Answer:

The motorist average speed for the trip is 88 km/h

Explanation:

In order to know her average speed, we have to refer to the following ecuation:

<V> (average speed) = \frac{Vfinal+Vinital}{2}

So, according to that, we know that the motorist has been having a speed of 80km/h during 3 hours, and a speed of 100 km/h during 2 hours. It means that her speed during all the travel is 5 hours.

Then, we have to affect the 5 hours to the inicial and final speed as follows:

First, at 80 km/h, she travels during 2 hours so:

3h*80km/h= 240 km

And then, at 100 km/h:

2h*100km/h= 200 km

Which leads us to:

initial speed: 240 km/ 5 h= 48 km/h

and final speed of: 200 km/ 5 h= 40 km/h

Then, the average speed is:

<V> = 48 km/h + 40 km/h = 88 km/h

3x80=240
2x100=200
240+200/5=88 k/hr

A 900 kg car speeds up from 30 M/S to 80 m/s how much momentum did the car gain?​
AlexFokin [52]

The change in momentum of the car is 45,000 kg m/s

Explanation:

The change in momentum of an object is given by:

\Delta p = m(v-u)

where

m is the mass of the object

u is its initial velocity

v is its final velocity

For the car in this problem, we have

m = 900 kg

u = 30 m/s

v = 80 m/s

Therefore, the change in momentum is:

\Delta p = (900)(80-30)=45,000 kg m/s

Can charging by friction occur only in solids? explain using an example.
frozen [14]
The answer to the question can charging by friction occur only in solids is no. not at all. the static charge generated by following fluids can be hazardous. just as the static discharge when you touch a doorknob produces a spark, lightening is the spark from the static charge built up in the atmosphere.
