On a road trip, a driver achieved an average speed of (48.0+A) km/h for the first 86.0 km and an average speed of (43.0-B) km/h

for the remaining 54.0 km. What was her average speed (in km/h) for the entire trip? Round your final answer to three significant figures.

Answer:

45.94 km/h

Explanation:

Let the average speed be 48km/h for the first 86 km and 43 km/h for the remaining 54 km. We can calculate the time it takes to travel each of the segment:

For the first 86 km segment:

t_1 = s_1/v_1 = 86 / 48 = 1.79 hours

For the remaining 54 km segment:

t_2 = s_2/v_2 = 54 / 43 = 1.256 hours

So the total times it takes is

t = t_1 + t_2 = 1.79 + 1.256 = 3.047 hours

And the total distance she travels:

s = s_1 + s_2 = 86 + 54 = 140 km

The average speed for the entire trip would be total distance divided by total time:

v = s / t = 140 / 3.047 = 45.94 km/s

A 10- kilogram block is pushed across a horizontal surface with a horizontal force of 20 N against a friction force of 10 N. The
Temka [501]

Answer:

1m/s^2

Explanation:

Mass of block=10 kg

Applied horizontal force =F=20 N

Friction force=f=10 N

We have to find the acceleration of block.

Net force=Applied horizontal force-friction force

ma=F-f

Where F= Horizontal force

f=Friction force

m=Mass of object

a=Acceleration of object

10a=20-10=10

a=\frac{10}{10}=1 m/s^2

Hence, the acceleration of the block=1m/s^2

a coin press creates a pressure of 3.20*10^8 Pa on a nickel of radius 0.0106 m. how much force does the press exert on the coin?
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

1.13 x 10⁵N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Pressure of the coin press = 3.2 x 10⁸ Pa

radius of the nickel coin = 0.0106m

Unknown:

Force of the press on coil = ?

Solution:

Our knowledge of pressure will help us solve this problem.

Pressure is defined as the force applied per unit area on a body.

              Pressure  = \frac{force}{area}

  Force = Pressure  x  Area

 Since the pressure is known;

Area of the coin = Area of a circle = π r²

 where r is the radius of the coin;

Area of the coin = π x 0.0106²  = 3.53 x 10⁻⁴m²

  Force = 3.2 x 10⁸ x  3.53 x 10⁻⁴  = 1.13 x 10⁵N
