Answer:3000km/h

Explanation:

speed=distance/time

216,000km/72hrs

=3000km/h

Well, first of all, if there are astronauts aboard that ship, I hope they don't try to climb out yet.  If they pointed straight at the moon and covered 216,000 km so far, they still have another 168,000 km to go before they get there.

Average Speed = (distance) / (time)

Speed = (216,000 km) / (72 hours)

<em>Average Speed = 3,000 km/hr</em>

also

Speed = (216,000 km) x (1000m/km) / (72 hr x 3600sec/hr)

<em>Average Speed = 833.33 m/s</em>

There's not enough information given to find the ship's velocity.

A high school physics student is sitting in a seat read-
Nataly_w [17]

The equilibrium condition allows finding the result for the force that the chair exerts on the student is:

  • The reaction force that the chair exerts on the student's support is equal to the student's weight.

Newton's second law gives the relationship between force, mass and acceleration of bodies, in the special case that the acceleration is is zero equilibrium condition.

            ∑ F = 0

Where F is the external force.

The free body diagram is a diagram of the forces on bodies without the details of the shape of the body, in the attached we can see a diagram of the forces.

Let's analyze the force on the chair.

            N_{chair} - W_{chair} - W_{student} = 0 \\ \\N_{chair} = W_{chair} + W_{student}

Let's analyze the forces on the student.

          N_{student} - W_{student} = 0  \\N_{student} = W _{student}

           

In conclusion using the equilibrium condition we can find the result for the force that the chair exerts on the student is:

  • The reaction force that the chair exerts on the student's support is equal to the student's weight.

Julie is cycling at a speed of 3.4 meters/second. If the combined mass of the bicycle and Julie is 30 kilograms, what is the kin
Anon25 [30]
Velocity=3.4m/sec
Mass=30kg
so kinetic energy=1/2mv^2
=1/2×30×3.4×3.4
=15×3.4×3.4
=15×11.56
=173.4 kg m per second square
