A car travels 2155.0m in 195.9s. What is the car's average speed?

Physics
1 answer:
inna [77]3 years ago
3 0

Average speed of the car is 11 m/s

Explanation:

  • Speed is calculated by the rate of change of displacement.
  • It is given by the formula, Speed = Distance/Time
  • Here, distance = 2155 m and time = 195.9 s

Speed of the car = 2155/195.9 = 11 m/s

What happens to the gravitational potential energy between two particles if the distance between them is halved? (a) It does not
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

The gravitational potential energy between two particles, if the distance between them is halved, is multiplied by 4 (option c).

Explanation:

The gravitational force is the force of mutual attraction that two objects with mass experience.

The Law of Universal Gravitation enunciated by Newton says that every material particle attracts any other material particle with a force directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance that separates them. Mathematically this is expressed as:

F=G*\frac{m1*m2}{r^{2} }

where m1 and m2 are the masses of the objects, r the distance between them and G a universal constant that receives  the name of constant of gravitation.

If the distance between two particles is reduced by half, then, where F' is the new value of the gravitational force:

F'=G*\frac{m1*m2}{(\frac{r}{2} )^{2} }

F'=G*\frac{m1*m2}{\frac{(r )^{2} }{2^{2} } }

F'=G*\frac{m1*m2}{\frac{(r )^{2} }{4} }

F'=4*G*\frac{m1*m2}{r^{2} }

F'=4*F

A 6.4-N force pulls horizontally on a 1.5-kg block that slides on a smooth horizontal surface. This block is connected by a hori
Elena L [17]

-- Although it's not explicitly stated in the question,we have to assume that
the surface is frictionless.  I guess that's what "smooth" means.

-- The total mass of both blocks is (1.5 + 0.93) = 2.43 kg. Since they're
connected to each other (by the string), 2.43 kg is the mass you're pulling.

-- Your force is 6.4 N.
                                    Acceleration = (force)/(mass) = 6.4/2.43 m/s²<em>
                                                                 </em>
That's about  <em>2.634 m/s²</em>  <em>

</em>
(I'm going to keep the fraction form handy, because the acceleration has to be
used for the next part of the question, so we'll need it as accurate as possible.)

-- Both blocks accelerate at the same rate. So the force on the rear block (m₂) is

       Force = (mass) x (acceleration) = (0.93) x (6.4/2.43) = <em>2.45 N</em>.

That's the force that's accelerating the little block, so that must be the tension
in the string.

In the physics lab, a block of mass M slides down a frictionless incline from a height of 35cm. At the bottom of the incline it
bogdanovich [222]

Solution :

Given :

M = 0.35 kg

$m=\frac{M}{2}=0.175 \ kg$

Total mechanical energy = constant

or $K.E._{top}+P.E._{top} = K.E._{bottom}+P.E._{bottom}$

But $K.E._{top} = 0$ and $P.E._{bottom} = 0$

Therefore, potential energy at the top = kinetic energy at the bottom

$\Rightarrow mgh = \frac{1}{2}mv^2$

$\Rightarrow v = \sqrt{2gh}$

      $=\sqrt{2 \times 9.8 \times 0.35}$      (h = 35 cm = 0.35 m)

      = 2.62 m/s

It is the velocity of M just before collision of 'm' at the bottom.

We know that in elastic collision velocity after collision is given by :

$v_1=\frac{m_1-m_2}{m_1+m_2}v_1+ \frac{2m_2v_2}{m_1+m_2}$

here, $m_1=M, m_2 = m, v_1 = 2.62 m/s, v_2 = 0$

∴ $v_1=\frac{0.35-0.175}{0.5250}+\frac{2 \times 0.175 \times 0}{0.525}

      $=\frac{0.175}{0.525}+0$

     = 0.33 m/s

Therefore, velocity after the collision of mass M = 0.33 m/s

Explain how the potential energy of two charged particles depends on the distance between the charged particles and on the magni
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

According to Coulomb's Law, the potential energy of two charged particles is directly proportional to the product of the two charges and inversely proportional to the distance between the charges

Explanation:

According to Coulomb's Law, the potential energy of two charged particles is directly proportional to the product of the two charges and inversely proportional to the distance between the charges.  Since the potential energy  of two charged particles is directly proportional to the product of the two charges, its magnitude increases as the charges of the particles increases. For like charges, the potential energy is positive(the product of the two alike charges must be positive) and since potential energy is inversely proportional to the distance between the charges therefore it decreases as the particles get farther apart . For opposite charges, the potential energy is negative(the product of the two opposite charges must be negative) and since potential energy is inversely proportional to the distance between the two charges, it becomes more negative as the particles get closer together.
