A car travels 98 miles in 1 hour and 45 minutes. what is the average speed?

1 answer:

4 0

Firstly let us get the time down to minutes from hours. Then the calculation will become easy.
1 hour and 45 minutes = (60 + 45) minutes
= 105 minutes
So
The distance traveled by the car in 105 minutes = 98 miles
Then
The distance traveled by the car in 60 minutes = (98/105) * 60 miles
= 5880/105 miles
= 56 miles
So the average speed of the car as can be seen from the above deduction is 56 miles per hour.

Suppose the original segment of wire is stretched to 10 times its original length. How much charge must be added to the wire to

Debora [2.8K]

Here we want to study how the linear charge density changes as we change the measures of our body.

We will find that we need to add 9*Q of charge to keep the linear charge density unchanged.

I will take two assumptions:

The charge is homogeneous, so the density is constant all along the wire.

As we work with a linear charge density we work in one dimension, so the wire "has no radius"

Originally, the wire has a charge Q and a length L.

The linear charge density will be given by:

λ = Q/L

Now the length of the wire is stretched to 10 times the original length, so we have:

L' = 10*L

We want to find the value of Q' such that λ' (the linear density of the stretched wire) is still equal to λ.

Then we will have:

λ' = Q'/L' = Q'/(10*L) = λ = Q/L

Q'/(10*L) = Q/L

Q'/10 = Q

Q' = 10*Q

So the new charge must be 10 times the original charge, this means that we need to add 9*Q of charge to keep the linear charge density unchanged.

A child is holding a wagon from rolling straight back down in a driveway that inclined at 20 degree horizontal. if the wagon wei

Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

F = 51.3°

Explanation:

The component of weight parallel to the inclined plane must be responsible for the rolling back motion of the car. Hence, the force required to be applied by the child must also be equal to that component of weight:

$F = Parallel\ Component\ of\ Weight\ of\ Wagon= WSin\theta\\$

where,

W = Weight of Wagon = 150 N

θ = Angle of Inclinition = 20°

Therefore,

$F = (150\ N)Sin\ 20^o$

F = 51.3°

Answer:

6) False

7) True

8) False

9) False

10) False

11) True

12) True

13) True

14) True

Explanation:

The spacing between two energy levels in an atom shows the energy difference between them. Clearly, B has a greater value of ∆E compared to A. This implies that the wavelength emitted by B is greater than A while B will emit fewer, more energetic photons.

When atoms jump from lower to higher energy levels, photons are absorbed. The kinetic energy of the incident photon determines the frequency, wavelength and colour of light emitted by the atom.

The energy level to which an atom is excited is determined by the kinetic energy of the incident electron. As the voltage increases, the kinetic energy of the electron increases, the further the atom is from the source of free electrons, the greater the required kinetic energy of free electron. When electrons are excited to higher energy levels, they must return to ground state.
