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

Physics

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.

The hydrocarbon used to manufacture foam plastics is called styrene. Analysis shows composition to be 92.25% C and 7.75% H. Anal
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

molecular formula = C_{8} H_{8}

Explanation:

Given data

c = 92.25%

H = 7.75%

molar mass = 104 g/mol

to find out

the empirical and molecular formula for styrene

solution

we know that

styrene 1 g contain = 0.9225 g C and 0.0775 g H

so

C = 104 × 0.9225 g / 12 g/mol

C = 7.995 mol = approx 8 mol

and

H = 104 × 0.0775 g / 1 g/mol

H = 8.06 mol = approx 8 mol

so we say that 1 mole of styrene  have 8 mole of C and H

so

molecular formula = C_{8} H_{8}

The system needs an ordinary friction-based brake to bring the train to a full stop. Explain why the magnetic brake is not very
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

The slower the train is moving, the less are the changes of the magnetic flux, thus the eddy currents become weaker.

Explanation:

A magnetic brakes is not a very efficient way of braking when a train is moving slowly because at low speeds, the changes in the magnetic flux are very less and so it causes the eddy current to become weaker.

Let us find the drag force which is proportional to the velocity of two conducting plates.

The EMF that is induced in the eddy currents are : $E=v(B \times L)$

The force which is due to the induced magnetic field is, $F=l(L \times B)$

Therefore, $F=\frac{E}{R} \times (L \times B)$

                 $F=\frac{v(B \times L)}{R} \times (L \times B)$

Here, force is directly proportional to the velocity of the two conducting plates.

Therefore, we can say that when the speed of the train is low, the magnetic flux changes are less and thus the eddy currents are weaker.

A 13500 kg jet airplane is flying through some high winds. At some point in time, the airplane is pointing due north, while the
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer

given,

mass of the jet airplane = 13500 kg

Force on the plane = 35700 N due north

force from wind  = 15300 N in direction 80.0° south of west.

Force = 35700 \vec{j} N

force by wind = 15300(-cos \theta \vec{i}-sin \theta \vec{j}) N

                       = 15300(-cos 80^0 \vec{i}-sin 80^0 \vec{j}) N

net force on the jet airplane(ma)

          m a = 35700 \vec{j} + 15300(-cos 80^0 \vec{i}-sin 80^0 \vec{j})

          \vec{a} = \dfrac{35700}{13500} \vec{j} + \dfrac{15300}{13500}(-cos 80^0 \vec{i}-sin 80^0 \vec{j})

          \vec{a} = 2.64\vec{j} -0.197 \vec{i} - 1.116 sin 80^0 \vec{j})

           \vec{a} = -0.197 \vec{i} + 1.524 \vec{j}

a = \sqrt{-0.197^2+1.524^2}

a = 1.54 m/s²

\theta = tan^{-1}(\dfrac{-1.524}{0.197})

\theta = -82.63^0
