A bicycle rider travels 50.0 km in 2.5 hours. What is the cyclists speed

1 answer:

7 0

Hi,
Recall the formula V=d/t, where V stands for velocity or speed, d stands for distance and t stands for time. By substituting your values you get: V=50.0km/2.5h, which equals to 20km/h.

If an object has a kinetic energy of 30 j and mass of 34kg how fast is the object moving ?

cricket20 [7]

Ek = (m*V^2) / 2 where m is mass and V is speed, then we can take this equation and manipulate it a little to isolate the speed.

Ek = mv^2 / 2 — multiply both sides by 2

2Ek = mv^2 — divide both sides by m

2Ek / m = V^2 — switch sides

V^2 = 2Ek / m — plug in values

V^2 = 2*30J / 34kg

V^2 = 60J/34kg

V^2 = 1.76 m/s — sqrt of both sides

V = sqrt(1.76)

V = 1.32m/s (roughly)

A planet orbits a start with the path shown below.

kvv77 [185]

PART a)

As we know that gravitational potential energy is given by the formula

$U = -\frac{Gm_1m_2}{r}$

here we can see that gravitational potential energy inversely varies with the distance

so here when distance from the sun is minimum then magnitude of gravitational potential energy is maximum while since it is given with negative sign so its overall value is minimum at that position

So gravitational potential energy is minimum at the nearest point and maximum at the farthest point

PART b)

Since we know that sum of kinetic energy and potential energy is constant here

so the points of minimum potential energy is the point where kinetic energy is maximum which means speed is maximum

So here speed is maximum at the nearest point

Part C)

since gravitational potential energy inversely varies with distance so it's graph will be like hyperbolic graph with distance

A television remote control uses infrared light with a wavelength of 940 nm. What is the frequency of the light?

Ronch [10]

Answer:

Frequency = 3.19 * 10^14 Hz or 1/s

Explanation:

Relationship b/w frequency and wavelength can be expressed as:

C = wavelength * frequency, where c is speed of light in vacuum which is 3.0*10^8 m/s.

Now simply input value (but before that convert wavelength into meters to match the units, you do this by multiply it by 10^-9 so it will be 940*10^-9)

3.0 * 10^8 = Frequency * 940 x 10^-9

Frequency = 3.19 * 10^14 Hz or 1/s
