Micha ran 2 miles north in 20 minutes. She then turned back and ran 1 mile in 15 minutes. To cool down, she walked the rest of t

he way home. It took her 20 minutes.
What was Micha's average velocity for her run north?

What was Micha's average velocity for the whole trip?

What was her average speed for her entire jog?

1) The average velocity while running north is 6 mph

2) The average velocity for the whole trip is zero

3) The average speed for the whole trip is 4.4 mph

Explanation:

1)

The average velocity is defined as:

v=\frac{d}{t}

where

d is the displacement

t is the time interval

Here we want to analyze the motion of Micha while she runs north only. The displacement is the distance in a straight line between the initial position and final position, so

d=2 miles

while the time interval is

t=20 min = \frac{1}{3}h

So, the average velocity is

v=\frac{2}{1/3}=6 mph

and the direction is the same as the displacement (north).

2)

As we said, the displacement is the distance in a straight line between the initial position and final position of motion.

If we consider the whole trip, the final position of the Micha is equal to her initial position, since she walked back to home: therefore,

displacement = d = 0

And so, the average velocity is also zero:

v=0

3)

The average speed is defined as

v=\frac{d}{t}

where

d is the distance covered

t is the time interval considered

The distance covered is just the length of the total path covered regardless of the direction, so for the entire jog we have:

d = 2 mi + 2 mi = 4 miles

(since she runs 2 miles north and then another 2 miles back)

The total time is

t=20 min + 15 min + 20 min = 55 min = \frac{55}{60}h = \frac{11}{12}h

So, the average speed is

v=\frac{4}{11/12}=\frac{48}{11} mph = 4.4 mph

What affects the amount of potential energy stored in the magnetic field when a magnet is moved against a magnetic force?
LekaFEV [45]

Answer: Strength of magnet and distance from magnetic material

Explanation:

The potential energy of a magnet is determined by the strength of the magnet and the distance between a magnet and another magnet or a magnetic material. Magnetic materials are materials that would be attracted when brought close to a magnet, example of magnetic materials are most metals.

A fire helicopter carries a 580-kg bucket of water at the end of a 20.0-m long cable. Flying back from a fire at a constant spee
inn [45]

Answer:

F = 41,954 N

Explanation:

given,

mass of bucket = 580 Kg

length of the cable = 20 m

velocity = 40 m/s

angle made = 38.0°

T cos 38° = m g..............(1)

T sin 38^0 = \dfrac{mv^2}{l} + F......(2)

dividing equation (2) by (1)

tan 38^0 = \dfrac{\dfrac{mv^2}{l} + F}{mg}

tan 38^0 = \dfrac{\dfrac{580\times 40^2}{20} + F}{580 \times 9.81}

4445.36 = \dfrac{580\times 40^2}{20} + F

F = -46400 + 4445.36

F = -41,954 N

hence, the force is acting in the opposite direction as assumed.

F = 41,954 N

<h3>Answer: 104.5 cubic cm</h3>

=======================================================

Work Shown:

r = radius = 1.045 cm

h = height = 30.48 cm

pi = 3.141 approximately

V = volume of cylinder

V = pi*r^2*h

V = 3.141*(1.045)^2*30.48

V = 104.547940002

V = 104.5 cubic cm

1. The illuminance on a surface is 6 lux and the surface is 4 meters from the light source. What is the intensity of the source?
Crank

<u>Answer</u>

1) A. 96 Candelas

2) A. Both of these types of lenses have the ability to produce upright images.

3) C. 5 meters


<u>Explanation</u>

Q1

The formula for calculation the luminous intensity is;

Luminous intensity = illuminance × square radius

Lv = Ev × r²

= 6 × 4²

= 6 × 16

= 96 Candelabra

Q2

For converging lenses, an upright image is formed when the object is between the lens and the principal focus while a diverging lens always forms and upright image.

A. Both of these types of lenses have the ability to produce upright images.

Q3

Luminous intensity = illuminance × square radius

square radius = Luminous intensity/ illuminance

r² = 100/4

= 25

r = √25

= 5 m
