You travel 20.0 mph for 0.500 hour, 40.0 mph for 1.00 hour, 30.0 mph for 0.500 hour, and 50.0 mph for 2.00 hours. What is the av

The answer is 41.25 mph.

The average speed (v) can be expressed as:
v = D/T  
where
D is total distance: D = d1 + d2 + d3 + d4
T is total time: T = t1 + t2 + t3 + t4

Now let's calculate distances using the formula: d = v * t:
d1 = v1 * t1 = 20.0 * 0.500 = 10 mi
d2 = v2 * t2 = 40.0 * 1.00 = 40 mi
d3 = v3 * t3 = 30.0 * 0.500 = 15 mi
d4 = v4 * t4 = 50.0 * 2.00 = 100 mi

Thus, the average speed is:
v= \frac{D}{T}= \frac{d1 + d2 + d3 +d4}{t1+t2+t3+t4} = \frac{10+40+15+100}{0.500+1.00+0.500+2.00}= \frac{165}{4} = 41.25 mph

Suppose an electron is trapped within a small region and the uncertainty in its position is 24.0 x 10-15 m. What is the minimum
Alina [70]

Answer:

  • Uncertainty in position (∆x) = 24 × 10⁻¹⁵ m
  • Uncertainty in momentum (∆P) = ?
  • Planck's constant (h) = 6.26 × 10⁻³⁴ Js

\longrightarrow \:  \:  \sf\Delta x .\Delta p =  \dfrac{h}{4\pi}

\longrightarrow \:  \:  \sf24 \times  {10}^{ - 15}  .\Delta p =  \dfrac{6.26 \times  {10}^{ - 34}} {4 \times  \frac{22}{7} }

\longrightarrow \:  \:  \sf24 \times  {10}^{ - 15}  .\Delta p =  \dfrac{6.26 \times  {10}^{ - 34}} { \frac{88}{7} }

\longrightarrow \:  \:  \sf24 \times  {10}^{ - 15}  .\Delta p =  \dfrac{6.26 \times  {10}^{ - 34} \times 7} { 8 }

\longrightarrow \:  \:  \sf\Delta p =  \dfrac{43.82 \times  {10}^{ - 34} } { 8  \times 24 \times  {10}^{ - 15} }

\longrightarrow \:  \:  \sf\Delta p =  \dfrac{43.82 \times  {10}^{ - 34} } { 192 \times  {10}^{ - 15} }

\longrightarrow \:  \:  \sf\Delta p =  \dfrac{43.82 \times  {10}^{ - 34}  \times  {10}^{15} } { 192}

\longrightarrow \:  \:  \sf\Delta p =  \dfrac{43.82 \times  {10}^{ -19}   } { 192}

\longrightarrow \:  \:  \sf\Delta p =  \dfrac{4382 \times  {10}^{ - 2}  \times  {10}^{ -19}   } { 192}

\longrightarrow \:  \:  \sf\Delta p =  \dfrac{4382 \times  {10}^{ - 21}   } { 192}

\longrightarrow \:  \:  \sf\Delta p = 22.822\times  {10}^{ - 21}

\longrightarrow \:  \:  \sf\Delta p = 2.2822 \times  {10}^{1} \times  {10}^{ - 21}

A soft drink (mostly water) flows in a pipe at a beverage plant with a mass flow rate that would fill 220 0.355 - L cans per min
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

A. To find the mass flow rate.

We use= 220 x 0.355/ 60

= 1.3kg/s

B. Volume flowrate is = mass flowrate / density

But density is 1000kg/m³

= 1.3kg/s/ 1000kg/m³

= 0.0013m³/s

C. Flow speead at 1

= 0.0013m³/s / (2 x 10-2m)²

= 6.5m/s

D.flow speed at 2

0.0013m³/s / (8x 10-2m)²

=1.63m/s

E. Gauge pressure at point 1

= 152+ 1/1000 ( 1.63)²- 6.5² + 1000( 9.8) ( 0-1.35)

= 119kpa

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

All of the choices are correct except the nodes, which don't move at all.

Explanation:

when a horizontal string fixed at both ends is oscillating in a standing wave pattern the antinodes move with simple harmonic motion while the node is stationary.
