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 +27 nCnC point charge is placed at the origin, and a +6 nCnC charge is placed on the xx axis at x=1mx=1m. At what position on
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

The position on the x axis is 0.32 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Point charge = 27 nC

Charge = 6 nC

Distance = 1

We need to calculate the distance

Using formula of electric field

\dfrac{kq_{1}}{x^2}=\dfrac{kq_{2}}{(r-x)^2}

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{27\times10^{-9}}{x^2}=\dfrac{6\times10^{-9}}{(1-x)^2}

\dfrac{27}{x^2}=\dfrac{6}{(1-x)^2}

\dfrac{(1-x)^2}{x^2}=\dfrac{27}{6}

\dfrac{1-x}{x}=\sqrt{\dfrac{27}{6}}

\dfrac{1}{x}=\sqrt{\dfrac{27}{6}}+1

x=0.32\ m

Hence, The position on the x axis is 0.32 m.

An 8.0 cm object is 40.0 cm from a concave mirror that has a focal length of 10.0 cm. Its image is 16.0 cm in front of the mirro
svet-max [94.6K]
 We can rearrange the mirror equation before plugging our values in. 
1/p = 1/f - 1/q. 
1/p = 1/10cm - 1/40cm
1/p = 4/40cm - 1/40cm = 3/40cm
40cm=3p  <-- cross multiplication
13.33cm = p

Now that we have the value of p, we can plug it into the magnification equation.

M=-16/13.33=1.2
1.2=h'/8cm
9.6=h'

So the height of the image produced by the mirror is 9.6cm.

A catamaran with a mass of 5.44×10^3 kg is moving at 12 knots. How much work is required to increase the speed to 16 knots? (One
Andre45 [30]

The work that is required to increase the speed to 16 knots is 14,176.47 Joules

If a catamaran with a mass of 5.44×10^3 kg is moving at 12 knots, hence;

5.44×10^3 kg = 12 knots

For an increased speed to 16knots, we will have:

x = 16knots

Divide both expressions

\frac{5.44 \times 10^3}{x} = \frac{12}{16}\\12x = 16 \times 5.44 \times 10^3\\x = 7.23\times 10^3kg\\

To get the required work done, we will divide the mass by the speed of one knot to have:

w=\frac{7230}{0.51}\\w= 14,176.47Joules

Hence the work that is required to increase the speed to 16 knots is 14,176.47 Joules
