A cyclist travels 36km in 3 hours. What is the cyclist’s average speed?

Physics
1 answer:
dybincka [34]3 years ago

To determine what the cyclists average speed is, simply divide the distance the cyclist has travelled by the time the cyclist has traveled for.

Assuming that this is the average rate the cyclist is moving at it would be 12 km/hr.

A car is traveling at a speed of 38.0 m/s on an interstate highway where the speed limit is 75.0 mi/h. Is the driver exceeding t
lidiya [134]

Answer:

Yes, the car driver is exceeding the given limit.

Explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

  • Speed of the car, v = 38.0 m/s.
  • Speed limit of the highway, \rm v_o=75.0\ mi/h.

<h2><u>Converting the speed limit from mi/h to m/s:</u></h2>

We know,

1 mi = 1.60934 km.

1 km = 1000 m.

Therefore, 1 mi = 1.60934 × 1000 m = 1609.34 m.

1 hour = 60 minutes.

1 minute = 60 seconds.

Therefore, 1 hour = 60 × 60 seconds = 3600 seconds.

Using these values,

\rm 1\ \dfrac{mi}{h}=\dfrac{1609.34\ m}{3600\ s}=0.447\ m/s.

Therefore,

\rm v_o = 75.0\ mi/h=75.0\times 0.447=33.52\ m/s.

Clearly,

\rm v_o

which means, the car driver is exceeding the given speed limit.

The A string of a violin is a little too tightly stretched. Beats at 4.00 per second are heard when the string is sounded togeth
Basile [38]

Answer:

T=2.5*10^{-3}s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Beat frequency F_b=4

Frequency F=400Hz

Generally the equation for Frequency of the violin is mathematically given by

 f_v=F_b+F

 f_v=4+400Hz

 f_v=404Hz

Therefore the period of the violin string oscillations is

 T=\frac{1}{f_v}

 T=\frac{1}{404}

 T=2.5*10^{-3}s

monochromatic light from a distant source is incident on a slit 0.75 mm wide. on screen 2 m away, the distance from the central
hjlf

Displacement from the center line for minimum intensity is 1.35 mm , width of the slit  is 0.75 so  Wavelength of the light  is 506.25.

<h3>How to find Wavelength of the light?</h3>

When a wave is bent by an obstruction whose dimensions are similar to the wavelength, diffraction is observed. We can disregard the effects of extremes because the Fraunhofer diffraction is the most straightforward scenario and the obstacle is a long, narrow slit.

This is a straightforward situation in which we can apply the

Fraunhofer single slit diffraction equation:

y = mλD/a

Where:

y = Displacement from the center line for minimum intensity =  1.35 mm

λ =  wavelength of the light.

D = distance

a = width of the slit = 0.75

m = order number = 1

Solving for λ

λ = y + a/ mD

Changing the information that the issue has provided:

λ = 1.35 * 10^-3 + 0.75 * 10^-3 / 1*2  

=5.0625 *10^-7 = 506.25

so

Wavelength of the light 506.25.
