Answer:

12 m/s

Explanation:

Speed is distance moved per unit time and expressed as

S=d/t

S is speed, d is distance and t is time.

When at rest for five minutes, distance moved is zero hence speed is 0/5=0 m/s

When having moved 120 m for 5 s then speed is

S=120/5=24 m/s

Average speed is the average of these two speeda

Average speed=(24+0)÷2=24/2=12 m/s

Therefore, average speed is 12 m/s

Answer:

The speed of water flow inside the pipe at point - 2 = 34.67 m / sec

Explanation:

Given data

Diameter at point - 1 = 3.2 cm

Velocity at point - 1 = 1.1 m / sec = 110 cm / sec

Diameter at point - 2 = 0.57 cm

Velocity at point - 2 = ??

We know that from the continuity equation the rate of flow is constant inside  a pipe between two points.

Thus

⇒ A_{1} × V_{1} = A_{2} × V_{2}

⇒  \frac{\pi }{4} × d_{1} ^{2} × V_{1} =

⇒  d_{1} ^{2} × V_{1} =  d_{2} ^{2}  × V_{2}

⇒  (3.2)^{2} × 110 = (0.57)^{2} × V_{2}

⇒ V_{2} = 3467 cm / sec

⇒ V_{2} = 34.67 m / sec  

Thus the speed of water flow inside the pipe at point - 2 = 34.67 m / sec

At what speed would a 3.00 x 10^4 kg airplane have to fly and with a momentum of 1.60 x 10^9 kg.m/s
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

5.3×10⁴ m/s

Explanation:

From the question,

Momentum = mass× velocity

M = mV................ Equation 1

Where M = momentum of the airplane, m = mass of the airplane, V = Velocity of the airplane

make V the subject of the equation

V = M/m.................. Equation 2

Given: M = 1.6×10⁹ Kg.m/s, m = 3.0×10⁴ kg

Substitute these values into equation 2

V = 1.6×10⁹/3.0×10⁴

V = 5.3×10⁴ m/s
