Average speed is useful but it might not describe your actual speed

Average speed is useful in describing the motion of a body, but it does not tell everything about the motion. For instance, a car traveling at an average speed of 100 kilometers per hour during a certain hour could conceivably have traveled at 150 km/h for 40 minutes, Energy, Ch. 3, extension 1 Calculating average speed and velocity 3 then halted for the last 20 minutes as a patrolman gave the driver a ticket (picture above). Its average speed really does not describe that hour’s journey very well. The way to deal with such a situation is to take the average over a shorter interval, and do this more times. In the example given above, if the speed were sampled every 15 minutes instead of over the entire hour, we would list average speeds of 150 km/h at the start (0 to 15 minutes), 150 km/h (15 to 30 minutes), 100 km/h (30 to 45 minutes), and 0 km/h (45 to 60 minutes).

Points a and b lie in a region where the y-component of the electric field is Ey=α+β/y2. The constants in this expression have t
Drupady [299]

Answer:

V_{a} - V_{b} = 89.3

Explanation:

The electric potential is defined by

         V_{b} - V_{a} = - ∫ E .ds

In this case the electric field is in the direction and the points (ds) are also in the direction and therefore the angle is zero and the scalar product is reduced to the algebraic product.

         V_{b} - V_{a} = - ∫ E ds

We substitute

         V_{b} - V_{a} = - ∫ (α + β/ y²) dy

We integrate

          V_{b} - V_{a} = - α y + β / y

We evaluate between the lower limit A  2 cm = 0.02 m and the upper limit B 3 cm = 0.03 m

           V_{b} - V_{a} = - α (0.03 - 0.02) + β (1 / 0.03 - 1 / 0.02)

            V_{b} - V_{a} = - 600 0.01 + 5 (-16.67) = -6 - 83.33

            V_{b} - V_{a} = - 89.3 V

As they ask us the reverse case

             V_{b} - V_{a} = - V_{b} - V_{a}

             V_{a} - V_{b} = 89.3

A projectile of mass 1.800 kg approaches a stationary target body at 4.800 m/s. The projectile is deflected through an angle of
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

P = 5.22 Kg.m/s

Explanation:

given,

mass of the projectile = 1.8 Kg

speed of the target = 4.8 m/s

angle of deflection = 60°

Speed after collision = 2.9 m/s

magnitude of momentum after collision = ?

initial momentum of the body = m x v

                                                  = 1.8 x 4.8 = 8.64 kg.m/s

final momentum after collision

momentum along x-direction

P_x = m v cos θ

P_x = 1.8 x 2.9 x  cos 60°

P_x = 2.61 kg.m/s

momentum along y-direction

P_y = m v sin θ

P_y = 1.8 x 2.9 x  sin 60°

P_y = 4.52 kg.m/s

net momentum of the body

P = \sqrt{P_x^2 + P_y^2}

P = \sqrt{4.52^2 + 2.61^2}

 P = 5.22 Kg.m/s

momentum magnitude after collision is equal to P = 5.22 Kg.m/s

What is the length of 0.005 mm in kilometers?
ZanzabumX [31]
The answer would be 5*10^9
.

If we divide \frac{5*10^9}{1*10^6}, it gives us 0.005!

Hope this helped! c:
