Answer:

Average speed of passenger jet

$s = 471.48\ mi/hr$

Explanation:

Let s be the average speed of the passenger jet.

Given:

Distance from one airport to another airport $d = 1273\ mi$

Total time taken $t = 2.7\ hr$

We need to find the average speed of the passenger jet.

Solution:

Average speed formula:

The ratio of the total distance travelled by the object to the time taken to cover that distance.

$Average\ speed = \frac{Total\ distance\ travelled}{Total\ time\ taken}$

$s = \frac{d}{t}$

Substitute total distance and time value in above equation.

$s = \frac{1273}{2.7}$

$s = 471.48\ mi/hr$

Therefore, the average speed of the passenger jet is $s = 471.48\ mi/hr$ .

When an object moves, stops moving, changes speed, or changes direction, how do scientists describe that condition?

lorasvet [3.4K]

Drop "moves" from the list for a moment.

You can also drop "stops moving", because that's included in "changes speed"
(from something to zero).

When an object changes speed or changes direction, that's called "acceleration".

I dropped the first one from the list, because an object can be moving,
and as long as it's speed is constant and it's moving in a straight line,
there's no acceleration.

I think you meant to say "starts moving". That's a change of speed (from zero
to something), so it's also acceleration.

Will Mark Brainliest if Correct PLZ!!!!! A bullet is shot at some angle above the horizontal at an initial velocity of 87m/s on

qaws [65]

Answer:

≅50°

Explanation:

We have a bullet flying through the air with only gravity pulling it down, so let's use one of our kinematic equations:

Δx=V₀t+at²/2

And since we're using Δx, V₀ should really be the initial velocity in the x-direction. So:

Δx=(V₀cosθ)t+at²/2

Now luckily we are given everything we need to solve (or you found the info before posting here):

Δx=760 m
V₀=87 m/s
t=13.6 s
a=g=-9.8 m/s²; however, at 760 m, the acceleration of the bullet is 0 because it has already hit the ground at this point!

With that we can plug the values in to get:

$760=(87)(cos\theta )(13.6)+\frac{(0)(13.6^{2}) }{2}$

$760=(1183.2)(cos\theta)$

$cos\theta=\frac{760}{1183.2}$

$\theta=cos^{-1}(\frac{760}{1183.2})\approx50^{o}$

Calculate the root mean square velocity of nitrogen molecules at 25 C.

iragen [17]

root mean square<span>= square root of ( 3RT/M)

R = 8.314 J/K/mole
T = 25 + 273 = 298 K
M = molecular mas of N2 in kg = 28 X 10^-3 kg

put values...

</span><span> root mean square</span> = square root of ( 3 X 8.314 X 298/28 X 10^-3)
= square root of ( 265454.143)
= 515.2 m/s
so option A is right
hope this helps
