Sandy is on a road trip. She leaves at 8:00 AM. It takes her 2 hours to drive 200 kilometers. She stops at a rest stop for half

an hour. Then, she drives for 100 more kilometers, which takes her an hour and a half. What is Sandy's average velocity?

The average velocity of Sandy is given by the total distance covered S divided by the total time taken t:
v= \frac{S}{t}

The total distance covered is
S=200 km+0+100 km=300 km
while the total time taken is 2 hours + half an hour (for the rest) + 1 hour and half, so
t=2h+0.5h+1.5 h=4 h
Therefore, the average velocity is 
v= \frac{S}{t}= \frac{300 km}{4 h}=75 km/h

On a distant planet, golf is just as popular as it is on earth. A golfer tees off and drives the ball 3.00 times as far as he wo
Neko [114]

Answer:

(a) Maximum height = 53.88 meters

(b) Range of the ball = 924.36 meters

Explanation:

The ball has been launched at a speed = 44.4 meters per second

Angle of the ball with the horizontal = 25°

Horizontal component of the speed of the ball = 44.4cos25° = 40.24 meters per second

Vertical component = 44.4sin25° = 18.76 meters per second

We know vertical component of the speed decides the height of the ball so by the law of motion,

v² = u² - 2gh

where v = velocity at the maximum height = 0

u = initial velocity = 18.76 meter per second

g = gravitational force = 9.8 meter per second²

Now we plug in the values in the given equation

0 = (18.76)² - 2(9.8)(h)

19.6h = 352.10

h = \frac{352.10}{19.6}

h = 17.96 meters

By another equation,

v=ut-\frac{1}{2}gt^{2}

Now we plug in the values again

0=(18.76)t-\frac{1}{2}(9.8)t^{2}

18.76t = 4.9t²

18.76 = 4.9t

t = \frac{18.76}{4.9}=3.83seconds

Since time t is the time to cover half of the range.

Therefore, time taken by the ball to cover the complete range = 2×3.83 = 7.66 seconds

  So the range of the ball = Horizontal component of the velocity × time

                                           = 40.24 × 7.66

                                           = 308.12 meters

This we have calculated all for our planet.

Now we take other planet.

(a) Since the golfer drives the ball 3 times as far as he would have on earth then maximum height achieved by the ball = 17.96 × 3 = 53.88 meters

(b) Range of the ball = 3×308.12 = 924.36 meters

Can someone please explain how to calculate the IMA of a lever?
aniked [119]

Answer:

The ideal mechanical advantage equals the length of the effort arm divided by the length of the resistance arm of a lever. In general, the IMA = the resistance force, Fr, divided by the effort force, Fe. IMA also equals the distance over which the effort is applied, de, divided by the distance the load travels, dr.

Select the correct answer. What do scientists use to determine the temperature of a star? A. Thermometer B. Distance from Earth
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

Color

Explanation:

Thus, for stars, considering them as “black bodies”, we can get an approximate figure for their temperature by measuring their dominant frequency (color). Technically scientists measure the brightness of the blue light and that of red light from the star, and from this they can calculate the temperature of the star.
