Average speed = (distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)

Average speed = (60 kilometers) / (4 hours)

Average speed = (60/4) kilometer/hour

Average speed = 15 km/hr

I need to speak with zuka

Alex787 [66]

Answer:

DMs are not accessible anymore. I assume Zuka is a staff member? the only way to talk to a staff member anymore is to report something, but even then, the probably won't even look at what they're deleting :/

May I have brainliest please? :)

Answer:

1,230N

Explanation:

1. Name of the variables:

$f:frequency\\\\ \omega:angular\text{ }speed\\\\ a_c:centripetal\text{ }acceleration\\\\ F_c:centripetal\text{ }force\\ \\ m:mass\\ \\ d:diameter\\ \\ r:radius\\ \\ g:gravitational\text{ }acceleration$

2. Formulae:

$f=\dfrac{number\text{ }of\text{ }revolutions}{time}$

$\omega=2\pi f$

$a_c=\omega^2 r$

$F_c=m\times a_c$

3. Solution (calculations)

$f=\dfrac{1}{1.65s}=0.\overline{60}s^{-1}$

$\omega=2\pi\times0.\overline{60}\approx 3.808rad/s$

$a_c=(3.808rad/s)^2\times (3.74/2m)=27.12m/s^2$

$F_c=45.2kg\times27.12m/s^2=1,225.67N\approx 1,230N$

Which explains the information needed to calculate speed and velocity?

Anestetic [448]

Both require time, but velocity requires displacement and speed requires distance.

Explanation:

Speed and velocity are two different quantities. In fact:

- Speed is a scalar quantity, which gives a measure of how fast an object is moving, regardless of its direction. Therefore, it only has a magnitude, which is given by the ratio between distance covered and time taken:

$s=\frac{distance}{time}$

Therefore, speed does not take into account the direction of motion.

- Velocity, on the other hand, is a vector quantity, so it has magnitude and a direction.

The magnitude of the velocity is given by

$v=\frac{displacement}{time}$

where displacement is a vector connecting the initial point with the final point of motion of an object.

The direction of the velocity corresponds to the direction of the displacement.

It must be noted also that in certain situations, the average velocity is zero, while the speed is not zero: for example, for an object completing a circle in a certain time interval, its speed is not zero, while its velocity is zero (because the object returns to the starting point, so the displacement is zero.

Therefore, the correct answer is

Both require time, but velocity requires displacement and speed requires distance.
