You drive your car in a straight line at 15 m/s for 10 kilometers, then at 25 m/s for another 10 kilometers.
Vikki [24]

Answer:

A) Average speed = 18.75 m/s

B) More time is spent at 15 m/s than at 25 m/s.

Explanation:

Let the first distance be d1 and the second distance be d2.

We are given;

d1 = 10 km = 10000 m

d2 = 10 km = 10000 m

Speed; v1 = 15 m/s

Speed; v2 = 25 m/s

Now, the formula for distance is; Distance = speed x time

Thus:

d1 = v1 x t1

t1 = d1/v1 = 10000/15 = 666.67 seconds

Also,

d2 = v2 x t2

t2 = d2/v2 = 10000/25 = 400 seconds

Average speed = total distance/total time = (10000 + 10000)/(666.67 + 400) = 18.75 m/s

From earlier, since t1 = 666.67 seconds and t2 = 400 seconds, then;

More time at 15 m/s than at 25 m/s.

Difference between contrition and compunction
nordsb [41]
<span>Compunction is similar to an obligation; if you are "under compunction," then you are bound by some debt or sentence to do something. Repentance is actually an action rather than a feeling or condition: it is an act of the will which disowns whatever behavior you regret, and to repent implies a determination not to make the same mistake again. Contrition is the expressed emotion of being sorry for something; if you went to a person you had wronged, to make amends and ask their forgiveness, you would be "contrite" toward them. Remorse is simply another word for regret - you feel bad within yourself, either for what you did or for how the consequences affected you.</span>

Andy (mass 80.0 kg), Randy (mass 60.0 kg), and twins Candy and Mandy (each with a mass of 70.0 kg) climb into a 1000.-kg car, ca
PolarNik [594]

To solve this problem we will apply the relationship between Newton's second law and Hooke's law, with which we will define the balance of the system. From the only unknown in that equation that will be the constant of the spring, we will proceed to find the period of vibration of the car.

We know from Hooke's law that the force in a spring is defined as

F = kx

Here k is the spring constant and x the displacement

While by Newton's second law we have that the Weight can be defined as

F = mg

Here m is the mass and g the gravity acceleration.

The total weight would be

F = (80+60+70)(9.8)

F = 2058 N

Each spring takes a quarter of the weight, then

F_s = \frac{2058}{4} = 514.5N

Since the system is in equilibrium the force produced by the weight in each spring must be equivalent to the force of the spring, that is to say

F_s = F

\frac{1}{4} mg = kx

514.5N = k(0.04)

k = 12862.5kg \cdot m/s^2

The period of a spring-mass system is given as

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{M}{4k}}

The total mass is equivalent as the sum of all the weights, then replacing we have that the Period is

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{1000+80+60+70}{4( 12862.5)}}

T = 0.9635s

Therefore the period of vibration of the car as it comes to rest after the four get in is 0.9635s

How does a longshore current change the beach
12345 [234]
Longshore current brings about the transportation of sediments on the beach. Since waves usually approach the shore are an angle, the beach sand are carried up or down depending on the direction of the waves resulting in beach drift, that is, the net movement of the beach sand.
