FIrst, just write down what we know :)

1. 1 mile = 1.6klm
2. There are 3600 seconds in an hr (<em>60s x 60mins = 3600</em>).

Now to get to <em>meters per second</em> (m/s) we need to first work out <em>meters per </em><em>hr</em> (simply convert miles to klm and then multiply by 1000)<em>.</em>

60 x 1.6 = 96 klm/hr x 1000 = 96,000 meters/hr

Now we know this, we can simply divide the meters per hr by <em>how many seconds there are in 1hr</em> to get meters per second:

96000 / 3600 = 26.67m/s

One acre is equal to 43560ft².How much is it in m²?​
Goryan [66]

1 ft²= 0.09290304m²

so:

43560ft²= 0.09290304m²×43560

= 4,046.8564224 m²

How to calculate displacement?​
Blizzard [7]

-- Take a straight ruler.

-- Lay it down with the 'zero' mark at the start point.

-- Rotate it around the start point until the end point is also touching the edge of the ruler.

-- From the marks on the ruler, read the straight-line distance from the start point to the end point.

-- Without moving the ruler, observe and write down the DIRECTION from the start point to the end point.

-- The Displacement is the straight-line distance and direction from the start point to the end point.

Please help! This is due tomorrow and I absolutely need help.
zysi [14]

Answer:

Correct answer:  11. Total distance d = 200m ; 12. Vav = 3.63m/s ;

13. Total displacement Dt = 0m ; 14. V₂(10s-15s) = 0 m/s ;

15. V₃(15s-40s) = 4 m/s ; 16. V₁(0s-10s) = 6 m/s > V₄(40s-55s) = 2.67 m/s

Explanation:

The whole movement can be divided into four stages.

In the first stage the subject moves 60m in a positive direction for 10s,

in the other it is stationary for 5s, in the third it moves 100m in the opposite (negative) direction for 25s and in the fourth in the positive 40m for 15s.

11. Total distance = 60 + 0 + 100 + 40 = 200m

12. The formula for calculating the average speed (velocity) is

Vav = (S₁ + S₂ + S₃ + S₄) / (t₁ + t₂ + t₃ + t₄)

Vav = (60 + 0 + 100 + 40)/ (10 + 5 + 25 + 15) = 200/55 = 3.63 m/s

13. The movement started from the origin and ended at the origin

Total displacement is zero meters.

14. The speed between 10s and 15s is zero, because he did not move.

15. V₃ = S₃/t₃ = 100/25 = 4 m/s

16. V₁ = S₁/t₁ = 60/10 = 6 m/s   and V₄ = S₄/t₄ = 40/15 = 2.67 m/s

V₁ > V₄
