Answer:

v = 21.25 km/h

The average velocity is 21.25km/h

Explanation:

Average velocity = total displacement/time taken

v = d/t

Given;

A car travels 50 km in 25 km /h

d1 = 50km

v1 = 25km/h

time taken = distance/velocity

t1 = d1/v1

t1 = 50/25 = 2 hours

and then travels 60km with a velocity 20 km/h

d2 = 60km

v2 = 20km/h

t2 = d2/v2 = 60/20

t2 = 3 hours

and then travels 60km with a velocity 20 km/h in the same direction

d3 = 60km

v3 = 20km/h

t3 = d3/v3 = 60/20

t3 = 3 hours

Average velocity = total displacement/total time taken

v = (d1+d2+d3)/(t1+t2+t3)

v = (50+60+60)/(2+3+3)

v = 170/8

v = 21.25 km/h

The average velocity is 21.25km/h

miv72 [106K]

Answer:E. Hydrogen was able to participate in an exergonic reaction and carbon dioxide couldn't

Explanation:

An exergonic reaction releases energy to the environment. The combustion of hydrogen contained in the balloon is a chemical reaction. The reaction can take place because hydrogen combines with oxygen in air, that is, the gas is combustible. CO2 does not support combustion, it does not combine with oxygen in air and it is also denser than air, hence does not participate in the exergonic reaction.

How fast would 40 Newtons of force accelerate a 2 kg object?
Digiron [165]

Answer:

20 m/s^2

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using Newton's second law of motion, which states that the net force acting on an object is equal to the product between its mass and its acceleration:

F=ma

where

F is the net force on the object

m is its mass

a is its acceleration

In this problem:

F = 40 N is the force on the object

m = 2 kg is its mass

Therefore, the acceleration of the object is

a=\frac{F}{m}=\frac{40}{2}=20 m/s^2

A spring stretches 0.2 cm per newton of applied force. An object is suspended from the spring and a deflection of 3 cm is observ
siniylev [52]

Answer:

m=1.53kg    

Explanation:

To solve this problem we use the Hooke's Law:

F=k*\Delta x     (1)

F is the Force needed to expand or compress the spring by a distance Δx.

The spring stretches 0.2cm per Newton, in other words:

1N=k*0.2cm ⇒ k=1N/0.2cm=5N/cm  

The force applied is due to the weight

F=mg

We replace in (1):

mg=k*\Delta x  

We solve the equation for m:

m=k*\Delta x/g=5*3/9.81=1.53kg

A person walks 2 miles every day to work, leaving her front porch at 7:00 A.M. and arriving at work at 7:30 A.M. ON the way home
Nataly [62]

Answer:

The displacement is zero miles

Explanation:

The displacement of an object that moves from point A to point B is defined as

d =B-A

Where d is the displacement of the object. The displacement does not depend on the trajectory of the object. It only depends on the linear distance between the end point and the starting point.

In this case we know that the person walks from home to work and then walks from work to home. Therefore, the total displacement is the linear distance between the point where its journey begins and the point where the route ends.

The tour begins on the front porch of your house and ends on the front porch of your house (when you return from work). If we call A to the front porch of the house then the displacement is:

d = A-A = 0

The displacement is zero miles, since the person finishes the journey just where it started (front porch)
