A car accelerates from rest at 1.0 m/s2 for 20.0 second along a straight road. It then moves at a constant speed for half an hou

Whitepunk [10]

Total distance = 36500 m

The average velocity = 19.73 m/s

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

vo=initial velocity=0(from rest)

a=acceleration= 1 m/s²

t₁ = 20 s

t₂ = 0.5 hr = 1800 s

t₃= 30 s

Required

Total distance

Solution

State 1 : acceleration

$\tt d=vo.t+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2\\\\d=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 1\times 20^2\rightarrow vo=0\\\\d=200~m$

$\tt vt=vo+at\\\\vt=at\rightarrow vo=0\\\\vt=1\times 20\\\\vt=20~m/s$

State 2 : constant speed

$\tt d=v\times t\\\\d=20\times 1800\\\\d=36000~m$

State 3 : deceleration

$\tt vt=vo+at\rightarrow vt=0(stop)\\\\vo=-at\\\\20=-a.30~s\\\\a=-\dfrac{2}{3}m/s^2(negative=deceleration)$

$\tt d=vot+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2\\\\d=20.30-\dfrac{1}{2}.\dfrac{2}{3}.30^2\\\\d=300~m$

Total distance : state 1+ state 2+state 3

$\tt 200 + 36000 + 300=36500~m$

the average velocity = total distance : total time

$\tt avg~velocity=\dfrac{36500}{20~s+1800~s+30~s}=19.73~m/s$

xeze [42]

Answer: You do not specify what is being asked for. ∆E? ∆H?

∆E = (430 - 238) J = 192 J

∆H = 430 J

Explanation:

If asked for the value of ∆H the answer is simply the change in heat, and in the question, it states introduction of 430 J of heat is causing the system to expand.

Therefore ∆H = 430 J

If asked for ∆E, we know that ∆E = ±q (heat) + work (-P∆V) = ±q + w

The question states that 238 J of work are done AND the system expanded

(work is negative because expansion means work is done BY the system, releasing energy/heat... Conversely, if the system were compressed, work is done ON the system, absorbing heat/energy)

Therefore, ∆E = (430 - 238) J = 192 J

A traveling wave on a string can be described by the equation : y = (5.26 ~\text{m}) \cdot \sin \big( (1.65 ~\frac{\text{rad}}{\

zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

t = 1.77 s

Explanation:

The equation of a traveling wave is

y = A sin [2π (x /λ -t /T)]

where A is the oscillation amplitude, λ the wavelength and T the period

the speed of the wave is constant and is given by

v = λ f

Where the frequency and period are related

f = 1 / T

we substitute

v = λ / T

let's develop the initial equation

y = A sin [(2π / λ) x - (2π / T) t +Ф]

where Ф is a phase constant given by the initial conditions

the equation given in the problem is

y = 5.26 sin (1.65 x - 4.64 t + 1.33)

if we compare the terms of the two equations

2π /λ = 1.65

λ = 2π / 1.65

λ = 3.81 m

2π / T = 4.64

T = 2π / 4.64

T = 1.35 s

we seek the speed of the wave

v = 3.81 / 1.35

v = 2.82 m / s

Since this speed is constant, we use the uniformly moving ratios

v = d / t

t = d / v

t = 5 / 2.82

t = 1.77 s

A certain type of bird lives in two regions of a state. The distribution of weight for birds of this type in the northern region

Annette [7]

Answer: (a) Z-score are 1 and -1.2 for northern and southern regions, respectively.

Explanation: Z-score is how many standard deviations a data is from the population mean or how far a data point is from the mean.

The z-score is calculated by the following:

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

where

x is the data point

μ is population mean

σ is standard deviation

For the northern region birds:

μ = 10, σ = 3, x = 13

$z=\frac{13-10}{3}$

z = 1

The z-score for birds living in the northern region is 1, which means it is 1 standard deviation above the mean.

For the southern region:

μ = 16, σ = 2.5, x = 13

$z=\frac{13-16}{2.5}$

z = -1.2

The z-score for southern living birds is -1.2, meaning it is 1.2 standard deviations below the mean.
