The duck at 12m/s has a greater speed than the heron which travels at 10m/s

Answer:

The speed of duck is greater than the speed of heron.

Explanation:

$Speed(S)=\frac{Distance(D)}{Time(T)}$

Speed of heron : S

Distance covered by herons in 60 seconds = 600 m

D = 600 m . T = 60 seconds

$S=\frac{600 m}{60 s}=10 m/s$

Speed of duck : S'

Distance covered by herons in 5 seconds = 60 m

D' = 60 m . T' = 5 seconds

$S'=\frac{60 m}{5 s}=12 m/s$

12 m/s > 10 m/s

S' > S

The speed of duck is greater than the speed of heron.

OleMash [197]

Answer:

W = 0.060 J

v_2 = 0.18 m/s

Explanation:

solution:

for the spring:

W = 1/2*k*x_1^2 - 1/2*k*x_2^2

x_1 = -0.025 m and x_2 = 0

W = 1/2*k*x_1^2 = 1/2*(250 N/m)(-0.028m)^2

W = 0.060 J

the work-energy theorem,

W_tot = K_2 - K_1 = ΔK

with K = 1/2*m*v^2

v_2 = √2*W/m

v_2 = 0.18 m/s

In which one of the following situations does a car have a WESTWARD acceleration? The car travels westward and slows down. The c

DENIUS [597]

Explanation:

Let east direction is negative and west direction is positive. The acceleration of an object is given by :

$a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}$

Where

v is the final speed

u is the initial speed

t is the time taken

As the car decelerates, the final speed of the car is less as compared to the initial speed. As a result, its acceleration is negative. It means the car travels eastward and slows down. Hence, this is the required solution.

Why is MA always less than VR?

jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

$\boxed{ \bold{ \boxed{ \sf{see \: below}}}}$

Explanation:

MA ( Mechanical Advantage ) is always less than VR ( Velocity Ratio ) because MA is reduced by friction but VR is not affected by friction.

Hope I helped!

Best regards! :D
