AI Thread Summary
To calculate the travel time for a horse from Manila to Baguio, which is 500 km away, the horse's speed of 12 km per hour is used. The formula for time is t = d/v, where d is distance and v is speed. Substituting the values, the time required is approximately 41.66 hours. Clarifications were made regarding the expression of speed as "12 km per hour." The discussion emphasizes the importance of correctly applying the formula to determine travel time.

Every horse travels 12 km every hour, how long will it take to travel from manila to baguio which is 500 km away?

How will i write every hour? I am confused, is is 60 minutes? Ty in advance

Is it *
 
"12 km every hour" = "12 km per hour" = 12 km/hr.
 
Here the speed of horse is 12 km/hr.
Speed = distance / time
Just substitute the values in the above equation to get the time required.
 
Thank you very much :)
 
Isnt it t=d/v ? Cause its asking how long will it take to travel... I am kinda confused i solve it and i got 41.66hr hehe :)

TL;DR Summary: I would like to know the voltmeter readings on the two resistors separately in the picture in the following cases , When one of the keys is closed When both of them are opened (Knowing that the battery has negligible internal resistance) My thoughts for the first case , one of them must be 12 volt while the other is 0 The second case we'll I think both voltmeter readings should be 12 volt since they are both parallel to the battery and they involve the key within what the...

Thread 'Correct statement about a reservoir with an outlet pipe'

The answer to this question is statements (ii) and (iv) are correct. (i) This is FALSE because the speed of water in the tap is greater than speed at the water surface (ii) I don't even understand this statement. What does the "seal" part have to do with water flowing out? Won't the water still flow out through the tap until the tank is empty whether the reservoir is sealed or not? (iii) In my opinion, this statement would be correct. Increasing the gravitational potential energy of the...
