Average speed = (total distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)
Total distance = 69 km + 51 km = 120 km
Total time = 3 hrs + 2 hrs = 5 hrs
Average speed = (120 km) / (5 hrs) = 24 km/hr
Answer:
μ = 0.125
Explanation:
To solve this problem, which is generally asked for the coefficient of friction, we will use the conservation of energy.
Let's start working on the ramp
starting point. Highest point of the ramp
Em₀ = U = m h y
final point. Lower part of the ramp, before entering the rough surface
= K = ½ m v²
as they indicate that there is no friction on the ramp
Em₀ = Em_{f}
m g y = ½ m v²
v = 
we calculate
v = √(2 9.8 0.25)
v = 2.21 m / s
in the rough part we use the relationship between work and kinetic energy
W = ΔK = K_{f} -K₀
as it stops the final kinetic energy is zero
W = -K₀
The work is done by the friction force, which opposes the movement
W = - fr x
friction force has the expression
fr = μ N
let's write Newton's second law for the vertical axis
N-W = 0
N = W = m g
we substitute
-μ m g x = - ½ m v²
μ = 
Let's calculate
μ = 
μ = 0.125
Answer:
density of water is much greater than density of air
Explanation:
when body is in fluid it carries weight which is always equal to upthrust
upthrust is given as
upthrust= density of fluid ×strength of gravitational field g × volume of body in fluid
as volume of ship and aeroplane is same and strength of gravitational field or acceleration due to gravity is same hence upthrust depens upon density of fluid .
density of air is about 1.2 kg/m^3 and density of water is 1000kg/m^3 hence ship carries more load
Because ice is less dense than liquid water,
its melting point is lowered under high pressures.
A long standing theory says that this is what causes ice to be slippery:
As you step on it, the pressure of your weight causes the top layer to my into water.
Answer:
h=17m
v=18.6 m/s
Explanation: The question can be solved by applying kinematic equations of motion
Data
u=0
a=g
t=1.9 secs
firstly to calculate the height

to find the final velocity

The acceleration graph is straight line of equation y=9.8 as acceleration is constant:
Velocity graph is given by y=9.8x ( y as velocity and x as time):
Displacement graph is given by y=4.9x^2 ( x as time, y as displacement):
These graphs are only applicable from x=0 to x=1.9 ... ignore the other graph sections
