A horse is grazing for food. It trots rightward 15 m to eat a carrot, then walks rightward 20 m, to another carrot, then turns l

eftwards to walk 4m, to bite an apple. The horse walks a total time of 74 seconds. What is the magnitude of its average velocity?
(** HINT- you may want to draw this out, remember with VELOCITY direction matters-opposite vectors cancel out-with SPEED direction does not matter).

Answer:

<h3>0.42s</h3>

Explanation:

Velocity = Displacement/time

Displacement of the horse is the distance covered in a specified direction

Total distance of the horse towards the right = 15m + 20m = 35m

Total distance of the horse towards the left = 4m

Displacement = Distance towards the right - Distance towards the left

Displacement = 35m-4m

Displacement =  31m

Time taken = 74seconds

substitute the values gotten into the velocity formula

average velocity = 31m/74s

average velocity = 0.42m/s

Hence the magnitude of its average velocity is 0.42s

No. For one thing, when it comes, it flows too fast to catch it and store it. And second, you never know WHERE to set up your equipment.

A 5 meter long ladder leans against a wall. The bottom of the ladder slides away from the wall at the constant rate of 1 3 m/s.
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:9.75 m/s

Explanation:

Given

Length of ladder (L)=5 m

Foot the ladder is moving away with speed of \frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}=13 m/s

From diagram

x^2+y^2=L^2------1

at x=3

y^2=25-9=16

y=4 m

Now differentiating equation 1 w.r.t time

2x\frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}+2y\frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{d} t}=0

x\frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}=-y\frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{d} t}

3\times 13=-4\times \frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{d} t}

\frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{d} t}=-\frac{3\times 13}{4}=-9.75 m/s

negative indicates distance is decreasing with time

vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

25.08m/s

Explanation:

mgh1 + 0.5mv1² = mgh2 + 0.5mv2²

h1 = 0m

v1 = u

h2 = 5m

v2 = 23m/s

putting the values into the formula above;

m(10)(0) + 0.5m(u²) = m(10)(5) + 0.5m(23²)

0 + 0.5mu² = 50m + 264.5m

0.5mu² = 314.5m

dividing through by m

0.5u² = 314.5

u² = 629

u = <u>2</u><u>5</u><u>.</u><u>0</u><u>8</u><u>m</u><u>/</u><u>s</u>
