The minimum average speed it must have in the second half of the event in order to qualify is 414.7 km/h.

<h3>What is average speed?</h3>

The average speed of an object is the ratio of total distance traveled by the object to the total time of motion of the object.

<h3>Total time taken by the car during the entire race</h3>

time = distance/average speed

time = (1.41 km) / (278 km/h)

time = 0.0051 hr

The car travels the first half of the race, d (¹/₂ x 1410 m) at 210 km/h;

d = 705 m = 0.705 km

t1 = 0.705/210

t1 = 0.0034 hr

<h3>time for the second half</h3>

t2 = 0.0051 - 0.0034 hr

t2 = 0.0017 hr

<h3>minimum average speed of the second half</h3>

v = d/t

v = 0.705 km / 0.0017 hr

v = 414.7 km/hr

Thus, the minimum average speed it must have in the second half of the event in order to qualify is 414.7 km/h.

An object is moving to the west at a constant speed. three forces are exerted on the object. one force is 10 n directed due nort
SVETLANKA909090 [29]
If we want the object to continue to move at constant speed, it means that the resultant of the forces acting on the object must be zero. So far, we have:
- force F1 with direction north, of 10 N
- force F2 with direction west, of 10 N
The third force must balance them, in order to have a net force of zero on the object.

The resultant of the two forces F1 and F2 is
F_{12} =  \sqrt{F_1^2+F_2^2}= \sqrt{(10 N)^2+(10 N)^2}= \sqrt{200}=14.1 N
with direction at 45^{\circ} north-west. This means that F3 must be equal and opposite to this force: so, F3 must have magnitude 14.1 N and its direction should be 45^{\circ} south-east.

Which of the following usually occurs with a short circuit? a. All parts of the circuit will begin to carry higher amounts of cu
fgiga [73]

Answer:

Hi,

The correct answer option is; D. Most of the current will flow through one part of the circuit.

Explanation:

A short circuit is a low resistance path in an electric connection between two conductors supplying current in a circuit.

It happens when excess amounts of current flow in the power source through a 'short path'.

Short circuits occur at very high temperatures which is of course caused by the heat produced during dissipation.

An example of application of short circuit is arc welding, where heating is achieved through short circuit.

Two mechanical waves that have positive displacements from the equilibrium position meet and coincide. What kind of
erica [24]

When two mechanical waves that have positive displacements from the equilibrium position meet and coincide, a constructive interference occurs.

Option A

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Considering the principle of superposition of waves; the resultant amplitude of an output wave due to interference of two or more waves at any point is given by individual addition of their amplitudes at that point. Two waves with positive displacements refer to the fact that crest of the both the waves are on the same side of displacement axis, either both are positive or both are negative, similarly with their troughs.

If such two waves with their crest on crest meet at any point, by superposition principle. their individual amplitude gets added up and hence the resultant wave after interference is greater in amplitude that both the individual waves. This is termed as a constructive interference. Destructive interference on the other hand is a condition when one of the two waves has a positive displacement and other has a negative displacement (a condition of one’s crest on other’s trough); resulting in amplitude subtraction.

Lesechka [4]

Answer:4.21 \times 10^{-10} J/cm^4

1 kPa= 10^3 Pa

1 km=10^5 cm

1kPa/km=0.01 Pa/cm

1kPa/km=10^{-8} J/cm^4

\Rightarrow r= 0.0421 kPa/km= 0.0421 kPa/km \times \frac{10^{-8} J/cm^4}{1 kPa/km}= 0.0421 \times 10^{-8}J/cm^4=4.21 \times 10^{-10} J/cm^4
