Answer:

Explanation:

Average velocity = Displacement/Time

ΔS = -10+6

ΔS = -4m

Given tme = 30s

Average velocity = -4/30

Average velocity = -0.13m/s

Average speed = Distance/Time

Total distance covered = 10m+6m

Total distance covered = 16m

Average speed = 16/30

Average speed = 0.53m/s

the roque requried to turn the crank on an ice cream maker is 4.50 N.m how much work does it take to turn the crank through 300

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

the work required to turn the crank at the given revolutions is 8,483.4 J

Explanation:

Given;

torque required to turn the crank, T = 4.50 N.m

number of revolutions, = 300 turns

The work required to turn the crank is given as;

W = 2πT

W = 2 x 3.142 x 4.5

W = 28.278 J

1 revolution = 28.278 J

300 revlotions = ?

= 300 x 28.278 J

= 8,483.4 J

Therefore, the work required to turn the crank at the given revolutions is 8,483.4 J

A spring is 6.0cm long when it is not stretched, and 10cm long when a 7.0N force is applied. What force is needed to make it 20c

Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

Approximately $25\; {\rm N}$ (assuming that this spring is ideal.)

Explanation:

The displacement of a spring is the new length of the spring relative to the original length.

For example:

When the $6.0\; {\rm cm}$ -spring in this question is stretched to $10\; {\rm cm}$ , the displacement is $x = (10\; {\rm cm} - 6.0\; {\rm cm})$ .
Likewise, if this spring is stretched to $20\; {\rm cm}$ , the displacement would be $(20\; {\rm cm} - 6\; {\rm cm})$ .

If this spring is ideal, the force on the spring would be proportional to the displacement of the spring. In other words, if a force of $F_{\text{a}}$ displaces this spring by $x_{\text{a}}$ , while a force of $F_{\text{b}}$ displaces this spring by $x_{\text{b}}$ , then:

$\displaystyle \frac{F_{\text{a}}}{x_{\text{a}}} = \frac{F_{\text{b}}}{x_{\text{b}}}$ .

In this question, it is given that a force of $F_{\text{a}} = 7.0 \; {\rm N}$ would stretch this spring by $x_{\text{a}} = (10\; {\rm cm} - 6.0\; {\rm cm})$ . Thus, the force $F_{\text{b}}$ required to stretch this spring by $x_{\text{a}} = (20\; {\rm cm} - 6.0\; {\rm cm})$ would satisfy:

$\displaystyle \frac{7.0\; {\rm N}}{10\; {\rm cm} - 6.0\; {\rm cm}}= \frac{F_{\text{b}}}{20\; {\rm cm} - 6.0\; {\rm cm}}$ .

Rearrange and solve for $F_{\text{b}}$ :

$\begin{aligned} F_{\text{b}} &= \frac{7.0\; {\rm N}}{10\; {\rm cm} - 6.0\; {\rm cm}} \, (20\; {\rm cm} - 6.0\; {\rm cm}) \\ &\approx 25\; {\rm N}\end{aligned}$ .

Recall the topography of the Sierra Nevada Mountains east of California's central valley. Which of the following locations would

marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

3. western slope

Explanation:

If we investigate the physical features (such as natural and artificial features) of the Sierra Nevada Mountains located at the California's central valley eastern part, the western slope has the highest value of the precipitation level yearly. This is due to the location of the slope and the relevant conditions such as temperature and humidity.

A bullet leaves a gun with a horizontal velocity of 100 m/s. Calculate the distance it would travel in 1.3 seconds.

salantis [7]

Answer:

130m

Explanation:

You just have to multiply velocity by the time traveled:

100m/s * 1.3s = 130m!
