The average speed of the car for the entire trip can be calculate by using:

v=\frac{S}{t}

where S is the total distance covered by the car, and t is the total time taken.


The total distance travelled by the car is:

S=80 km+50 km+40 km=170 km

while the total time taken is:

t=1.00 h+0.50 h+0.50 h=2.00 h


so, the average speed of the car is:

v=\frac{S}{t}=\frac{170 km}{2.00 h}=85 km/h


so, the correct answer is (3) 85 km/h.

The average speed of the car for entire trip is \boxed{85\text{ km/h}}.

Further Explanation:

Speed is the measure of a quantity of an object the tells how fast the object is moving in the other words we can define the speed that it is the distance covered by an body divided by the time taken to cover that distance. It is a quantity with only magnitude so it is a scalar quantity.

The average speed is defined as the sum of all the distance traveled by the body divided by the sum of time taken to travel that distance.

Given:

The distance travel by the car is 80\text{ km} for 1.00\text{ hours}.

The distance travel by the car is 50\text{ km} for 0.50\text{ hours}.

The distance travel by the car is 40\text{ km} for .

0.50\text{ hours}.

Concept:

The expression for the average can be written as:

S =\dfrac{{{\text{sum of distances }}}}{{{\text{sum of time}}}}    …… (1)

The distance travel by the car is 80\text{ km} for 1.00\text{ hours}, distance travel by the car is 50\text{ km} for 0.50\text{ hours} and distance travel by the car is 40\text{ km} for 0.50\text{ hours}.

The sum of the distance is:

\begin{aligned}D&=80{\text{ km}}+{\text{50 km}}+40{\text{ km}}\\&=170{\text{ km}}\end{aligned}

The sum of time taken to travel the distance is:

\begin{aligned}t&=1.00{\text{ h}} + 0.50{\text{ h}} + 0.50{\text{ h}}\\&=2.00{\text{ h}}\end{aligned}

Substitute 170\text{ km} for total distance and 2.00\text{ h} for total time in equation (1).

\begin{aligned}S&=\frac{{{\text{170 km}}}}{{2.00{\text{ h}}}}\\&=85{\text{ km/h}}\end{aligned}

Therefore, the average speed of the car for entire trip is \boxed{85\text{ km/h}}.

A 95kg fullback (football player for those not into sports) moving south with a speed of 5.0 m/s has a perfectly inelastic colli
Lunna [17]

Answer:

a.  v=3.11mls, 29.4^{0}

b.   K.E =-697.8J

Explanation:

To calculate the values in the  question, a deep understanding of perfect inelastic collision is important.

When two bodies undergo inelastic collision, two important parameters must be well understood i.e

Momentum: the momentum is always conserved in perfectly inelastic collision. i.e the total momentum after collision is the sum of the individual momentum before collision

Kinetic energy: Kinetic energy is not conserved due to dissipative force.

a.To calculate the velocity, we first find the total momentum before collision

Momentum of player 1 p_{1} =mv=95kg*5m/s\\p_{1} =475kgm/s\\

Momentum of player 2 p_{2} =mv=90kg*3m/s\\p_{1} =270kgm/s\\

Hence the total momentum p_{12}=p_{1}+p_{2}\\

Note, since the direction of movement before collision is due south and  due north respectively we have to represent the velocity using the rectangular coordinate

Hence  p_{12}=(m_{1}+m_{2})v=p_{1}i+p_{2}j\\

(95+90)v=475i+270j\\

v=2.57i+1.45j\\

solving for the resultant velocity, we have

v=\sqrt{2.75^{2} +1.45^{2}}\\ v=3.11mls

To calculate the direction of movement, we have

\alpha =tan^{-1}=\frac{v_{j} }{v_{i}}\\  \alpha =tan^{-1}=\frac{1.45}{2.57}\\\alpha =29.4^{0}

b. to calculate the decrease in total kinetic energy, before collision, the total kinetic was

K.E_{initial} =\frac{1}{2}m_{1}v_{1}^{2}+\frac{1}{2}m_{2}v_{2}^{2}.\\K.E_{initial} =((1/2)*95*5^{2})+((1/2)*90*3^{2})\\K.E_{initial} =1187.5+405\\K.E_{initial} =1592.5J\\

And the final kinetic energy after collision is

K.E_{final} =\frac{1}{2}(m_{1}+m_{2} )v^{2}\\  K.E_{final} =\frac{1}{2}(95+90)* 3.11^{2}\\ K.E_{final} =894.7J

The decrease in Kinetic energy is

K.E =K.E_{final}- K.E_{initial}=894.7-1592.5

K.E =-697.8J

The negative sign indicate a decrease in Kinetic energy
