On a straight road (taken to be in the x direction) you drive for an hour at 60 km per hour, then quickly speed up to 120 km per

Luda [366]

Answer:

The average velocity is 180 km/hr

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity, u = 60 km per hour

final velocity, v = 120 km per hour

initial time = 1 hour

final time = 2 hour

Initial position = 60 km/h x 1 hour = 60 km

final position = 120 km/h x 2 hour = 240 km

The average velocity is given by;

$V_{avg} = \frac{Final \ position\ - \ Initial \ position}{final \ time\ - \ initial \ time}\\\\V_{avg} = \frac{240km \ - \ 60km}{2hr\ - \ 1hr} \\\\V_{avg} = \frac{180 \ km}{1hr} \\\\V_{avg}= 180 \ km/hr$

Therefore, the average velocity is 180 km/hr

A child in danger of drowning in a river is being carried down-stream by a current that flows uniformly with a speed of 2.20 m/s

zmey [24]

Answer:

The angle is 65.6°.

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed = 2.20 m/s

Distance from the shore= 500 m

Distance from the bottom= 1100 m

Speed of boat = 7.30 m/s

According to figure,

We need to calculate the angle with shore

Using formula of angle

$\tan\theta=\dfrac{y}{x}$

Put the value into the formula

$\tan\theta=\dfrac{500}{1100}$

$\theta=\tan^{-1}(\dfrac{500}{1100})$

$\theta=24.4^{\circ}$

We need to calculate the angle

$\alpha=90-\theta$

Put the value into the formula

$\alpha=90-24.4$

$\alpha=65.6^{\circ}$

Hence, The angle is 65.6°.

A spring on a horizontal surface can be stretched and held 0.2 m from its equilibrium position with a force of 16 N. a. How much

nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

a $W_{3.5} = 490 \ J$

b $W_{2.5} = 250 \ J$

Explanation:

Generally the force constant is mathematically represented as

$k = \frac{F}{x}$

substituting values given in the question

=> $k = \frac{16}{0.2}$

=> $k = 80 \ N /m$

Generally the workdone in stretching the spring 3.5 m is mathematically represented as

$W_{3.5} = \frac{1}{2} * k * (3.5)^2$

=> $W_{3.5} = \frac{1}{2} * 80 * (3.5)^2$

=> $W_{3.5} = 490 \ J$

Generally the workdone in compressing the spring 2.5 m is mathematically represented as

$W_{2.5} = \frac{1}{2} * k * (2.5)^2$

=> $W_{2.5} = \frac{1}{2} * 80 * (2.5)^2$

=> $W_{2.5} = 250 \ J$
