A train travels 79 kilometers in 2 hours, and then 77 kilometers in 3 hours. What is its average speed?

1 answer:

4 0

Average speed=total distance traveled/time. Total distance=the sum of the two short distances=79*2+77*3=389 km. Total time used to travel is 2+3=5 hr. Average speed is 389/5=77.8 km/hr.

Answer:

(A) Speed will be $44.18\times 10^4m/sec$

(b) Change in kinetic energy = $1560\times 10^{-19}$

Explanation:

We have given mass of proton $m=1.67\times 10^{-27}kg$

Acceleration of the proton $a=2.50\times 10^{12}m/sec^2$

Initial velocity u = $1.60\times 10^4$ m/sec

Distance traveled by proton s = 3.90 cm = 0.039 m

(a) From third equation of motion we know that

$v^2=u^2+2as$

$v^2=(1.60\times 10^4)^2+2\times 2.5\times 10^{12}\times 0.039$

$v=44.18\times 10^4m/sec$

(b) Initial kinetic energy $KE_I=\frac{1}{2}mv^2=\frac{1}{2}\times 1.67\times 10^{-27}\times (1.6\times 10^4)^2$

Final kinetic energy $KE_F=\frac{1}{2}mv^2=\frac{1}{2}\times 1.67\times 10^{-27}\times (44.18\times 10^4)^2$

So change in kinetic energy $\Delta KE=KE_F-KE_I=\frac{1}{2}\times 1.6\times 10^{-27}\times 10^8\times (44.18^2-1.6^2)=1560\times 10^{-19}J$
