This question involves the concepts of average speed, distance, and time.

The average speed of the family is "2.5 mi/hr".

<h3>AVERAGE SPEED</h3>

The average speed is defined as the ratio of the total distance covered with the total time taken to cover it.

v=\frac{s}{t}

where,

  • s = distance covered = 2.5 miles
  • t = total time taken = 1 hour
  • v = average speed = ?

Therefore,

v=\frac{2.5\ mi}{1\ hr}

v = 2.5 mi/hr

1. A base-ball of mass 0.3kg approaches the bat at a speed of 30 miles/hour and when the ball hits the bat for 0.5 s, it started
andre [41]

Answer:

I = 27kg.mi/h

Explanation:

In order to calculate the impulse of the ball, you use the following formula:

I=m\Delta v  =m(v-v_o)      (1)

m: mass of the ball = 0.3kg

v: speed of the ball after the bat hit it = 60mi/h

vo: speed of the ball before the bat hit it = 30mi/h

You replace the values of all parameters in the equation (1):

I=(0.3kg)(60mi/h-(-30mi/h))=27kg\frac{mi}{h}

where the minus sign of the initial velocity means that the motion of the ball is opposite to the final direction of such a motion.

The imulpse of the ball is 27 kg.miles/hour

For an object moving with constant negative acceleration, draw the following:
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

Kindly find the graphs attached

Explanation:

For figure 1: There is a steady increase in the position of the object as time increases. This is because despite the negative acceleration (deceleration), the object continues to move and cover more ground as time goes by.

<em>The straight line graph is observed because the acceleration is constant  and not varying.</em>

For Figure 2: The graph of velocity vs time will have an inverted nature. This is because since the object is decelerating, it is reducing in its velocity as time goes by (increases). <em>This is also in a straight line since the deceleration is constant.</em>

A cannon ball launched horizontally with a speed of 20m/s and a baseball dropped off a cliff and it accelerates at a rate of 10m
miskamm [114]
If they both start from the same height, then they both hit the ground at the
same time.  It makes no difference if their horizontal speeds aren't equal.
The cannon ball still accelerates downward at the same rate as the baseball.
