5 0

Answer:

The average speed will be 1.5km/hr .

Explanation:

Distance need to be traveled = 7.5Km

Time taken = 5 hours

Average speed refers to total distance traveled with respect to total time taken .

It can be calculated as given below :

Average speed =total distance /total time taken

Substituting the values we get ,as shown below

Average speed =7.5/5=75/50

Average speed = 1.5 Km/hr

What is the mass of a car that has a kinetic energy if 4,320,000 J moving at 23 m/s?
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

kinetic energy=1/2mv^2.

which is 4320000=1/2×m×23^2.

which is 4320000=1/2×m×529.

4320000=264.5m.

m=4320000/264.5.

m=16332.70~16333g

Un cubo de madera de densidad 0.780 g/cm³ mide 11.2 cm en un lado. Cuando se coloca en agua, ¿qué altura del bloque flotará sobr
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

2.464 cm above the water surface

Explanation:

Recall that for the cube to float, means that the volume of water displaced weights the same as the weight of the block.

We calculate the weight of the block multiplying its density (0.78 gr/cm^3) times its volume (11.2^3  cm^3):

weight of the block = 0.78 * 11.2^3  gr

Now the displaced water will have a volume equal to the base of the cube (11.2 cm^2) times the part of the cube (x) that is under water. Recall as well that the density of water is 1 gr/cm^3.

So the weight of the volume of water displaced is:

weight of water = 1 * 11.2^2 * x

we make both weight expressions equal each other for the floating requirement:

0.78 * 11.2^3 = 11.2^2 * x

then x = 0.78 * 11.2 cm = 8.736 cm

This "x" is the portion of the cube under water. Then to estimate what is left of the cube above water, we subtract it from the cube's height (11.2 cm) as follows:

11.2 cm - 8.736 cm = 2.464 cm
