a bird flies at a speed of 15 m/s for 10s, 20 m/s for 20s, and 30 m/s for 15s. what is the birds average speed

Average speed = (total distance) / (total time)

First segment:

15 m/s for 10 sec;  distance covered = (15 x 10) = 150 m

Second segment:

20 m/s for 20 sec; distance covered = (20 x 20) = 400 m

Third segment:

30 m/s for 15 sec; distrance covered = (30 x 15) = 450 m

Total time = (10s + 20s + 15s) = 45 sec

Total distance = (150m + 400m + 450m) = 1,000 m (1 km)

<em>Average speed</em> = (1,000 m) / (45 sec) = <em>22.22 m/s</em>

John and mary are skating at an ice rink. john skates at a constant speed of 6.7 m/s, with respect to the ice surface, directly
iragen [17]
60.3° from due south and 5.89 m/s    For this problem, first calculate a translation that will put John's destination directly on the origin and apply that translation to Mary's destination. Then the vector from the origin to Mary's new destination will be the relative vector of Mary as compared to John. So John is traveling due south at 6.7 m/s. After 1 second, he will be at coordinates (0,-6.7). The translation will be (0,6.7)  Mary is traveling 28° West of due south. So her location after 1 second will be  (-sin(28)*10.9, -cos(28)*10.9) = (-5.117240034, -9.624128762)  After translating that coordinate up by 6.7, you get  (-5.117240034, -2.924128762)  The tangent of the angle will be 2.924128762/5.117240034 = 0.57142693  The arc tangent is atan(0.57142693) = 29.74481039° Subtract that value from 90 since you want the complement of the angle which is now 60.25518961°    So Mary is traveling 60.3° relative to due south as seen from John's point of view.  The magnitude of her relative speed is  sqrt(-5.117240034^2 + -2.924128762^2) = 5.893783 m/s    Rounding the results to 3 significant digits results in 60.3° and 5.89 m/s

Viewed at night from the high diving board at a swimming pool, the light from an underwater bulb forms a bright, 10-ft diameter
ycow [4]

Answer:

option A

Explanation:

given,

diameter of circle = 10 ft

refractive index of the water = n = 1.33

let the inclined surface of the cone makes an angle θ with vertical line then

tan \theta = \dfrac{radius\ of\ circle}{verticle\ length}

h= \dfrac{radius}{tan\theta }

we know,

sin \theta = \dfrac{1}{n}

sin \theta = \dfrac{1}{1.33}

\theta =sin^{-1}(\dfrac{1}{1.33})

from this θ = 48.75°

substitute this in eq ( 1 ) we have  

h= \dfrac{5}{tan 48.75}

h = 4.38

h = 4.4 (approx.)

Hence, the correct answer is option A
