For the first part of the trip:
we have velocity = 960 km/hr and distance = 2250 km
velocity = distance / time
time1 = distance / velocity = 2250 / 960 = 2.34375 hours

For the second part of the trip:
we have velocity = 805 km/hr and distance = 1320 km
velocity = distance / time
time2 = distance / velocity = 1320 / 805 = 1.63975 hours

For the total trip:
we have:
total distance covered = 2250 + 1320 = 3570 km
total time taken = 2.34375 + 1.63975 = 3.9835 hours
average velocity = total distance / total time
average velocity = 3570 / 3.9835 = 896.1968 km/hr

A 1500 kg truck is acted upon by a force that decreases its speed from 25 m/s to 15 m/s in 8 s. What is the magnitude of the for
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

F = 1,875 N

Explanation:

force=

\frac{change \: in \: momentum}{time \: taken}

∆H = m∆V

where ∆H ----> change in momentum.

( final momentum - initial momentum )

and ∆V ----> change in velocity

( final velocity - initial velocity )

and m ----> is mass

then f =

\frac{1500 \times (25 - 15)}{8}

= 1,875 N

A larger truck takes more force to move<br><br> What law of motion is it?
Y_Kistochka [10]
Newton's Second Law would probably best describe this. 
F = ma 
Where F = force
m = mass
a = acceleration 

The force required is dependant on the mass, and where the mass is greater, the force required will be greater.

oee [108]

The amount of solute is increased, and the conductivity of the solution is increased

Explanation:

The ability of a solution to conduct electricity is conductivity.The more concentrated a solution is the higher the conductivity.This is because the concentration of ions will increase.Increasing solute increases the concentration of a solution thus rising the conductivity.
