A car is making a 50 mi trip. It travels the first half of the total distance 25.0 mi at 7.00 mph and the last half of the total

worty [1.4K]

Answer:

a) The total time of the trip is 4.05 h.

b) The average speed of the car is 12.35 mi/h.

c) The total time of the trip is 1.69 h.

Explanation:

Hi there!

a) The equation of traveled distance for a car traveling at constant speed is the following:

x= v · t

Where:

x = traveled distance.

v = velocity.

t = time.

Solving the equation for t, we can find the time it takes to travel a given distance "x" at a velocity "v":

x/v = t

So, the time it takes the car to travel the first half of the distance will be:

t1 = 25.0 mi / 7.00 mi/h

And for the second half of the distance:

t2= 25.0 mi / 52.00 mi / h

The total time will be:

total time = t1 + t2 = 25.0 mi / 7.00 mi/h + 25.0 mi / 52.00 mi / h

total time = 4.05 h

The total time of the trip is 4.05 h.

b) The average speed (a.s) is calculated as the traveled distance (d) divided by the time it takes to travel that distance (t). In this case, the traveled distance is 50 mi and the time is 4.05 h. Then:

a.s = d/t

a.s = 50 mi / 4.05 h

a.s = 12.35 mi/h

The average speed of the car is 12.35 mi/h

c) Let's write the equations of traveled distance for both halves of the trip:

For the first half, you traveled a distance d1 in a time t1 at 7.00 mph:

7.00 mi/h = d1/t1

Solving for d1:

7.00 mi/h · t1 = d1

For the second half, you traveled a distance d2 in a time t2 at 52.00 mph.

52.00 mi/h = d2/t2

52.00 mi/h · t2 = d2

We know that d1 + d2 = 50 mi and that t1 and t2 are equal to t/2 where t is the total time:

d1 + d2 = 50 mi

52.00 mi/h · t/2 + 7.00 mi/h · t/2 = 50 mi

Solving for t:

29.5 mi/h · t = 50 mi

t = 50 mi / 29.5 mi/h

t = 1.69 h

The total time of the trip is 1.69 h.

A 3.53-g lead bullet traveling at 428 m/s strikes a target, converting its kinetic energy into thermal energy. Its initial tempe

Taya2010 [7]

Complete question:

A 3.53-g lead bullet traveling at 428 m/s strikes a target, converting its kinetic energy into thermal energy. Its initial temperature is 40.0°C. The specific heat is 128 J/(kg · °C), latent heat of fusion is 24.5 kJ/kg, and the melting point of lead is 327°C.

(a) Find the available kinetic energy of the bullet. J

(b) Find the heat required to melt the bullet. J

Answer:

Part (a) the available kinetic energy of the bullet is 323.32 J

Part (b) the heat required to melt the bullet is 216.17 J

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the bullet = 3.53 g = 0.00353 kg

velocity of the bullet = 428 m/s

initial temperature of the bullet = 40.0°C

final temperature of the bullet = 327°C

specific heat capacity, c= 128 J/(kg · °C)

latent heat of fusion, Hf = 24.5 kJ/kg

Part (a) the available kinetic energy of the bullet. J

KE = ¹/₂ × mv²

KE = ¹/₂ × 0.00353 × 428²

= 323.32 J

Part (b) the heat required to melt the bullet. J

This is the thermal energy required to increase the temperature of the bullet and the heat energy required to melt the bullet.

Quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of the bullet:

Q = mcΔT

= 0.00353 × 128 × (327-40)

= 0.00353 × 128 × 287

= 129.68 J

Quantity of heat required to melt the bullet:

$Q = mH_f$

Q = 0.00353 × 24500

= 86.49 J

TOTAL energy required to melt the bullet = 129.68 J + 86.49 J

= 216.17 J

Suppose that you are standing on a train accelerating at 0.20g (where g is the acceleration due to gravity). What minimum coeffi

prisoha [69]

Answer:

0.2

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The acceleration of the train, a = 0.2·g

The mass of the person standing on the train = m

Let μ represent the coefficient of static friction, we have;

The force acting on the person, F = m × a = m × 0.2·g

The force of friction acting between the feet and the floor, $F_f$ = m·g·μ

For the person not to slide we have;

The force acting on the person = The force of friction acting between the feet and the floor

F = $F_f$

∴ m × 0.2·g = m·g·μ

From which we get;

0.2 = μ

The coefficient of static friction that must exist between the feet and the floor if the person is not to slide, μ = 0.2.
