x10⁸ m/s)
Replacing all these values, we can get the current:
I = (8x10⁻³) * (0.65x10⁻⁶) * (1.6x10⁻¹⁹) / (6.62x10⁻³⁴) * (3x10⁸)
I = 4.189x10⁻³ A or 4.189 mA
Now that we have the current, we just need to replace this value into the expression (2) and solve for the voltage:
I = Is[exp^(qV/kT) - 1]
k: boltzman constant (1.38x10⁻²³ J/K)
4.189x10⁻³ = 9x10⁻⁹ [exp(1.6x10⁻¹⁹ V / 1.38x10⁻²³ * 300) - 1]
4.189x10⁻³ / 9x10⁻⁹ = [exp(38.65V) - 1]
465,444.44 + 1 = exp(38.65V)
ln(465,445.44) = 38.65V

Proposed Exercise - Mass Center of a Composite Body Determine the coordinates (x, y) of the center of mass of the body illustrated in the picture below
Answer:
x = 3.76 cm
y = 3.76 cm
Explanation:
This composite shape can be modeled as a square (7.2 cm × 7.2 cm) minus a quarter circle in the lower left corner (3.6 cm radius) and a right triangle in the upper right corner (3.6 cm × 3.6 cm).
The centroid of a square (or any rectangle) is at x = b/2 and y = h/2.
The centroid of a quarter circle is at x = y = 4r/(3π).
The centroid of a right triangle is at x = b/3 and y = h/3.
Build a table listing each shape, the coordinates of its centroid (x and y), and its area (A). Use negative areas for the shapes that are being subtracted.
Next, multiply each coordinate by the area (Ax and Ay), sum the results (∑Ax and ∑Ay), then divide by the total area (∑Ax / ∑A and ∑Ay / ∑A). The result will be the x and y coordinates of the center of mass.

Now consider a different electromagnetic wave, also described by: Ex(z,t) = Eocos(kz - ω t + φ) In this equation, k = 2π/λ is the wavenumber and ω = 2π f is the angular frequency. In this case, though, assume φ = +30o and Eo = 1 kV/m. What is the value of Ex(z,t) when z/λ = 0.25 and ft = 0.125?
Answer:
Explanation:
Ex(z,t) = Eocos(kz - ω t + φ)
k = 2π/λ , ω = 2π f
φ = +30° , E₀ = 10³ V .
z/λ = 0.25 , ft = 0.125
Ex(z,t) = Eocos(2πz/λ - 2πf t + φ)
Putting the values given above
Ex(z,t) = 10³ cos ( 2π / 4 - 2π x .125 + 30⁰ )
= 1000cos (90⁰ - 45+30)
= 1000 cos 75
=258.8 V .

If the strength of the applied field is known to be 20 T plus or minus 3 T, which of the following correctly describes the uncertainty in the INVERSE frequency (1/frequency)?
A. 3/2000s
B. 3/5s
C. 1/15s
D. 1/4
Complete Question
The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image
Answer:
The uncertainty in inverse frequency is [tex]\Delta [\frac{1}{w} ]= \frac{3}{2000} \ s[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The value of the proportionality constant is [tex]k = 5 \frac{Hz }{T}[/tex]
The strength of the magnetic field is [tex]B = 20 \ T[/tex]
The change in this strength of magnetic field is [tex]\Delta B = 3 \ T[/tex]
The magnetic field is given as
[tex]B = \frac{k}{\frac{1}{w} }[/tex]
Where [tex]w[/tex] is frequency
The uncertainty or error of the field is given as
[tex]\Delta B = \frac{k }{[\frac{1}{w}^]^2 } \Delta [\frac{1}{w} ][/tex]
The uncertainty in inverse frequency is given as
[tex]\Delta [\frac{1}{w} ] = \frac{\Delta B}{k [\frac{1}{w^2} ]}[/tex]
[tex]\Delta [\frac{1}{w} ]= \frac{\Delta B}{k (B)^2 }[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]\Delta [\frac{1}{w} ]= \frac{3}{5 (20)^2 }[/tex]
[tex]\Delta [\frac{1}{w} ]= \frac{3}{2000} \ s[/tex]
A bus travelling at a speed of 40 kmph reaches its destination in 8 minutes and 15 seconds. How far is the destination? a. 5.43 km b. 5.44 km c. 5.50 km d. 9.06 km
Answer:
c. 5.50 km
Explanation:
8 min * 1h/(60 min) = 8/60 = 2/15 h
15 sec* 1 min/60 sec = 1/4 min * 1h/(60 min) = 1/240 h
8 min 15 sec = (2/15+1/240)h
40 km/h *(2/15 +1/240)h =5.50 km
Answer: 5.50 km
