A student is given a box containing ten similar plastic drinking straws, a 30 cm ruler and two set-squares. (a) Explain how the
1 answer:
The way to perform the experiment is illustrated below.
<h3>How to perform the experiment?</h3>Place each straw tightly without deforming the roundness of the straw into the corner of the set square.
Measure the distance from the corner of the set square to where the straw touches the set square using the 30 cm ruler. This will be the radius of each straw.
Multiply this radius by 2 in order to obtain the diameter of each straw.
Sum the diameter of each of the 10 straws.
Divide this sum by 10 to obtain the average value for the diameter of a straw.

Answer:
17.64 km/h
Explanation:
mass of car, m = 1000 kg
Kinetic energy of car, K = 1.2 x 10^4 J
Let the speed of car is v.
Use the formula for kinetic energy.
By substituting the values
v = 4.9 m/s
Now convert metre per second into km / h
We know that
1 km = 1000 m
1 h = 3600 second
So,
v = 17.64 km/h
Thus, the reading of speedometer is 17.64 km/h.
