Answer:

1) Speed in m/s equals 22.22 m/s.

2) Speed in miles per hour equals 49.712 mph.

Explanation:

Since we know that in 1 kilometer there are 1000 meters and in 1 hour there are 3600 seconds hence we can write

80km/h=\frac{80\times 1000m}{3600s}=22.22m/s

Now we know that 1 mile equals 1.609 kilometer  hence we conclude that 1 kilometer equals \frac{1}{1.609}=0.6214mile

Hence

80km/h=\frac{80\times 0.6214miles}{1h}=49.712mph

Luden [163]

Answer:

P=1362\ W

t'=251.659\ s is time required to heat to boiling point form initial temperature.

Explanation:

Given:

initial temperature of water, T_i=18^{\circ}C

time taken to vapourize half a liter of water, t=18\ min=1080\ s

desity of water, \rho=1\ kg.L^{-1}

So, the givne mass of water, m=1\ kg

enthalpy of vaporization of water, h_{fg}=2256.4\times 10^{-3}\ J.kg^{-1}

specific heat of water, c=4180\ J.kg^{-1}.K^{-1}

Amount of heat required to raise the temperature of given water mass to 100°C:

Q_s=m.c.\Delta T

Q_s=1\times 4180\times (100-18)

Q_s=342760\ J

Now the amount of heat required to vaporize 0.5 kg of water:

Q_v=m'\times h_{fg}

where:

m'=0.5\ kg= mass of water vaporized due to boiling

Q_v=0.5\times 2256.4

Q_v=1.1282\times 10^{6}\ J

Now the power rating of the boiler:

P=\frac{Q_s+Q_v}{t}

P=\frac{342760+1128200}{1080}

P=1362\ W

Now the time required to heat to boiling point form initial temperature:

t'=\frac{Q_s}{P}

t'=\frac{342760}{1362}

t'=251.659\ s

A 2300 Kg car accelerates from rest to 6.00 m/s in 12.00 seconds. What is the net force acting in the car?
pav-90 [236]
F=ma
a=(v2-v1)/(t2-t1)
a=(6-0)/(12-0)
a=6/12
a= .5 m/s^2
f=2300kg*.5m/s^2
f=1150N
f=1200N if using correct sig figs

A ball at the end of a string is swinging in a horizontal circle of radius 0.85 m. The ball makes exactly 3 revolutions per seco
Anettt [7]

Answer:

It's centripetal acceleration is 301.7 m/s²

Explanation:

The formula to be used here is that of the centripetal acceleration which is

ac = rω²

where ac is the centripetal acceleration = ?

ω is the angular velocity = 3 revolutions per second is to be converted to radian per second: 3 × 2π  = 3 × 2 × 3.14 = 18.84 rad/s

r is the radius = 0.85 m

ac = 0.85 × 18.84²

ac = 301.7 m/s²

It's centripetal acceleration is 301.7 m/s²

The distance in meters she would have moved before she begins to slow down is 11.25 m

<h3>LINEAR MOTION</h3>

A straight line movement is known as linear motion

Given that Ann is driving down a street at 15 m/s. Suddenly a child runs into the street. It takes Ann 0.75 seconds to react and apply the brakes.

To know how many meters will she have moved before she begins to slow down, we need to first list all the given parameters.

  • speed = 15 m/s
  • time t = 0.75 s

From definition of speed,

speed = distance / time

Make distance the subject of the formula

distance = speed x time

distance = 15 x 0.75

distance = 11.25m

Therefore, the distance in meters she would have moved before she begins to slow down is 11.25 m

An electron is accelerated from rest through a potential difference. After acceleration the electron has a de Broglie wavelength
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

3x10⁴v

Explanation:

Using

Wavelength= h/ √(2m.Ke)

880nm = 6.6E-34/√ 2.9.1E-31 x me

Ke= 6.6E-34/880nm x 18.2E -31.

5.6E-27/18.2E-31

= 3 x 10⁴ Volts
