Answer:

best close estimate distance is 315 miles

Explanation:

given data

speed v1 = 50 miles per hour

speed v2 = 60 miles  per hour

time t1 = 4 hr

time t2 = 7 hr

to find out

best estimate for the distance traveled

solution

we know lower end distance

distance = v1 × t1

distance = 50 × 4 = 200 miles

and

upper end distance

distance = v2 × t2

distance = 60 × 7 = 420 miles

so middle value distance is

v = 55 miles per hour and t = 5.5 hours

distance = v × t  

distance = 55 × 5.5

distance = 302.5 miles

so best close estimate distance is 315 miles

GenaCL600 [577]

Complete Question

For each of the following scenarios, describe the force providing the centripetal force for the motion:

a. a car making a turn

b. a child swinging around a pole

c. a person sitting on a bench facing the center of a carousel

d. a rock swinging on a string

e. the Earth orbiting the Sun.

Answer:

Considering a

    The force providing the centripetal force is the frictional force on the tires \

          i.e  \mu mg  =  \frac{mv^2}{r}

    where \mu is the coefficient of static friction

Considering b

   The force providing the centripetal force is the force experienced by the boys  hand on the pole

Considering c

     The force providing the centripetal force is the normal from the bench due to the boys weight

Considering d

     The force providing the centripetal force is the tension on the string

Considering e

      The force providing the centripetal force is the force of gravity between the earth and the sun

A soccer ball with mass 0.450 kg is initially moving with speed 2.20 m/s. A soccer player kicks the ball, exerting a constant fo
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

0.187 m

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the acceleration of the ball. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (m) = 0.450 Kg

Force (F) = 38 N

Acceleration (a) =?

F = m × a

38 = 0.450 × a

Divide both side by 0.450

a = 38 / 0.450

a = 84.44 m/s²

Finally, we shall determine the distance. This can be obtained as follow:

Initial velocity (u) = 2.20 m/s.

Final velocity (v) = 6 m/s

Acceleration (a) = 84.44 m/s²

Distance (s) =?

v² = u² + 2as

6² = 2.2² + (2 × 84.44 × s)

36 = 4.4 + 168.88s

Collect like terms

36 – 4.84 = 168.88s

31.52 = 168.88s

Divide both side by 168.88

s = 31.52 / 168.88

s = 0.187 m

Thus, the distance is 0.187 m

hoa [83]

Answer:

Squids = 450 - 490 nm (Moderate Frequency) (Blue)

Bees = 300 - 650 nm (Lower Frequency Bands)

Frogs = 280 - 580 nm (Very Low Frequency)

Explanation:

All of the above mentioned ranges are compared to that of humans.

I'm just surprised a little bit in the imagination that how these organisms see the world through their unique eyes. On the other hands, they are evolved like this just like we do so that may not be surprising enough. SIKE

A chef places an open sack of flour on a kitchen scale. The scale reading of
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Initial reading on scale =40 N

So, we can conclude that weight of the sack is 40 N

After this a 10 N force is applied upward on the sack such that the net force becomes (40-10) N downward (because downward force is more)

This net downward force is the resultant of earth graviational pull and the applied upward force.

So, this downward force acts on the machine which inturn applies an upaward force of same magnitude called Normal reaction.

This situation can be diagramatically represented by figure given below

The specific heat of a certain type of metal is 0.128 J/(g⋅∘C).0.128 J/(g⋅∘C). What is the final temperature if 305 J305 J of he
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

45.3°C

Explanation:

Heat gained = mass × specific heat × increase in temperature

q = mC (T − T₀)

Given C = 0.128 J/g/°C, m = 94.0 g, q = 305 J, and T₀ = 20.0°C:

305 J = (94.0 g) (0.128 J/g/°C) (T − 20.0°C)

T = 45.3°C
