A bicycle travels 6.10 km due east in 0.210 h, then 11.30 km at 15.0° east of north in 0.560 h, and finally another 6.10 km due

Virty [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

First bicycle travels 6.10 km due to east in 0.21 h

Suppose its position vector is $r_1$

$r_1=6.10\hat{i}$

After that it travels 11.30 km at $15^{\circ}$ east of north in 0.560 h

suppose its position vector is $r_2$

$r_{2}=11.30\left ( cos15\hat{j}+sin15\hat{i}\right )$

after that he finally travel 6.10 km due to east in 0.21 h

suppose its position vector is $r_3$

$r_{3}=6.10\hat{i}$

so position of final position is given by

$r=r_1+r_{2}+r_{3}$

$\vec{r}=15.12\hat{i}+10.91\hat{j}$

$\vec{v_{avg}}=\frac{\vec{r}}{t}$

t=0.21+0.56+0.21=0.98 h

$\vec{v_{avg}}=15.42\hat{i}+11.13\hat{j}$

$|v_{avg}|=\sqrt{361.71}=19.01 km/hr$

For direction

$tan\theta =\frac{11.13}{15.42}=0.721$

$\theta =35.791^{\circ}$ w.r.t to x axis

An object has 90000 J of kinetic energy and is moving at 12 m/s. what is the objects mass?

Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

1250kg

Explanation:

we can solve this using the formula for the Kinetic Energy

$Kinetic.Energy=\frac{1}{2}*mass*velocity^{2}\\mass=\frac{2*Kinetic.Energy}{velocity^{2}}\\mass=\frac{2*90000}{12^{2}}\\\\mass=1250kg$

Consider a heat engine that inputs 10 kJ of heat and outputs 5 kJ of work. What are the signs on the total heat transfer and tot

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

Total heat transfer is positive

Total work transfer is positive

Explanation:

The first law of thermodynamics states that when a system interacts with its surrounding, the amount of energy gained by the system must be equal to the amount of energy lost by the surrounding. In a closed system, exchange of energy with the surrounding can be done through heat and work transfer.

Heat transfer to a system is positive and that transferred from the system is negative.

Also, work done by a system is positive while the work done on the system is negative.

Therefore, from the question, since the heat engine inputs 10kJ of heat, then heat is being transferred to the system. Hence, the sign of the total heat transfer is positive (+ve)

Also, since the heat engine outputs 5kJ of work, it implies that work is being done by the system. Hence the sign of the total work transfer is also positive (+ve).

A car initially at rest undergoes uniform acceleration for 6.32 seconds and covers a distance of 120 meters. What is the approxi

Alja [10]

The approximate acceleration of the car would be <span>3.00

</span>How? We have to use the formula to find the velocity.

v = d/t = 120/6.32

v = 19

Then plug the factor into the acceleration formula to find the acceleration:

a = v/t = 19/6.32

a = 3.00

So, the approximate acceleration of the car would be 3.00
