a. This velocity in kilometers per hour is 1674 km/h

b. This velocity in kilometers per day is 40176 km/day

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Acceleration is rate of change of velocity.

\large {\boxed {a = \frac{v - u}{t} } }

\large {\boxed {d = \frac{v + u}{2}~t } }

<em>a = acceleration ( m/s² )</em>

<em>v = final velocity ( m/s )</em>

<em>u = initial velocity ( m/s )</em>

<em>t = time taken ( s )</em>

<em>d = distance ( m )</em>

Let us now tackle the problem !

If earth rotates with a velocity of about 465 m/s at the equator , then it means that earth covers 465 metres in 1 second.

465 metres = 465 / 1000 kilometres = 0.465 kilometres

1 hour = 3600 seconds → 1 second = 1 / 3600 hour

1 day = 24 hours = 86400 seconds → 1 second =  1 / 86400 hour

The velocity in kilometres per hour can be calculated as following:

velocity = 465 ~ m \div 1 ~ s

velocity = 0.465 ~ km \div \frac{1}{3600} ~ h

velocity = 0.465 \div \frac{1}{3600} ~ km/h

velocity = 0.465 \times 3600 ~ km/h

\boxed {velocity = 1674 ~ km/h}

The velocity in kilometres per day can be calculated as following:

velocity = 465 ~ m \div 1 ~ s

velocity = 0.465 ~ km \div \frac{1}{86400} ~ day

velocity = 0.465 \div \frac{1}{86400} ~ km/day

velocity = 0.465 \times 86400 ~ km/day

\boxed {velocity = 40176 ~ km/day}

<h2>→ 465 m/s = 1674 km/h = 40176 km/day</h2>

The given velocity is 465 m/s.

Part a.
465 \,  \frac{m}{s} =(465 \times 10^{-3} \,  \frac{km}{s})*( 3600 \,  \frac{s}{h} ) = 1674 \,  \frac{km}{h}
Answer: 1674 km/h

Part b.
1674  \frac{km}{h} = (1674 \,  \frac{km}{h})*(24 \,  \frac{h}{day}  ) = 40176 \,  \frac{km}{day}
Answer: 40,176 km/day.

0.125 C of charge flow out of a
zimovet [89]

Answer:

Resistance = 252.53 Ohms

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Charge = 0.125 C

Voltage = 5 V

Time = 6.3 seconds

To find the resistance;

First of all, we would determine the current flowing through the battery;

Quantity of charge, Q = current * time

0.125 = current * 6.3

Current = 0.125/6.3

Current = 0.0198 A

Next, we find the resistance;

Resistance = voltage/current

Resistance = 5/0.0198

Resistance = 252.53 Ohms

Describe in terms of kinetic and potential energy what happens if an apple falls from a tree and comes to rest on the ground( wr
Lunna [17]

Answer:

An apple hanging at a branch has potential energy due its position. It can be written as PE= mgh where m is the mass of the apple h is the distance between the apple and the ground and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

as the apple falls from the tree it loses its potential energy and gains kinetic energy due to the movement of the apple. Its kinetic energy will be given by KE= 1/2mv²  where m is the mass of the apple and v is the speed with which the apple falls.

As the apple falls the height or the distance reduces and PE becomes reduces. But it gains Kinetic energy due to its speed.

But when the apple falls to the ground and comes to rest its kinetic energy is converted to potential energy.

thus the total energy remains the same. it changes from one form to the other but remains unaltered.

A wagon full of manure accidentally rolls down a driveway for 5.0m while a person pushes against the wagon with a force of 420 N
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

2100 J

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Force acting on the object, F = 420 N

Distance moved by object, d = 5m

The change in kinetic energy of an object is equal to the work done by a force acting on the object:

W = F * d

∆KE = F * d

∆KE = 420 * 5

∆KE = 2100 J

The volume of a fixed mass of gas is directly proportional to its
Leni [432]

Answer: Charles's law

Explanation:

Charles's law is one of the gas laws, and it explains the effect of temperature changes on the volume of a given mass of gas at a constant pressure. Usually, the volume of a gas decreases as the temperature decreases and increases as the temperature also increases.

Mathematically, Charles's law can be expressed as:

V ∝ T

V = kT or (V/T) = k

where v is volume, T is temperature in Kelvin, and a k is a constant.
