Answer:

x = 45 MPH

Explanation:

given,

Average speed of the first half = 75 MPH

Average speed of entire ride = 60 MPH

Average speed of the second half = ?

let the average speed of the second half = x MPH

now,

average of entire ride is given as 60 mph so,

 \dfrac{75+x}{2} = 60

 75+x= 2\times 60

       75 + x = 120

         x = 120 -75

        x = 45 MPH

hence, the average speed of the second half comes out to be 45 MPH.

Two or more velocities add by ____?<br><br> Plz help
VladimirAG [237]
By vector addition.
In fact, velocity is a vector, with a magnitude intensity, a direction and a verse, so we can't simply do an algebraic sum of the two (or more velocities). 
First we need to decompose each velocity on both x- and y-axis (if we are on a 2D-plane), then we should do the algebraic sum of all the components on the x- axis and of all the components on the y-axis, to find the resultants on x- and y-axis. And finally, the magnitude of the resultant will be given by
R= \sqrt{(R_x)^2+(R_y)^2}
where Rx and Rx are the resultants on x- and y-axis. The direction of the resultant will be given by
\tan \alpha =  \frac{R_y}{R_x}
where \alpha is its direction with respect to the x-axis.

A metal rod of length (L) moves with velocity (v), perpendicular to its length, in a magnetic field B, which is perpendicular to
Alborosie

Explanation:

If a metal rod of length L moves with velocity v is moving perpendicular to its length, in a magnetic field B, the induced emf is given by :

\epsilon=Blv

The electric field in the conductor is given by :

E=\dfrac{\epsilon}{l}\\\\E=\dfrac{Blv}{l}\\\\E=Bv

It is clear that the electric field is independent of the length of the rod. If the length of the rod is doubled, the electric field in the rod remains the same.

An electron is placed 5.40 cm due north of a charged sphere and experienced a force of 8.30 x 10^-13 N due north. What is the el
ira [324]

Answer:

The electric field is E = 5.1*10^6N/C.

Explanation:

The force F on a charge q in an electric field E is given by

F = qE,

which can be rearranged to give

E = \dfrac{F}{q }

Now, the force on the electron is F = 8.30*10^{-13}N, and its charge is

q = 1.6*10^{-19}C; therefore,

E = \dfrac{8.30*10^{-13}N}{1.6*10^{-19}C}

\boxed{E = 5.1*10^6N/C}
