If it takes 42 minutes to load 3 1/2 trucks, how many minutes will it take to load 6 1/2 trucks?

Question

Miss Alice Doyle · Accepted Answer

If it takes 42 minutes to load 3 1/2 trucks, then it takes 42 / 3.5 = 12 minutes to load a single truck. Multiplying the number of minutes per truck by 6.5 yields the time it will take to load. In this case 12 x 6.5 = 78 minutes would be required to load 6 1/2 trucks. The formula for the time taken is t = 12n, where t is the time in minutes and n is the number of trucks.

air exerts forces on falling objects near earth’s surface.explanation: the term ‘free falls’ refer to object that are falling towards the earth, in a situation in which gravity is the only force acting on the object. for an object in free fall, the acceleration is constant (g, the gravitational acceleration), and so the velocity of the object constantly increases.for objects near earth’s surface, there is always another force acting on the object: the resistance due to the air. this force is opposed to the direction of fall of the object, and it is proportional to the velocity of the object, so as the object falls down, this force increases up to a point when it balances the force of gravity, and the object continues its motion at constant velocity (called terminal velocity). since in this case gravity is not the only force acting on the object, we are not in a situation of free fall.
