Chapter 15, Problem 2AP
A swimmer crossing a river proceeds at an absolute speed of 2.5 m/s on a course oriented at a 45° angle to the 1-m/s current. Given that the absolute velocity of the swimmer is equal to the

why is the maximum velocity in the michaeli's equation not touching the rectangular hyperbolic curve
The “mean-speed theorem” for calculating average velocity under constant acceleration, developed by Thomas Bradwardine and the Mertonian Calculators at Oxford University, is expressed algebraically as:
density = weight/volume
(m1)(v1) = (m2)(v2)
C. (vm) = 1/2 (v0 + vf)
s = (v0)(t) + 1/2 (a)(t2)
velocity = distance/time
From the equation of a lineweaver-burke plot, calculate Km and Vmax. Show your work and include units. The equation is y=393.4x +8.4337
