Can a average velocity be zero.Why? ​

Physics
1 answer:
marishachu [46]2 years ago
4 0

<u>Answer:</u>

Yes

<u>Explanation:</u>

Average velocity is the ratio of total displacement and time taken for that displacement:

average \space\ velocity = \frac{displacement}{time}

This means if displacement is zero, then average velocity will also be zero.

Displacement is zero when an object moves some distance in one direction, and then moves the same distance but in the opposite direction.

∴ As it is possible for displacement to be zero, it is also possible for average velocity to be zero.

A gas has a pressure of 48atm in a 15.5L container. It was found that at 25∘C the gas occupied a volume of 25L and had a pressur
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

130.165636364°C

Explanation:

P = Pressure

V = Volume

n = Number of moles

R = Gas constant = 0.082 L atm/mol K

From ideal gas law we have

PV=nRT\\\Rightarrow n=\dfrac{PV}{RT}\\\Rightarrow n=\dfrac{22\times 25}{0.082\times (25+273.15)}\\\Rightarrow n=22.496451696\ moles

PV=nRT\\\Rightarrow T=\dfrac{PV}{nR}\\\Rightarrow T=\dfrac{48\times 15.5}{22.496451696\times 0.082}\\\Rightarrow T=403.315636364\ K

The initial temperature is 403.315636364-273.15=130.165636364\ ^{\circ}C

What is one way that continental rifts are similar to mid-ocean ridges and what is one that they are different?
adell [148]

Explanation:

Continental rifts and mid-ocean ridges are both features of a divergent plate margin.

In both cases plates are moving away from one another. Therefore they are creating new land masses.

  • A continental drift like the east African rift valley is where a continent begins to pull apart or diverges.
  • A mid-ocean ridge is divergent margin in the ocean.

They are different in that, continental rift occurs within the continental plate that are on land.

But:

 Mid-ocean ridges are in the oceanic crust in the ocean . They form the largest physiographic structure on the earth surface called the mid-ocean ridge.

A girl and a boy are riding on a merry go round that is turning at a constant rate. The girl is near the outer edge, and the boy
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

The girl has greater tangential acceleration

Explanation:

The angular acceleration (\alpha) of the merry go round is equal to the rate of the change of the angular velocity, \omega:

\alpha = \frac{d\omega}{dt}

Since all the points of the merry go round complete 1 circle in the same time, the angular velocity of each point of the merry go round is the same, and so all the points also have the same angular acceleration.

The tangential acceleration instead is given by

a_t = \alpha r

where

\alpha is the angular acceleration

r is the distance from the centre of the merry go round

Since the girl is near the outer edge and the boy is closer to the centre, the value of r for the girl is larger than for the boy, so the girl has greater tangential acceleration.
