F = M A

A = F / M

F = (25west + 15east) = (25 - 15) west = 10 west

A = (10 west) / 10 = 1 m/s2west

2 trains 50 miles toward each other bird?

This is a classic math problemThe question goes something like this:Two trains are travelling toward each other, one at 10 miles an hour travelling east, the other at 15 miles an hour travelling west, and they are 50 miles apart. A bird is flying at 45 miles an hour, that starts with the eastward train and also heads east, when it reaches the westward headed train it heads back to the other train until it reaches it, then turns around again until it reaches the first train and so on, until the point in time the trains meet. The question then asks, how far does the bird travel before the trains meet?The Answer:This is ultimately a trick question. All the different speeds and distances are there to confuse you, it is actually a question about time. You simply first find how long it takes the trains to meet. In this case, where they are 50 miles apart and moving together, their total speed to cover the 50 miles is 25 miles/hour. Thus it takes 50/25=2 hours for the trains to meet. We know the bird is travelling at 45 m/hr this entire time so we calculate 45x2=90 miles travelled during this time period. This is all the question is asking, we do not have to find out how many times the bird goes back and forth or anything else of that nature.


What is quadrantal triangle in spherical trigonometry?

It's an equilateral triangle whose legs are all 90-degree arcs. Here's a quadrantal triangle on the earth: -- Start at the north Pole. -- Draw the first side, down along the north 1/2 of the Prime Meridian to the equator. -- Draw the second side westward along the equator, to 90 degrees west longitude. -- Draw the third side straight north, back up to the north Pole. Each side of the triangle is 90 degrees, each interior angle is also 90 degrees, and the sum of its interior angles is 270 degrees. Pretty weird.

In Genesis 28:13,14: And, behold, the Lord stood beside him (Jacob), and said: 'I am the Lord, the God of Abraham your (grand)father, and the God of Isaac. The land on which you are laying, to you I will give it, and to your seed...and you shall spread to the west, east, north, and south.'Genesis 35:9-12 And God appeared unto Jacob...and He called his name Israel...And God said unto him...'the land which I gave unto Abraham and Isaac, to you I will give it, and to your seed.'Genesis 50:24 And Joseph said unto his brothers (in Egypt): 'I am dying; but God will surely remember you, and bring you...unto the land which He swore to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.'Exodus 3:7,8 And the Lord said (to Moses): 'I have seen the affliction of My people in Egypt, and ... I am come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them up out of that land unto a good land...unto the place of the Canaanites'...Exodus 6:6-8 Say unto the children of Israel: 'I am the Lord, and I will bring you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians...And I will bring you in to the land, concerning which I lifted up My hand to give it to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob; and I will give it you for an inheritance.'Numbers 33:51-54 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say....'unto you I have given the land to possess it; and you shall inherit the land'...Deuteronomy 1:6-8 The Lord our God spoke unto us in Horeb (Sinai), saying....'Behold, I have set the land before you: go in and possess the land which the Lord swore unto your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give unto them and to their seed after them.'See also:Facts about Israel (and the links at the end of the Answer)The conflict over Israel (and the links there too)What a Muslim scholar says


Is Gaza mentioned in the Bible?

