Answer:

The average speed for both days, while driving is 42.77 miles/hr.

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance first day = 500 miles

Distance second day = 270 miles

According to question,

The distance covered by the john in 10 hours = 500 miles

Next day ,

The distance covered by the john in 8 hours = 270 miles

We need to calculate the average speed for both days

Using formula of the average speed

$v_{avg}=\dfrac{D}{T}$

Where, D = total distance

T = total time

Put the value into the formula

$v_{avg}=\dfrac{500+270}{10+8}$

$v_{avg}=\dfrac{770}{18}$

$v_{avg}=42.77\ miles/hr$

Hence, The average speed for both days, while driving is 42.77 miles/hr.

A beryllium-9 ion has a positive charge that is double the charge of a proton, and a mass of 1.50 ✕ 10−26 kg. At a particular in

seropon [69]

Answer:

Magnetic force, $F = 3.52\times 10^{-13}\ N$

Explanation:

Given that,

A beryllium-9 ion has a positive charge that is double the charge of a proton, $q=2\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C=3.2\times 10^{-19}\ C$

Speed of the ion in the magnetic field, $v=5\times 10^6\ m/s$

Its velocity makes an angle of 61° with the direction of the magnetic field at the ion's location.

The magnitude of the field is 0.220 T.

We need to find the magnitude of the magnetic force on the ion. It is given by :

$F=qvB\\\\F=3.2\times 10^{-19}\times 5\times 10^6\times 0.22\\\\F=3.52\times 10^{-13}\ N$

So, the magnitude of magnetic force on the ion is $3.52\times 10^{-13}\ N$ .

A small balloon is released at a point 150 feet away from an observer, who is on level ground. If the balloon goes straight up a

Elza [17]

Answer:

$\dfrac{dz}{dt}=0.65\ ft/s$

Explanation:

Given that

x= 150 ft

$\dfrac{dy}{dt}= 7\ ft/s$

y= 14 ft

From the diagram

$z^2=x^2+y^2$

When ,x= 150 ft and y= 14 ft

$z^2=150^2+14^2$

$z=\sqrt{150^2+15^2}$

z=150.74 ft

$z^2=x^2+y^2$

By differentiating with respect to time t

$2z\dfrac{dz}{dt}= 2x\dfrac{dx}{dt}+2y\dfrac{dy}{dt}$

$z\dfrac{dz}{dt}= x\dfrac{dx}{dt}+y\dfrac{dy}{dt}$

Here x is constant that is why

$\dfrac{dx}{dt}=0$

$z\dfrac{dz}{dt}= y\dfrac{dy}{dt}$

Now by putting the values in the above equation we get

$150.74\times \dfrac{dz}{dt}=14\times 7$

$\dfrac{dz}{dt}=\dfrac{14\times 7}{150.74}\ ft/s$

$\dfrac{dz}{dt}=0.65\ ft/s$

Therefore the distance between balloon and observer increasing with 0.65 ft/s.
