Let's say the distance is D. Then the time going is D/10 sec. The time returning is D/20 s. The total time is 3D/20 s, and the total distance is 2D. The average speed for the round trip is (total distance)/(total time). That's (2D) ÷ (3D/20). That's (40D/3D) which is 13-1/3 m/s. (I thought it was going to depend on the distance, but it doesn't.)

A 28-kg beginning roller skater is standing in front of a wall. By pushing against the wall, she is propelled backward with a ve
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

33.6 Ns backward.

Explanation:

Impulse: This can be defined as the product of force and time. The S.I unit of impulse is Ns.

From Newton's second law of motion,

Impulse = change in momentum

I = mΔv................................. Equation 1

Where I = impulse, m = mass of the skater, Δv = change in velocity = final velocity - initial velocity.

Given: m = 28 kg, t = 0.8 s, Δv = -1.2-0 = -1.2 m/s (Note: the initial velocity of the skater = 0 m/s)

Substituting into equation 1

I = 28(-1.2)

I = -33.6 Ns

Thus the impulse = 33.6 Ns backward.

A ball is thrown vertically downward at 10 m/s. what is it’s speed 1s and 2s later
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

20 m/s

30 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = -10 m/s

a = -9.8 m/s²

When t = 1 s:

v = v₀ + at

v = (-10 m/s) + (-9.8 m/s²) (1 s)

v = -19.8 m/s

When t = 2 s:

v = v₀ + at

v = (-10 m/s) + (-9.8 m/s²) (2 s)

v = -29.6 m/s

Rounded to one significant figures, the speed of the ball at 1 s and 2 s is 20 m/s and 30 m/s, respectively.
