Average speed = (distance covered) / (time to cover the distance).

Distance covered = 437 km = 437,000 meters

Time to cover the distance = (7.27 hrs) x (3600 sec/hr) = 26,172 seconds

Average speed = (437,000 meters) / (26,172 seconds)

Average speed = 16.7 m/s

I have an astronomy question... Spinning up the solar nebula. The orbital speed of the material in the solar nebula at Pluto's a
attashe74 [19]
<span>The angular momentum of a particle in orbit is 

l = m v r 

Assuming that no torques act and that angular momentum is conserved then if we compare two epochs "1" and "2" 

m_1 v_1 r_1 = m_2 v_2 r_2 

Assuming that the mass did not change, conservation of angular momentum demands that 

v_1 r_1 = v_2 r_2 

or 

v1 = v_2 (r_2/r_1) 

Setting r_1 = 40,000 AU and v_2 = 5 km/s and r_2 = 39 AU (appropriate for Pluto's orbit) we have 

v_2 = 5 km/s (39 AU /40,000 AU) = 4.875E-3 km/s

Therefore, </span> the orbital speed of this material when it was 40,000 AU from the sun is <span>4.875E-3 km/s.

I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly.

Two waves with amplitudes of 75 units and 74 units arrive at a point in a medium simultaneously. If the two waves are out of pha
avanturin [10]
If the two waves have the SAME FREQUENCY and are exactly
out of phase (180° apart), then the resultant wave will have the
same frequency and an amplitude of 1 unit.

If the two waves do not have the SAME FREQUENCY, then their
relative phase is meaningless.

A vehicle is moving with 20m/s towards the east and another is moving 15m/s towards the west​
just olya [345]

Answer:

5 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

A vehicle is moving with 20m/s towards the east and another is moving 15m/s towards the west​.

It is assumed to find the resultant velocity of the vehicle. Let east side is positive and west is negative. So,

v=v_1+v_2\\\\=20+(-15)\\\\=5\ m/s

Hence, the resultant velocity of the vehicle is equal to 5 m/s.
