Answer:

The average speed for the whole journey is 49.5 miles per hour.

Explanation:

Step 1 :

Here, both the ways, he covers the same distance. Then, the formula to find average speed is

= 2xy / (x+y)

Step 2 :

x ----> Rate at which he travels from New York to Washington

x = 45

y ----> Rate at which he travels from New York to Washington

y = 55

Step 3 :

So, the average speed is

= (2 ⋅ 45 ⋅ 55) / (45 + 55)

= 4950 / 100

= 49.5

Which unit is equivalent to j/s

mrs_skeptik [129]

To be honest, there's no sure way to answer that, because you haven't defined your terms and we can't be sure of what j or s might be.

Tell you what I'll do:. I'll assume definitions for j and s, and then I'll answer the question that I invented.

Assume that j stands for Joule, the unit of energy. And assume that s stands for 'second', the unit of time.

Then j/s is the rate of transferring energy or doing work.

Its unit is the Watt, equivalent to 1 Joule per second.

In your system of notation, it would be 'w' .

When you float an ice cube in water, you notice that 90% of it is submerged beneath the surface. Now suppose you put the same ic

Gwar [14]

Answer:

option (c)

Explanation:

90% of the body is submerged in water.

Now it is immersed in an unknown liquid whose density is less than the density of water.

Buoyant force acting on the body depends on the volume immersed, density of liquid and gravity.

As the density of liquid is less than the density of water, so the buoyant force acting on the body by the unknown liquid is less than water. So it is submerged less than 90% in this liquid.

A physical pendulum in the form of a planar object moves in simple harmonic motion with a frequency of 0.680 Hz. The pendulum ha

Answer:

Therefore, the moment of inertia is:

$I=0.37 \: kgm^{2}$

Explanation:

The period of an oscillation equation of a solid pendulum is given by:

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{I}{Mgd}}$ (1)

Where:

I is the moment of inertia
M is the mass of the pendulum
d is the distance from the center of mass to the pivot
g is the gravity

Let's solve the equation (1) for I

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{I}{Mgd}}$

$I=Mgd(\frac{T}{2\pi})^{2}$

Before find I, we need to remember that

$T = \frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{0.680}=1.47\: s$

Now, the moment of inertia will be:

$I=2*9.81*0.340(\frac{1.47}{2\pi})^{2}$

Therefore, the moment of inertia is:

$I=0.37 \: kgm^{2}$

I hope it helps you!

The photographer realizes that with the lens she is currently using, she can't fit the entire landscape she is trying to photogr

dexar [7]

She should use shorter focal length to fit the entire landscape which she is trying to photograph into her picture.

What is focal length?

The focal length is a measure of how strongly the system converges or diverges light.

A positive focal length indicates that a system converges light, while a negative focal length indicates that the system diverges light.

For a standard rectilinear lens,

FOV = 2 arctan (x/2f)

FOV ∝ 1 / f

where x is the diagonal of the film.

Focal length (f) and field of view (FOV) of a lens are inversely proportional.

From the equation we can say that,

A shorter focal length gives you a wide angle of view which allows more view to fit in the frame.

Hence,

She should use shorter focal length to fit the entire landscape which she is trying to photograph into her picture.
