(a) The average speed must you have for the second half of the trip to meet your goal is 8 km/h.

(b) The value obtained (8 km/h) is not reasonable for the second half of the distance since the first half is 48km/h.

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

Average velocity is defined as the change in position or displacement (∆x) divided by the time intervals (∆t) in which the displacement occurs.

average velocity = total distance / total time

v = (d)/(0.5d/v₁ + 0.5d/v₂)

where;

v is the average velocity
v₁ is the average velocity during the first half
v₂ is the average velocity during the second half

90 km/h = (d) / (0.5d/48 + 0.5d/v₂)

90(0.5d/48 + 0.5d/v₂) = d

0.9375d + 0.5d/v₂ = d

d(0.9375 + 0.5/v₂) = d

0.9375 + 0.5/v₂ = 1

0.5/v₂ = 0.0625

v₂ = 0.5/0.0625

v₂ = 8 km/h

Thus, the average speed must you have for the second half of the trip to meet your goal is 8 km/h.

The value obtained (8 km/h) is not reasonable for the second half of the distance since the first half is 48km/h.

azamat

Answer:

Wheel A.

Explanation:

The lesser the moment of inertia, the greater the angular acceleration. Then, the moments of inertia of each wheel are described below:

Wheel A

$I_{A} = M\cdot R^{2}$

Wheel B

$I_{B} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot M \cdot (2\cdot R)^{2}$

$I_{B} = 2\cdot M\cdot R^{2}$

The wheel A accelerates faster in response to the torque.

A boat is drifting with a speed of 5.0\,\dfrac{\text m}{\text s}5.0 s m 5, point, 0, space, start fraction, m, divided by, s,

zepelin [54]

Answer:

$d=42m(-\hat{i})$

Explanation:

For this problem, we need to apply the formulas of constant accelerated motion.

To obtain the boat displacement we need to calculate the displacement because of the river flow and the displacement done because of the boat motor.

for the river:

$d_r=v*t\\d_r=5m/s*6s\\d_r=30m(\hat{i})$

for the boat:

$x=\frac{1}{2}*a*t^2\\\\x=\frac{1}{2}*4.0m/s*(6s)^2\\\\\\x=72m(-\hat{i})$

So the final displacement is given by:

$d=dr+x\\d=30m-72m\\d=42m(-\hat{i})$

If the speed of sound in air is 343 m/s and the wavelength of this note is 2.62 m, what is the frequency of this C3 note? (Round

snow_lady [41]

Answer:

The frequency of of the note = 131 Hz.

Explanation:

Frequency: Frequency can be defined as the number of complete oscillation completed by a wave in one seconds. The S.I unit of frequency is Hertz ( Hz)

v = λf ............................ Equation 1

Making f the subject of the equation,

f = v/λ .......................... Equation 2

Where v = Speed, λ = wavelength, f = frequency

Given: v = 343 m/s, λ = 2.62 m.

Substituting these values into equation 2

f = 343/2.62

f = 131 Hz

Thus the frequency of of the note = 131 Hz.
