Three students are discussing a situation where a bicyclist travels at a steady 18.0 m/s for 10 minutes, then at 6.0 m/s for 20

minutes and finally at 12.0 m/s for 15 minutes along a straight level road. Students make the following contentions about the bicyclist's average speed for the overall trip:

Answer:10.667 m/s

Explanation:

Given

For First half students travel for 18 m/s for 10 min

For second half students travel for 6 m/s for 20 min

For last half students travel for 12 m/s for 15 min

average Speed=\frac{Distance}{Time}

V_{avg}=\frac{18\times 600+6\times 1200+12\times 900}{600+1200+900}

V_{avg}=\frac{28800}{2700}=10.667

Which force keeps and object moving in a circle?​
omeli [17]

Answer:

Centripetal force

Explanation:

Centripetal force acts on an object moving in a circle.  It points towards the center of the circle and has a magnitude equal to m v² / r, where m is the object's mass, v is the object's velocity, and r is the radius of curvature.

Question No 1 Find the voltage drop across 24 ohm resistor and current flowing through 22 ohm resistor in the given circuit as s
lord [1]

Answer:

8.25 V

Explanation:

We can ignore the 22Ω and 122Ω resistors at the bottom.  Since there's a short across those bottom nodes, any current will go through the short, and none through those two resistors.

The 2Ω resistor and the 44Ω resistor are in parallel.  The equivalent resistance is:

1 / (1 / (2Ω) + 1 / (44Ω)) = 1.913Ω

This resistance is in series with the 12Ω resistor.  The equivalent resistance is:

1.913Ω + 12Ω = 13.913Ω

This resistance is in parallel with the 24Ω resistor.  The equivalent resistance is:

1 / (1 / (13.913Ω) + 1 / (24Ω)) = 8.807Ω

Finally, this resistance is in series with the 4Ω resistor.  The equivalent resistance of the circuit is:

8.807Ω + 4Ω = 12.807Ω

The current through the battery is:

12 V / 12.807Ω = 0.937 A

The voltage drop across the 4Ω resistor is:

(0.937 A) (4Ω) = 3.75 V

So the voltage between the bottom nodes and the top nodes is:

12 V − 3.75 V = 8.25 V

A car driver traveling at a speed of 108km per hour ,sees a traffic light and stopped after travelling for 20seconds .Find the a
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

– 2.5 m/s²

Explanation:

We have,

• Initial velocity, u = 180 km/h = 50 m/s

• Final velocity, v = 0 m/s (it stops)

• Time taken, t = 20 seconds

We have to find acceleration, a.

\longrightarrow a = (v ― u)/t

\longrightarrow a = (0 – 50)/20 m/s²

\longrightarrow a = –50/20 m/s²

\longrightarrow a = – 5/2 m/s²

\longrightarrow a = – 2.5 m/s² (Velocity is decreasing) [Answer]
