What is the average velocity of an arrow that travels 12 m [E] in 0.15 s?

1 answer:

6 0

Velocity is defined as Distance divided by Time.
In other words, V = D/T.

Now that we have our formula, we can solve.
Let's plug in the numbers we have.

We have 12m [East (direction not necessary when solving yet)] for our distance, and 0.15s as our time.

Divide the distance (12 /) by the time (0.15)
12 / 0.15 = 80.

Your velocity is 80 m/s [E]

I hope this helps!

Why must one use a reference point to determine whether or not an object is in motion

GaryK [48]

Because there's no such thing as "really" moving.
ALL motion is always relative to something.

Here's an example:
You're sitting in a comfy cushy seat, reading a book and listening
to your .mp3 player, and you're getting drowsy. It's so warm and
comfortable, your eyes are getting so heavy, finally the book slips
out of your hand, falls into your lap, and you are fast asleep.

-- Relative to you, the book is not moving at all.
-- Relative to the seat, you are not moving at all.
-- Relative to the wall and the window, the seat is not moving at all.
-- But your seat is in a passenger airliner. Relative to people on the
    ground, you are moving past them at almost 500 miles per hour !
-- Relative to the center of the Earth, the people on the ground are moving
   in a circle at more than 700 miles per hour.
-- Relative to the center of the Sun, the Earth and everything on it are moving
   in a circle at about 66,700 miles per hour !

How fast are they REALLY moving ?
There's no such thing.
It all depends on what reference you're using.

A 4.6-kg block of ice originally at 263 K is placed in thermal contact with a 15.7-kg block of silver (cAg = 233 J/kg-K) which i

Viktor [21]

Answer:

temperature at 326.44 K system achieve equilibrium

Explanation:

given data

mass of block of ice = 4.6 kg

temperature = 263 K

thermal contact = 15.7-kg

specific heat of silver cAg = 233 J/kg-K

initially temperature = 1052 K

to find out

what temperature will the system achieve equilibrium

solution

first we consider final temperature of the system is T

we know that specific heat of water (C w) = 4186 J(kg K)

and

specific heat of ice ( C i ) = 2030 J/(kg K)

and

latent heat of fusion of ice ( Lf ) = 3.33 × $10^{5}$ J/kg

and we know that system is insulated

so heat lost by silver = heat generated by ice .................1

so we can say

mass of silver × specific heat of silver × ( initial temp - final temp ) = mass of ice × specific heat of ice × ( ice temp ) + mass of ice × latent heat of fusion of ice + mass of ice × specific heat of water × (final temperature )

put here value we get

15.7 × 233 × ( 1052 - T ) = 4.6 × 2030 × 10 + 4.6 × 3.33 × $10^{5}$ + 4.6 × 4286 × ( T - 273 )

solve we get

T = 326.44 K

so temperature at 326.44 K system achieve equilibrium

1. A 46000N helicopter feels a net force of 9200N. What litt force is exerted by the air on the propellers?

Lina20 [59]

Answer:

Force exerted by the air on the propellers = 46000 - 9200

= 36800 N
