Answer:

\huge\boxed{Divide\ distance \ by \ time}

Explanation:

Speed = Distance / Time

So, to find distance, we actually divide distance by rime.

Answer:

\large \boxed{\mathrm{divide \ distance \ by \ time}}

Explanation:

Using the formula to calculate speed:

\displaystyle \sf speed =\frac{distance}{time}

We divide the distance by the time taken to get the average speed.

sp2606 [1]

Answer:

Concrete

Explanation:

The speed at which sound propagates is medium dependent. As one of the forms of mechanical waves, sound requires a material medium for propagation from place to place.

  • Sound travels with the least speed in air because air particles are far apart and they are randomized.
  • Sound travels with the greatest speed in solids. Concrete is the only solid material given in the choice.

The speed of sound increases from air to liquid and to solid.

A simple pendulum has a period of 3.45 second, when the length of the pendulum is shortened by 1.0m, the period is 2.81 second c
den301095 [7]

Answer:

Original length = 2.97 m

Explanation:

Let the original length of the pendulum be 'L' m

Given:

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Original time period of the pendulum (T) = 3.45 s

Now, the length is shortened by 1.0 m. So, the new length is 1 m less than the original length.

New length of the pendulum is, L_1=L-1

New time period of the pendulum is, T_1=2.81\ s

We know that, the time period of a simple pendulum of length 'L' is given as:

T=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}-------------- (1)

So, for the new length, the time period is given as:

T_1=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{L_1}{g}}------------ (2)

Squaring both the equations and then dividing them, we get:

\dfrac{T^2}{T_1^2}=\dfrac{(2\pi)^2\frac{L}{g}}{(2\pi)^2\frac{L_1}{g}}\\\\\\\dfrac{T^2}{T_1^2}=\dfrac{L}{L_1}\\\\\\L=\dfrac{T^2}{T_1^2}\times L_1

Now, plug in the given values and calculate 'L'. This gives,

L=\frac{3.45^2}{2.81^2}\times (L-1)\\\\L=1.507L-1.507\\\\L-1.507L=-1.507\\\\-0.507L=-1.507\\\\L=\frac{-1.507}{-0.507}=2.97\ m

Therefore, the original length of the simple pendulum is 2.97 m

Why do many species that existed 35 million years ago no longer exist​
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

There are several reasons for the extinction of species. Some of these can include climate change, natural disasters, environmental destruction, or over-hunting. All of these factors can contribute to the deaths of various animals which ultimately leads to extinction if left unchecked.

Explain why two different elements cannot occupy the same box in the periodic table
bezimeni [28]
They cant occupy the same box in the periodic table because each atom has a certain number of protons which is the atomic number and no two atoms have the same amount of protons.

During the spin-dry cycle of a washing machine, the motor slows from 90 rad/s to 30 rad/s while the turning the drum through an
loris [4]

Answer:

The magnitude of angular acceleration of the motor is 20\ rad/s^2.          

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial angular velocity, \omega_i=90\ rad/s

Final angular velocity, \omega_f=30\ rad/s

Angular displacement, \theta=180\ rad

Let \alpha is the magnitude of the angular acceleration of the motor. It can be calculated using third equation of rotational kinematics as :

\omega_f^2-\omega_i^2=2\alpha \theta\\\\\alpha =\dfrac{\omega_f^2-\omega_i^2}{2\theta}\\\\\alpha =\dfrac{30^2-90^2}{2\times 180}\\\\\alpha =-20\ rad/s^2

So, the magnitude of angular acceleration of the motor is 20\ rad/s^2.
