Answer:
Average speed = 40.50 km/h (Approx)
Explanation:
Distance = Time × Speed
Total distance = (40/60) 50 + (8/60) 70 + (35/60) 35
Total distance = 33.33 km + 9.33 km + 20.17 km
Total distance = 62.80 km
Average speed = Total distance / Total time taken
Average speed = 62.80 / [(40+8+35+40)/60]
Average speed = 62.80 / 1.55
Average speed = 40.50 km/h (Approx)
Newton's 2nd law of motion says:
Force = (mass) x (acceleration).
In order to accomplish the task described in the question,
you would need
Force = (20 kilograms) x (the desired rate of acceleration) .
Answer:
Spring potential energy = 7.875Nm
Explanation:
<u>Given the following data;</u>
Extension, e = 15cm to meters = 15/100 = 0.15m
Spring constant, k = 350n/m
To find the force;
Force = spring constant * extension
Force = 350 * 0.15
Force = 52.5 Newton.
Now to find the spring potential energy we would use the formula below;
Spring potential energy = force * extension
Substituting into the equation, we have;
Spring potential energy = 52.5 * 0.15
<em>Spring potential energy = 7.875Nm</em>