In the King James version the word - Gazathites - appears once Jos 13:3 From Sihor, which is before Egypt, even unto the borders of Ekron northward, which is counted to the Canaanite: five lords of the Philistines; the Gazathites, and the Ashdothites, the Eshkalonites, the Gittites, and the Ekronites; also the Avites: the word - Gaza - appears 19 times # Gen 10:19 And the border of the Canaanites was from Sidon, as thou comest to Gerar, unto Gaza; as thou goest, unto Sodom, and Gomorrah, and Admah, and Zeboim, even unto Lasha. # Jos 10:41 And Joshua smote them from Kadeshbarnea even unto Gaza, and all the country of Goshen, even unto Gibeon. # Jos 11:22 There was none of the Anakims left in the land of the children of Israel: only in Gaza, in Gath, and in Ashdod, there remained. # Jos 15:47 Ashdod with her towns and her villages, Gaza with her towns and her villages, unto the river of Egypt, and the great sea, and the border thereof: # Jud 1:18 Also Judah took Gaza with the coast thereof, and Askelon with the coast thereof, and Ekron with the coast thereof. # Jud 6:4 And they encamped against them, and destroyed the increase of the earth, till thou come unto Gaza, and left no sustenance for Israel, neither sheep, nor ox, nor ass. # Jud 16:1 Then went Samson to Gaza, and saw there an harlot, and went in unto her. # Jud 16:21 But the Philistines took him, and put out his eyes, and brought him down to Gaza, and bound him with fetters of brass; and he did grind in the prison house. # 1 Sam 6:17 And these are the golden emerods which the Philistines returned for a trespass offering unto the LORD; for Ashdod one, for Gaza one, for Askelon one, for Gath one, for Ekron one; # 2 Kin 18:8 He smote the Philistines, even unto Gaza, and the borders thereof, from the tower of the watchmen to the fenced city. # 1 Chr 7:28 And their possessions and habitations were, Bethel and the towns thereof, and eastward Naaran, and westward Gezer, with the towns thereof; Shechem also and the towns thereof, unto Gaza and the towns thereof: # Jer 47:1 The word of the LORD that came to Jeremiah the prophet against the Philistines, before that Pharaoh smote Gaza. # Jer 47:5 Baldness is come upon Gaza; Ashkelon is cut off with the remnant of their valley: how long wilt thou cut thyself? # Amo 1:6 Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Gaza, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they carried away captive the whole captivity, to deliver them up to Edom: # Amo 1:7 But I will send a fire on the wall of Gaza, which shall devour the palaces thereof: # Zep 2:4 For Gaza shall be forsaken, and Ashkelon a desolation: they shall drive out Ashdod at the noon day, and Ekron shall be rooted up. # Zec 9:5 Ashkelon shall see it, and fear; Gaza also shall see it, and be very sorrowful, and Ekron; for her expectation shall be ashamed; and the king shall perish from Gaza, and Ashkelon shall not be inhabited. # Act 8:26 And the angel of the Lord spake unto Philip, saying, Arise, and go toward the south unto the way that goeth down from Jerusalem unto Gaza, which is desert.

Why does Minnesota have the Northwest Angle?

An important component of the the Treaty of Paris between the U.S. and Great Britain after the Revolutionary War was its defining of the northern boundary of the new United States, westward to the Mississippi River. It's language defined the western-most part of that border as running "...through the Lake of the Woods to the northwestern most point thereof, and from thence on a due west course to the river Mississippi..." The problem, however, was the incorrect assumption at the time (as illustrated on some significant maps of the day) that the Mississippi extended that far north and west, versus its source being Lake Itasca in north central Minnesota, approximately a hundred miles south of Lake of the Woods. After the Louisiana Purchase from France in 1803, the U.S. owned substantial land west of the Mississippi, and the Convention of 1818 (or Treaty of 1818) in part established the northern border for that new U.S. territory. The U.S. and the British agreed to define the new border, from where the old one left off (at the northwestern most point of Lake of the Woods), as the 49th parallel, west to the Rocky Mountains. Thus, that sudden drop in the border along the western edge of Lake of the Wood can simply be thought of as a correction line, one that connects the old border to the east, as defined by the Treaty of Paris in 1783, to the new border along the 49th parallel to the west, as defined by the Treaty of 1818 - thereby creating the "notch" at the top of state. Minnesota's Northwest Angle then is that section of land separated by water from the rest of the state/country but still within the borders dictated by the combination of those two treaties.

What is an example of a car traveling eastward and it acceleration be westward?

If it is braking while travelling eastward it is accelerating westward


If a car is traveling eastward can its acceleration be westward?

Yes. If you are traveling eastward but slowing down, your acceleration would be westward.


Can an object have an eastward velocity while experiencing a westward accelerations?

The answer is yes and no.Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity. Velocity is speed plus direction.If an object is travelling eastward and slowing down in a straight line then its velocity is decreasing, it is still travelling eastward. However the force slowing the object is a westward force.A reducing acceleration (slowing down) is most often called a deceleration or negative acceleration. So you have a negative eastward acceleration.


What is the antonym for eastwards?

How Can a body moving with certain velocity in the direction of east have acceleration in the direction of west?

velocity is a vector quantity and also acceleration is a vector quantity. Suppose my automobile is travelling in north direction and I apply brakes to it then until the automobile stops it will move in north direction while the acceleration will act in south direction as brakes are applied.

Why do the stars appear to move slowly westward at night?

The earth is constantly moving eastward, so the stars appear to move westward. This is an optical illusion that is supported by Newton's 3rd Law (every action has an equal and opposite reaction).
