A student stays at her initial position for a bit of time, then walks slowly in a straight line for a while, then stops to rest

a while, and finally runs quickly back to her initial position along a straight line. Which of the following statements is true about the average speed and the magnitude of the average velocity of the student during her trip? Her average speed is greater than the magnitude of her average velocity. Her average speed is the same as the magnitude of her average velocity. Her average speed is less than the magnitude of her average velocity. The student's average speed and velocity cannot be compared without knowing the farthest point she reached.

Answer:Average speed is greater than average velocity.

Explanation  :

Given

student walks slowly along a straight line for a while ,then stops to rest a while, and finally runs quickly back to her initial position

Let x be the length of track and the whole process takes t time

For average speed =\frac{distance\ traveled}{time\ taken}

Average speed=\frac{2x}{t}

For average velocity =\frac{Displacement}{time\ taken}

Since displacement is zero as she returns to its initial position.

Average velocity=0

Therefore Average speed is greater than average velocity.

Jenny and Alyssa are members of the cross-country team. On a training run, Jenny starts off and runs at a constant 3.8 m/s. Alys
guapka [62]

Answer:

285 seconds

Explanation:

Jenny speed is 3.8 m/s

Alyssa speed in 4.0 m/s

Alyssa starts after 15 seconds

Find the distance covered by Jenny, when Alyssa starts

Distance=Speed*time

Distance covered by Jenny in 15 seconds= 3.8×15=57m

Relative speed of the two members heading same direction will be;

4.0m/s-3.8m/s=0.2m/s

To find the time Alyssa catch up with Jenny you divide the distance to be covered by Alyssa by the relative speed of the two

Distance=57m, relative speed=0.2m/s  t=57/0.2 =285 seconds

=4.75 minutes

How is an electromagnet different from a bar magnet?
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

The answer should be C

Explanation:

The reason for that is because electromagnet needs electricity to start attracting anything at all but it's attracting power is also stronger because of it

Warning: This may or may not be a completely correct answer, hope you compare answer and don't blindly trust my answer

What is the magnitude of the force, directed parallel to the ramp, that he needs to exert on the crate to get it to start moving
lions [1.4K]

Complete question is;

Jason works for a moving company. A 75 kg wooden crate is sitting on the wooden ramp of his truck; the ramp is angled at 11°.

What is the magnitude of the force, directed parallel to the ramp, that he needs to exert on the crate to get it to start moving UP the ramp?

Answer:

F = 501.5 N

Explanation:

We are given;

Mass of wooden crate; m = 75 kg

Angle of ramp; θ = 11°

Now, for the wooden crate to slide upwards, it means that the force of friction would be acting in an opposite to the slide along the inclined plane. Thus, the force will be given by;

F = mgsin θ + μmg cos θ

From online values, coefficient of friction between wooden surfaces is μ = 0.5

Thus;

F = (75 × 9.81 × sin 11) + (0.5 × 75 × 9.81 × cos 11)

F = 501.5 N
