The average speed of the car is 93.33 km/hr and the average velocity of the car is 40 km/hr.

The total distance cover in east direction is=100*3=300 km

The total distance cover in the west direction=80*1.5=120 km

The total distance covered is =300+120=420 km

And Total displacement of the car is =300-120=180 km

As we know that the average speed is given as

Avg Speed =Total Distance / Total time

=420/4.5=93.33 km/hr

As we know that the average velocity is given as

Avg Speed =Total Displacement/ Total time

=180/4.5=40 km/hr

Therefore, The average speed of the car is 93.33 km/hr and the average velocity of the car is 40 km/hr.

A room has a wall with an R value of 18 F sq.ft. hr/BTU. The room is 15 feet long and 11 feet wide with walls that are 9 ft high
seropon [69]

Answer:

The heat transferred through the wall that day is  13728 BTUs

Explanation:

Here, we have the area of the wall given as

Area of wall = 2 × Length × Height + 2 × Width × Height

Length = 15 feet

Width = 11 Feet and

Height = 9 feet

Therefore, the area = 2×15×9 + 2×11×9 = 468 ft²

Temperature difference is given by

Average outside temperature - Wall temperature = 40 - 18 = 22 °F

Therefore the heat transferred through the wall that day (24 hours) at 18 sq.ft. hr/BTU is given by;

468 × 22 × 24/18 = 13728 = 13728 BTUs.

Waves diffract the most when their wavelength is
djverab [1.8K]
<h2>Answer: about the same size of the gap  or slit</h2>

Diffraction happens when a wave (mechanical or electromagnetic wave, in fact, any wave) meets an obstacle or a slit .When this occurs, the wave bends around the corners of the obstacle or passes through the opening of the slit that acts as an obstacle, forming multiple patterns with the shape of the aperture of the slit.

Note that the principal condition for the occurrence of this phenomena is that the obstacle must be comparable in size (similar size) to the size of the wavelength.

In other words, when the gap (or slit) size is larger than the wavelength, the wave passes through the gap and does not spread out much on the other side, but when the gap size is equal to the wavelength, maximum diffraction occurs.

Therefore:

<h2>Waves diffract the most when their wavelength is <u>about the same size of the gap </u></h2>

A string of mass 60.0 g and length 2.0 m is fixed at both ends and with 500 N in tension. a. If a wave is sent along this string
Darya [45]

Answer:

a

The  speed of  wave is   v_1  = 129.1 \ m/s

b

The new speed of the two waves is v =  129.1 \ m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The mass of the string is  m  =  60 \ g  =  60 *10^{-3} \ kg

    The length is  l  =  2.0 \ m

    The tension is  T  = 500 \ N

Now the velocity of the first wave is mathematically represented as

     v_1  = \sqrt{ \frac{T}{\mu} }

Where  \mu is the linear density which is mathematically represented as

      \mu  =  \frac{m}{l}

substituting values    

     \mu  =  \frac{ 60 *10^{-3}}{2.0 }

     \mu  =  0.03\ kg/m

So

   v_1  = \sqrt{ \frac{500}{0.03} }

   v_1  = 129.1 \ m/s

Now given that the Tension, mass and length are constant the velocity of the second wave will same as that of first wave (reference PHYS 1100 )

What is Planck’s law?
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

The wavelength of the emitted radiation is inversely proportional to its frequency, or λ = c/ν. The value of Planck's constant is defined as 6.62607015 × 10−34 joule∙second.

Explanation:

Planck's quantum theory. According to Planck's quantum theory, Different atoms and molecules can emit or absorb energy in discrete quantities only. The smallest amount of energy that can be emitted or absorbed in the form of electromagnetic radiation is known as quantum.

Hope this helps!
