2. For one hour, you travel east in your car covering 100 km .Then travel south 100 km in 2 hours. You would tell your friends t

hat your average velocity was
47 km/hr
67 km/hr
75 km/hr
141 km/hr
200 km/hr
Answer is 47 Km /h explain why ?

Answer:

Explanation:

Average velocity is change in position over the change in time. You have to take the directions into account. 100km east and then 100km south. That forms a right triangle, so you can use Pythagorean's theorem to find the hypotenuse which would be the displacement from his initial position:

\sqrt{100^2+100^2} = \sqrt{20,000}=141.42km

Now take the displacement and divide it by the time it took to do the trip, 3 hours:

141.42km/3hours=47.14km/h

At the same moment, one rock is dropped and one is thrown downward with an initial velocity of 29m/s from the top of a building
Inessa [10]

Answer:

The thrown rock strike 2.42 seconds earlier.

Explanation:

This is an uniformly accelerated motion problem, so in order to find the arrival time we will use the following formula:

x=vo*t+\frac{1}{2} a*t^2\\where\\x=distance\\vo=initial velocity\\a=acceleration

So now we have an equation and unkown value.

for the thrown rock

\frac{1}{2}(9.8)*t^2+29*t-300=0

for the dropped rock

\frac{1}{2}(9.8)*t^2+0*t-300=0

solving both equation with the quadratic formula:

\frac{-b\±\sqrt{b^2-4*a*c} }{2*a}

we have:

the thrown rock arrives on t=5.4 sec

the dropped rock arrives on t=7.82 sec

so the thrown rock arrives 2.42 seconds earlier (7.82-5.4=2.42)

A reasonable estimate of the moment of inertia of an ice skater spinning with her arms at her sides can be made by modeling most
Oxana [17]

Answer:

A)  I_{total} = 1.44 kg m², B) moment of inertia must increase

Explanation:

The moment of inertia is defined by

     I = ∫ r² dm

For figures with symmetry it is tabulated, in the case of a cylinder the moment of inertia with respect to a vertical axis is

      I = ½ m R²

A very useful theorem is the parallel axis theorem that states that the moment of inertia with respect to another axis parallel to the center of mass is

    I = I_{cm} + m D²

Let's apply these equations to our case

The moment of inertia is a scalar quantity, so we can add the moment of inertia of the body and both arms

      I_{total}=I_{body} + 2 I_{arm}

       I_{body} = ½ M R²

The total mass is 64 kg, 1/8 corresponds to the arms and the rest to the body

       M = 7/8 m total

       M = 7/8 64

       M = 56 kg

The mass of the arms is

      m’= 1/8 m total

      m’= 1/8 64

      m’= 8 kg

As it has two arms the mass of each arm is half

     m = ½ m ’

     m = 4 kg

The arms are very thin, we will approximate them as a particle

    I_{arm} = M D²

Let's write the equation

     I_{total} = ½ M R² + 2 (m D²)

Let's calculate

    I_{total} = ½ 56 0.20² + 2 4 0.20²

    I_{total} = 1.12 + 0.32

    I_{total} = 1.44 kg m²

b) if you separate the arms from the body, the distance D increases quadratically, so the moment of inertia must increase

THE RIGHT ANSWER WILL RECEIVE A BRAINLESS AND POINTS AND THANKS!!! THE RIGHT ANSWER WILL RECEIVE A BRAINLESS AND POINTS AND THAN
timurjin [86]

Answer:

f_{o} = 391.67 Hz

Explanation:

The sound of lowest frequency which is produced by a vibrating sting is called its fundamental frequency (f_{o}).

The For a vibrating string, the fundamental frequency (f_{o}) can be determined by:

f_{o} = \frac{v}{2L}

Where v is the speed of waves of the string, and L is the length of the string.

L = 42.0 cm = 0.42 m

v = 329 m/s

f_{o} = \frac{329}{2*0.42}

   = \frac{329}{0.84}

f_{o} = 391.6667 Hz

The fundamental frequency of the string is 391.67 Hz.
