Answer:

40mph

Explanation:

1st leg DATA:

time = 3 hrs ; speed = r mph ; distance = 3r miles

------------

2nd leg DATA:

speed = r mph ; distance = 12 miles

 

--------------------------------

3r + 12 = 132

3r = 120

rate = 40 mph

Answer:

2.5 m/s²

Explanation:

Using the formula, v = u + at ( v = Final velocity; u = Initial velocity; t = Time; a = Acceleration)

25 = 0 + 10a

a = 25/10 = 2.5 m/s²

How is pressure measured? question 1 options: pressure is measured as force per inch. pressure is measured as force per gram. pr
natita [175]

Pressure is measured as force per unit area, which is the third option.

<h3>What is pressure?</h3>

Pressure is amount of force that is applied over a given area divided by the size of this area.

Pressure is calculated by multiplying the force applied on the object by the area covered.

Since force is measured in Newtons (N) and area is measured in m², the unit of pressure is Nm².

Therefore, pressure is measured as force per unit area.

Three children are riding on the edge of a merry-go-round that is 100 kg, has a 1.60-m radius, and is spinning at 20.0 rpm. The
Kay [80]

Answer:

25.33 rpm

Explanation:

M = 100 kg

m1 = 22 kg

m2 = 28 kg

m3 = 33 kg

r = 1.60 m

f = 20 rpm

Let the new angular speed in rpm is f'.

According to the law of conservation of angular momentum, when no external torque is applied, then the angular momentum of the system remains constant.

Initial angular momentum = final angular momentum

(1/2 x M x r^2 + m1 x r^2 + m2 x r^2 + m3 x r^2) x ω =

                                  (1/2 x M x r^2 + m1 x r^2 + m3 x r^2 ) x ω'

(1/2 M + m1 + m2 + m3) x 2 x π x f = (1/2 M + m1 + m3) x 2 x π x f'

( 1/2 x 100 + 22 + 28 + 33) x 20 = (1/2 x 100 + 22 + 33) x f'

2660 = 105 x f'

f' = 25.33 rpm
