A train travels 55km, south along a straight track in 34minutes. What is the train Ls average velocity in kilometers per hour

Physics

Westkost [7]3 years ago

Answer:

96.5 km/h

Explanation:

The average velocity of the train is given by:

v=\frac{d}{t}

where

d is the displacement

t is the time taken

For this train, we have:

d = 55 km south (displacement is a vector, so we must also consider the direction)

t= 34 min \cdot \frac{1}{60 min/h}=0.57 h

Substituting into the equation, we find the average velocity:

v=\frac{55 km}{0.57 h}=96.5 km/h

A 5.0 kg cannonball is fired horizontally at 68 m/s from a 15-m-high cliff. A strong tailwind exerts a constant 12 N horizontal
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

3.7 m

Explanation:

ASSUMING this means extra distance beyond where the cannonball would land WITHOUT the wind assistance but in general ignoring air resistance. Hmmmmmm...tricky

The ball drops from vertical rest to ASSUMED horizontal ground 15 m below in a time of

t = √ (2h/g) = √(2(15)/9.8) = 1.75 s

Without the tail wind, the ball travels horizontally

d = vt = 68(1.75) = 119 m

The tailwind exerts a constant acceleration on the ball of

a = F/m = 12/5.0 = 2.4 m/s²

The average horizontal velocity during the flight is

v(avg) = (68 + (68 + 2.4(1.75)) / 2 = 70.1 m/s

so the distance with tailwind is

d = v(avg)t = 70.1(1.75) = 122.675 m

The extra distance is 122.675 - 119 = 3.675 = 3.7 m

A factory emits pollutants at a rate of 25 g/s. The factory is located between two mountain ranges resulting in an effective val
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

1.25\ \mu\text{g/m}^3

Explanation:

v = Velocity of the breeze = 4 m/s

w = Width of the valley = 5000 m

h = Height of the valley = 1000 m

Volumetric flow rate is given by

\dot{V}=vwh\\\Rightarrow \dot{V}=4\times 5000\times 1000\\\Rightarrow \dot{V}=2\times10^{7}\ \text{m}^3/\text{s}

\dot{m} = Mass flow rate of pollutant = 25 g/s = 25\times 10^6\ \mu\text{g/s}

Concentration is given by

C=\dfrac{\dot{m}}{\dot{V}}\\\Rightarrow C=\dfrac{25\times 10^6}{2\times 10^7}\\\Rightarrow C=1.25\ \mu\text{g/m}^3

The steady state concentration of pollutants in the valley, is 1.25\ \mu\text{g/m}^3.
