Jim began a 153-mile bicycle trip to build up stamina for a triathlon competition. Unfortunately, his bicycle chain broke, so he

finished the trip walking. The whole trip took 5 hours. If Jim walks at a rate of 4 miles per hour and rides at 42 miles per hour, find the amount of time he spent on the bicycle.

consider the motion when Jim travels by bicycle

D = total distance to be traveled for the trip = 153 mile

v = speed of riding = 42 mph

t = time taken to complete the trip by bicycle = ?

using the equation

t = D/ v

inserting the values

t = 153/42

t = 3.64  h

while walking and riding :

T = total time taken to complete the trip by walking and riding = 5 hours

t ' = time of walking = T - t = 5 - 3.64 = 1.36 hours

v' = speed of walking = 4 mph

d' = distance traveled by walking = ?

distance traveled by walking is given as

d' = v' t'

d' = 4 x 1.36

d' = 5.44 miles

d = distance traveled by bicycle = D - d' = 153 - 5.44 = 147.56 miles

v = speed of riding = 42 mph

t = time spent on the bicycle = ?

time spent on the bicycle is given as

t = d/v

t = 147.56/42

t = 3.51 hours

Answer:

Explanation:

1) Hypermetropia (better known as Farsighted- this is why nearby objects seem blurry for him)

2) In such instances, image are typically formed farther from the near point

3) Such defects are quite common so there are common procedures such as using convex lens which can restore the sight to normal.

A closely wound rectangular coil of 80 turns has dimensions 25.0 \rm cm by 40.0 \rm cm. The plane of the coil is rotated from a
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

88.3

Explanation:

Emf in a rotating coil is given by rate of change of flux:

E= dФ/dt=(NABcos∅)/ dt

N: number of turns in the coil= 80

A: area of the coil= 0.25×0.40= 0.1

B: magnetic field strength= 1.1

Ф: angle of rotation= 90- 37= 53

dt= 0.06s

E= (80 × 0.4× 0.25×1.10 × cos53)/0.06= 88.3V

If two proton approach each other with speed of 400m\s and 450m\s respectively what is the total momentum of the two particle sy
lilavasa [31]

Answer: 83.65\times 10^{-27}\ kg.m/s

Explanation:

Given

The velocities of the protons are 400 m/s and 450 m/s

Mass of the Proton is m=1.673\times 10^{-27}\ kg

Since they travel in the opposite direction, therefore, their momentum cancels out each other.

Momentum is the product of mass and velocity

\therefore m(450-400)\\\Rightarrow 1.673\times 10^{-27}\times 50\\\Rightarrow 83.65\times 10^{-27}\ kg.m/s

The direction of momentum is in the direction of proton having 450 m/s velocity.

An unfortunate astronaut loses his grip during a spacewalk and finds himself floating away from the space station, carrying only
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

15.75 m/s

Explanation:

v = Velocity of the combined mass of astronaut and tools = 1.8 m/s

m_1 = Mass of astronaut = 124 kg

m_2 = Mass of tools = 16 kg

v_1 = Velocity of astronaut = 0

v_2 = Velocity of tools

As linear momentum is conserved

m_1v_1 + m_2v_2 =(m_1 + m_2)v\\\Rightarrow v_2=\frac{(m_1 + m_2)v-m_1v_1}{m_2}\\\Rightarrow v_2=\frac{(124+16)\times 1.8-124\times 0}{16}\\\Rightarrow v_2=15.75\ m/s

The velocity of the tools is 15.75 m/s
