Answer:

B) $v = 6.25\frac{km}{hr}$ due east

Explanation:

Conceptual analysis

The average speed (v) is defined as the relationship between the displacement (d) that a body made and the total time (t) it took to perform it and is calculated by the following formula:

$v = \frac{d}{t}$ Formula (1)

v: velocity in m/s

d: Displacement (m)

t: Time (s)

Known data

We know the following data

d = 25 km

t = 4.0 hr

Problem development

We replace data in formula (1):

$v =\frac{25km}{4hr}$

$v = 6.25\frac{km}{hr}$

Jill can use a force of 12.0 N to lift a single box up 5.00 m. How many of these boxes must she lift it in a minute to use 60.0

Mama L [17]

Answer:

60 boxes

Explanation:

The work done by lifting a single box is equal to the force applied (the weight of the box) times the displacement of the box:

$W_1 = Fd=(12.0 N)(5.00 m)=60 J$

Power is related to the work done by the equation:

$P=\frac{W}{t}$

where W is the work done and t is the time. In this problem, we are told that the power used is P=60.0 W, while the time taken is t = 1 min = 60 s, so the total work done must be

$W=Pt=(60.0 W)(60 s)=3600 J$
