Hannah walks 0.30 km to class in 5.0 min. what is her average speed in m/s?

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

1.0 m/s

Explanation:

First, convert to SI units.

0.30 km × (1000 m / km) = 300 m

5.0 min × (60 s / min) = 300 s

Speed is distance divided by time:

300 m / 300 s = 1.0 m/s

An unstable particle at rest breaks up into two fragments of unequal mass. The mass of the lighter fragment is equal to 2.90 ✕ 1

motikmotik

Answer:

The speed of the heavier fragment is 0.335c.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the lighter fragment $M_{l}=2.90\times10^{-28}\ kg$

Mass of the heavier fragment $M_{h}=1.62\times10^{-27}\ Kg$

Speed of lighter fragment = 0.893c

We need to calculate the speed of the heavier fragment

Let v is the speed of the second fragment after decay

Using conservation of relativistic momentum

$0=\drac{m_{1}v_{1}}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v_{1}^2}{c^2}}}-\drac{m_{2}v_{2}}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v_{1}^2}{c^2}}}$

$\drac{m_{1}v_{1}}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v_{1}^2}{c^2}}}=\drac{m_{2}v_{2}}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v_{1}^2}{c^2}}}$

$\dfrac{2.90\times10^{-28}\times0.893c}{\sqrt{1-(0.893)^2}}=\dfrac{1.62\times10^{-27}v_{2}}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v_{2}^2}{c^2}}}$

$\dfrac{v_{2}}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v_{2}^2}{c^2}}}=\dfrac{2.90\times10^{-28}\times0.893c}{1.62\times10^{-27}\times0.45}$

$\dfrac{v_{2}}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v_{2}^2}{c^2}}}=0.355c$

$\dfrac{v_{2}}{1-\dfrac{v_{2}^{2}}{c^2}}=(0.355c)^2$

$\dfrac{1-\dfrac{v_{2}^2}{c^2}}{v_{2}^2}=\dfrac{1}{(0.355c)}$

$\dfrac{1}{v_{2}^2}-\dfrac{1}{c^2}=\dfrac{1}{(0.355c)^2}$

$\dfrac{1}{v_{2}^2}=\dfrac{1}{c^2}+\dfrac{1}{0.126c^2}$

$\dfrac{1}{v_{2}^2}=\dfrac{1}{c^2}(1+\dfrac{1}{0.126})$

$\dfrac{1}{v_{2}^2}=\dfrac{8.93}{c^2}$

$v_{2}^2=\dfrac{c^2}{8.93}$

$v_{2}=0.335c$

Hence, The speed of the heavier fragment is 0.335c.

Assume that the physics instructor would like to have normal visual acuity from 21 cm out to infinity and that his bifocals rest

shutvik [7]

This is note the complete question, the complete question is:

One of the lousy things about getting old (prepare yourself!) is that you can be both near-sighted and farsighted at once. Some original defect in the lens of your eye may cause you to only be able to focus on some objects a limited distance away (near-sighted). At the same time, as you age, the lens of your eye becomes more rigid and less able to change its shape. This will stop you from being able to focus on objects that are too close to your eye (far-sighted). Correcting both of these problems at once can be done by using bi-focals, or by placing two lenses in the same set of frames. An old physicist instructor can only focus on objects that lie at distance between 0.47 meters and 5.4 meters.

Assume that the physics instructor would like to have normal visual acuity from 21 cm out to infinity and that his bifocals rest 2.0 cm from his eye. What is the refractive power of the portion of the lense that will correct the instructors nearsightedness?

Answer: 3.04 D

Explanation:

when an object is held 21 cm away from the instructor's eyes, the spectacle lens must produce 0.47m ( the near point) away.

An image of 0.47m from the eye will be ( 47 - 2 )

i.e 45 cm from the spectacle lens since the spectacle lens is 2cm away from the eye.

Also, the image distance will become negative

gap between lense and eye = 2cm

Therefore;

image distance d₁ = - 45cm = - 0.45m

object distance d₀ = 21 - 2 = 19cm = 0.19m

P = 1/f = 1/ d = 1/d₀ + 1/d₁ = 1/0.19 + (-1/0.45)

P = 1/f = 5.26315789 - 2.22222222

P = 1/f = 3.04093567 ≈ 3.04 D

At what height h above the ground does the projectile have a speed of 0.5v?

dedylja [7]

Answer:height above ground at which projectile have velocity

0.5v is (0.0375v^2)

Explanation:

Using Vf = Vi - gt

Where Vf is final velocity

Vi is initial velocity

g is the acceleration due to gravity

t is the time taken

So, 0.5v = v - gt

t = 0.05v

Therefore height h = vt - 0.5gt^2

Subtitute t

h = 0.05v^2 - 0.0125v^2

h = 0.0375v^2

A driver sets out on a journey. for the first half of the distance she drives at the leisurely pace of 30 mi/h; during the secon

Gemiola [76]

The average speed of a moving object is the rate of change of a certain distance with respect with time. It is equal to the total distance that was traveled by the object over the total time it takes to travel that distance. For this problem we need to assume that the total distance that was traveled would be equal to 120 miles. So, for the first half of the distance or 60 miles at a speed of 30 miles per hour, the time taken would be two hours. For the remaining 60 miles at a speed of 60 miles per hour, 1 hour is total time traveled. So, we calculate the average speed as follows:

Average speed = total distance / total time
Average speed = 120 miles / 2 hr + 1 hr
Average speed = 40 mi / hr
