Part a

Answer: 17.58 km/h

Average speed=\frac{Total\hspace{1mm}Distance}{Total\hspace{1mm}Time}

Total Distance =10 km

Total time =0.5689 h

\Rightarrow Average speed=\frac{10\hspace{1mm}km}{0.5689\hspace{1mm}h}=17.6 \hspace{1mm}km/h

Part b

Answer: 17.626 km/h

Average speed=\frac{Total\hspace{1mm}Distance}{Total\hspace{1mm}Time}

Total Distance =42.195 km

Total time =2.3939 h

\Rightarrow Average speed=\frac{42.195\hspace{1mm}km}{2.3939\hspace{1mm}h}=17.626\hspace{1mm}km/h

How does increasing the distance between charged objects affect the electric force between them? the electric force increases be
konstantin123 [22]

the electric force decreases because the distance has an indirect relationship to the force

Explanation:

The electric force between two objects is given by

F=k \frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}

where

k is the Coulomb's constant

q1 and q2 are the charges of the two objects

r is the distance between the two objects

As we can see from the formula, the magnitude of the force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance: so, when the distance between the object increases, the magnitude of the force decreases.

A boat travels at 30 mph for a huge, solid cliff that is about 3,000 meters away. When the horn on the boat makes a toot, you ca
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:The frequency of the echo is slightly decreased

Explanation:

Given

speed of boat =30\ mph

cliff is 3000\ m away

when boat is still , suppose t is the time taken by the echo to reach observer on the boat

But as soon as boat starts moving  the distance between cliff and boat decreasing and time for echo to reach observer also decreases

and we know time \propto \frac{1}{frequency}

therefore frequency of the echo slightly decreased.
