A bicycle traveled 150 meters west from point A to point B. Then it took the same route and came back to point A. It took a tota

l of 2 minutes for the bicycle to return to point A. What is the average speed and average velocity of the bicycle? A. The average speed is 2.5 meters/second, and the average velocity is 2.5 meters/second east. B. The average speed is 0 meters/second, and the average velocity is 2.5 meters/second east. C. The average speed and average velocity are both 0 meters/second. D. The average speed is 2.5 meters/second, and the average velocity is 0 meters/second.

Answer

D. The average speed is 2.5 meters/second, and the average velocity is 0 meters/second.

The difference between speed and velocity is that, speed is a scalar quantity while velocity is a vector quantity.

Average speed = total distance/Total time

                          = (150 + 150) / (2×60)

                          = 300/120

                           = 2.5 m/s

Average velocity = Total displacement/ Total time

                             = (150 + -150) / (2 × 60)

                            = 0/120

                            = 0 m/s

Explain why electromagnetic forces are essential to forming compounds.
KonstantinChe [14]

Explanation:

formation of compounds because the electric forces compel the atoms to attract each other and formed bonds which leads to the formation of chemical compounds. The attractive or repulsive interaction between any two charged bodies is known as an electric force so the attraction between two opposite charged atoms causes the formation of compounds so we can conclude that electric forces are important for the formation of compounds.

Can physics measure the work a porter does? What do you need to know to measure a porters work? What produces work, and how is p
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

According to physics, the work done by porter is zero but in reality porter gets tired as muscular energy is being used up.

In physics, work is the dot product of force and displacement. when the porter moves with the luggage, the weight act downwards while the porter moves forward. The angle between force and displacement is 90°. Thus, work done by the porter is zero.

The muscles are doing work in this case which is not calculated in physics.

Power is the rate of energy consumed during the work.

The tension in a string from which a 4.0 kg object is suspended in an elevator is equal to 44 N. What is the acceleration of the
Ronch [10]

Answer: 1

Explanation:

Given

Tension is the string T=44\ N

mass of object m=4\ kg

Tension is greater than the weight of the object i.e. elevator is moving upward

we can write

\Rightarrow T-mg=ma\\\Rightarrow T=m(g+a)\\\Rightarrow 44=4(10+a)\\\Rightarrow 11=10+a\\\Rightarrow a=1\ m/s^2
