On a cross-country trip, a couple drives 500 mi in 10 h on the first day, 380 mi in 8.0 h on the second day, and 600 mi in 15 h

on the third day. what was the average speed for the whole trip?

We know that the average speed is simply the ratio of the total distance travelled over the total duration of the trip.

total distance = 500 mi + 380 mi + 600 mi

total distance = 1,480 mi

 

total time = 10 h + 8 h + 15 h

total time = 33 h

 

So the average speed is therefore:

average speed = 1,480 mi / 33 h

<span>average speed = 44.85 mi / h</span>

An electron shell can hold 2(n^2) electrons (technically) where n is the shell number, i.e. shell 1 can hold 2, shell 2 can hold 8, 3 holds 18 and so on.
The atomic number of Nitrogen is 7, i.e. it has 7 electrons (to match its 7 protons, assuming it isn't an ion).

With the atomic number, you simply start from shell 1 and work out. So we put 2 electrons in shell 1, leaving us with 5 left. Shell 2 can hold 6 so we can fit all 5 in.

In other words, you should have 2 electron shells on the atom, shell 1 with 2 e- and shell 2 with 5 e-.

A baseball player hits a homerun, and the ball lands in the left field seats, which is 103m away from the point at which the bal
Sati [7]

(a) The ball has a final velocity vector

\mathbf v_f=v_{x,f}\,\mathbf i+v_{y,f}\,\mathbf j

with horizontal and vertical components, respectively,

v_{x,f}=\left(20.5\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\cos(-38^\circ)\approx16.2\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}

v_{y,f}=\left(20.5\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\sin(-38^\circ)\approx-12.6\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}

The horizontal component of the ball's velocity is constant throughout its trajectory, so v_{x,i}=v_{x,f}, and the horizontal distance <em>x</em> that it covers after time <em>t</em> is

x=v_{x,i}t=v_{x,f}t

It lands 103 m away from where it's hit, so we can determine the time it it spends in the air:

103\,\mathrm m=\left(16.2\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)t\implies t\approx6.38\,\mathrm s

The vertical component of the ball's velocity at time <em>t</em> is

v_{y,f}=v_{y,i}-gt

where <em>g</em> = 9.80 m/s² is the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity. Solve for the vertical component of the initial velocity:

-12.6\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}=v_{y,i}-\left(9.80\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(6.38\,\mathrm s)\implies v_{y,i}\approx49.9\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}

So, the initial velocity vector is

\mathbf v_i=v_{x,i}\,\mathbf i+v_{y,i}\,\mathbf j=\left(16.2\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\,\mathbf i+\left(49.9\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\,\mathbf j

which carries an initial speed of

\|\mathbf v_i\|=\sqrt{{v_{x,i}}^2+{v_{y,i}}^2}\approx\boxed{52.4\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}}

and direction <em>θ</em> such that

\tan\theta=\dfrac{v_{y,i}}{v_{x,i}}\implies\theta\approx\boxed{72.0^\circ}

(b) I assume you're supposed to find the height of the ball when it lands in the seats. The ball's height <em>y</em> at time <em>t</em> is

y=v_{y,i}t-\dfrac12gt^2

so that when it lands in the seats at <em>t</em> ≈ 6.38 s, it has a height of

y=\left(49.9\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)(6.38\,\mathrm s)-\dfrac12\left(9.80\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(6.38\,\mathrm s)^2\approx\boxed{119\,\mathrm m}

A single crystal of aluminum is oriented for a tensile test such that its slip plane normal makes angle of 28.1 with the tensil
NISA [10]

Answer:

we have to find out the critical resolved shear stress. As it it given in the question

Ф = 28.1°and the possible values for λ are 62.4°, 72.0° and 81.1°.

a) Slip will occur in the direction where cosФ cosλ are maximum. Cosine for all possible λ values are given as follows.

cos(62.4°) = 0.46

cos(72.0°) = 0.31

cos(81.1°) = 0.15

Thus, the slip direction is at the angle of 62.4° along the tensile axis.

b) now the critical resolved shear stress can be find out by the following equation.

τ_{crss} = σ_{Y} ( cosФ cosλ)_{max}

now by putting values,

     = (1.95MPa)[ cos(28.1) cos(62.4)] = 0.80 MPa (114 Psi) 7.23
