Answer:

The average speed was 58 \frac{km}{hr} or 16.11 \frac{m}{sec}

Explanation:

Speed ​​is a physical quantity that expresses the relationship between the space traveled by an object, the time used for it and its direction. Its unit of measurement in the International System (S.I.) is the meter per second \frac{m}{s}.

So:

speed=\frac{distance}{time}

In this case you know:

  • distante= 506 km
  • time=7 hr

Replacing:

speed=\frac{406 km}{7 hr}

Solving:

speed=58 \frac{km}{hr}

Taking into account that 1 km is 1000 m and 1 hour is 60 minutes, which in turn is 60 seconds, the unit conversion is performed:

speed= 58\frac{km}{hr} * 1 000\frac{m}{km} *\frac{1}{60} \frac{hr}{minutes} *\frac{1}{60} \frac{minute}{sec}

speed=16.11 \frac{m}{sec}

<u><em>The average speed was 58 </em></u>\frac{km}{hr}<u><em> or 16.11 </em></u>\frac{m}{sec}<u><em></em></u>

A ball is thrown into the air with a vertical velocity of 50 m/s and a horizontal
daser333 [38]

\mathfrak{\huge{\pink{\underline{\underline{AnSwEr:-}}}}}

Actually Welcome to the Concept of the Projectile Motion.

Since, here given that, vertical velocity= 50m/s

we know that u*sin(theta) = vertical velocity

so the time taken to reach the maximum height or the time of Ascent is equal to

T = Usin(theta) ÷ g, here g = 9.8 m/s^2

so we get as,

T = 50/9.8

T = 5.10 seconds

thus the time taken to reach max height is 5.10 seconds.
