You drive on Interstate 10 from San Antonio to Houston, half the time at 51 km/h and the other half at 71 km/h. On the way back

you travel half the distance at 51 km/h and the other half at 71 km/h.
What is your average speed (a) from San Antonio to Houston, (b) from Houston back to San Antonio, and (c) for the entire trip? (d) What is your average velocity for the entire trip?

Answer:

Part a)

v_{avg} = 61 km/h

Part b)

v_{avg} = 59.4 km/h

Part c)

v_{avg} = 60.2 km/h

Part d)

average velocity must be ZERO

Explanation:

While he drive San Antonio to Houston

Half the time move with speed 51 km/h and next half his speed is 71 km/h

so we have

v_1(T/2) + v_2(T/2) = d

T = \frac{2d}{v_1 + v_2}

T = \frac{2d}{51 + 71}

so average speed is given as

v_{avg} = \frac{d}{T}

v_{avg} = \frac{d}{\frac{2d}{51 + 71}}

v_{avg} = 61 km/h

Part b)

While he move from Houston to San Antonio half the distance is moved with 51 km/h and next half distance with 71 km/h

so we have

T = \frac{d}{2v_1} + \frac{d}{2v_2}

T = \frac{d}{102} + \frac{d}{142}

so average speed is given as

v_{avg} = \frac{d}{ \frac{d}{102} + \frac{d}{142}}

v_{avg} = 59.4 km/h

Part c)

Average speed for entire trip

v_{avg} = \frac{2d}{\frac{2d}{51 + 71} + \frac{d}{102} + \frac{d}{142}}

v_{avg} = 60.2 km/h

Part d)

Since total displacement of entire trip is zero

so average velocity must be ZERO

labwork [276]
Here, Fe = Fg
q.E = m.g
We have: E = 360 V
m = 5.4 × 10⁻⁵
g = 9.8 m/s²   [ constant value for earth system ]

Substitute their values into the expression:
q (360) = 5.4 × 10⁻⁵ × 9.8
q = 52.92 × 10⁻⁵ / 360
q = -1.47 × 10⁻⁶  [ negative sign represents the nature of charge ] 

So, Your Final answer would be 1.47 × 10⁻⁶

Hope this helps!

Ivenika [448]
The focal length would likely decrease as the refractive index and the increase when the curvature radius of the lens increases. The decrease in focal length happens since a higher index of refraction would signify that the rays of the sun striking to an object would tend to bend more.

RoseWind [281]

Answer:

B .Limited types of data Insufficient data

Explanation:

To analyse and making decision from big data we have following thing

- Sufficient data

- data analyst

- Accurate data

- data Privacy

- data storage

So, limited data or data that cannot be copied is not and obstacle in data handling. hence option B Limited types of data Insufficient data is correct.
