Answer:

v = 2.5 mi/h

Explanation:

The velocity of an object is defined as the time rate of change of its position. In other words the velocity of an object is just a ration of displacement covered by the object to the time taken by the object, to cover that distance. So, in this case we will use the same formula or equation to calculate the velocity of the man. The formula is as follows:

v = s/t

where,

v = velocity of the man = ?

s = distance of the trail = 5 miles

t = time required to complete the trail = 2 h

Therefore,

v = 5 miles/ 2 h

v = 2.5 mi/h

In order to go in a circle at a constant speed an object needs

maxonik [38]

Answer:

So for an object moving in a circle, there must be an inward force acting upon it in order to cause its inward acceleration. This is sometimes referred to as the centripetal force requirement. The word centripetal (not to be confused with the F-word centrifugal) means center seeking.

Which measure of central tendency refers to the average of all the scores in a data set?

dedylja [7]

Answer

Mean

Explanation

For any set of date there is a typical value for the probability distribution called central tendency.

There three types of central tendency mean, median and mode.

Mean is the average value of all data set in a distribution.

median is the the central value when the data is arranged in ascending or descending order.

Mode is the value that occurs most in a set of data.

Answer:

SKID

Explanation:

In general, airplane tracks are flat, they do not have cant, consequently the friction force is what keeps the bicycle in the circle.

Let's use Newton's second law, let's set a reference frame with the horizontal x-axis and the vertical y-axis.

Y axis y

N- W = 0

N = W

X axis (radial)

fr = m a

the acceleration in the curve is centripetal

a = $\frac{v^2}{r}$

the friction force has the expression

fr = μ N

we substitute

μ mg = m v²/r

v = $\sqrt{\mu g r}$

we calculate

v = $\sqrt{0.1 \ 9.8 \ 3}$

v = 1,715 m / s

to compare with the cyclist's speed let's reduce to the SI system

v₀ = 18 km / h (1000 m / 1 km) (1 h / 3600 s) = 5 m / s

We can see that the speed that the cyclist is carrying is greater than the speed that the curve can take, therefore the cyclist will SKID

Where would a car traveling on a roller coaster have the most kinetic energy ? and why?

goldenfox [79]

Answer:

As the car travels up the coaster it is gaining potential energy.

Explanation:

Because It has the greatest in amount of potential energy at the top of the coaster. when the car travels down the roller coaster it obtains speed and kinetic energy.
