When a  woman walks south at a speed of 2.0mph for 60 minutes. She then turns around and walks north at a distance of 3000m in 25 minutes. then the woman's average speed during her entire motion would be  73.15 meters /minute.

<h3>What is speed?</h3>

The total distance covered by any object per unit of time is known as speed.

the mathematical expression for speed is given by

speed = total; distance /total time

As given in the problem a woman walks south at a speed of 2.0mph for 60 minutes

60 min = 1 hour

1 mile = 1.60934 km

The distance covered by her southwards  =  speed ×time

                                                                      =2 mph × 60 minutes

                                                                      = 3.218 km

She then turns around and walks north at a distance of 3000m in 25 minutes

The distance covered northward is 3000m

speed = total distance /total time

          =(3218 +3000) /(60+25)

          =73.15 meters /minutes

Thus, The average speed of the woman would be 73.15 meters /minute.

Which variety of moth, C or Y, is more likely to be killed by insect eating birds?
Svetlanka [38]
Moth X is more likely to be eaten by insect killing birds first. This is because Moth Y blends in with the tree trunk more and is hidden from birds. Its wings camouflage with the tree trunk, hiding it from sight.

A 1500 kg car traveling at 15.0 m/s to the south collides with a 4500 kg truck that is at rest at a stopligt. The car comes to a
Burka [1]

Answer:

5 m/s, moving to the South.

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Mass of car, m = 1500 kg

Initial velocity of car, u = 15 m/s

Mass of truck, M = 4500 kg

Initial velocity of truck, v = 0 m/s (Truck is at rest)

Final velocity of car, U = 0 m/s (Car comes to a stop)

Final velocity of truck = V

Because the collision is elastic, we can apply the principle of conservation of momentum, we have that:

Total initial momentum = Total final momentum

m*u + M*U = m*v + M*V

(1500 * 15) + (4500 * 0) = (1500 * 0) + (4500 * V)

22500 + 0 = 0 + 00V

=> V = 22500/4500

V = 5 m/s

The velocity carries a positive sign, hence, it's moving in the same direction as the car was moving initially.

That is, it's moving to the South.

If the period of the pendulum is tripled, what is the length of the string increased by?
Nitella [24]
The period of the pendulum doesn't determine the length of the string. 
It's the other way around.

The period of the pendulum is proportional to the square root of its length.
So if you want to triple the period, you have to make the string nine times
as long as it is now.
