As we know that average speed is given by the ratio of total distance covered and total time of motion so we will have

v_{avg} = \frac{distance }{time}

now we have

distance covered = 40 meter

time taken by the bird = 10 minutes

now in order to find the average speed of the bird

v_{avg} = \frac{40}{10}

v_{avg} = 4 meter/min

so the average speed of the bird is 4 m/min

A professor, with dumbbells in his hands and holding his arms out, is spinning on a turntable with an angular velocity. What hap
Olenka [21]

Answer:

<em>His angular velocity will increase.</em>

Explanation:

According to the conservation of rotational momentum, the initial angular momentum of a system must be equal to the final angular momentum of the system.

The angular momentum of a system = I'ω'

where

I' is the initial rotational inertia

ω' is the initial angular velocity

the rotational inertia = mr'^{2}

where m is the mass of the system

and r' is the initial radius of rotation

Note that the professor does not change his position about the axis of rotation, so we are working relative to the dumbbells.

we can see that with the mass of the dumbbells remaining constant, if we reduce the radius of rotation of the dumbbells to r, the rotational inertia will reduce to I.

From

I'ω' = Iω

since I is now reduced, ω will be greater than ω'

therefore, the angular velocity increases.

At which of the following temperature and pressure levels would a gas be most likely to follow the ideal gas law? A. 0 K and 100
bulgar [2K]
The Ideal Gas Law makes a few assumptions from the Kinetic-Molecular Theory. These assumptions make our work much easier but aren't true under all conditions. The assumptions are,

1) Particles of a gas have virtually no volume and are like single points.
2) Particles exhibit no attractions or repulsions between them.
3) Particles are in continuous, random motion.
4) Collisions between particles are elastic, meaning basically that when they collide, they don't lose any energy.
5) The average kinetic energy is the same for all gasses at a given temperature, regardless of the identity of the gas.

It's generally true that gasses are mostly empty space and their particles occupy very little volume. Gasses are usually far enough apart that they exhibit very little attractive or repulsive forces. When energetic, the gas particles are also in fairly continuous motion, and without other forces, the motion is basically random. Collisions absorb very little energy, and the average KE is pretty close.

Most of these assumptions are dependent on having gas particles very spread apart. When is that true? Think about the other gas laws to remember what properties are related to volume.

A gas with a low pressure and a high temperature will be spread out and therefore exhibit ideal properties.

So, in analyzing the four choices given, we look for low P and high T.

A is at absolute zero, which is pretty much impossible, and definitely does not describe a gas. We rule this out immediately.

B and D are at the same temperature (273 K, or 0 °C), but C is at 100 K, or -173 K. This is very cold, so we rule that out.

We move on to comparing the pressures of B and D. Remember, a low pressure means the particles are more spread out. B has P = 1 Pa, but D has 100 kPa. We need the same units to confirm. Based on our metric prefixes, we know that kPa is kilopascals, and is thus 1000 pascals. So, the pressure of D is five orders of magnitude greater! Thus, the answer is B.

How far can a person run in 13.22 minutes if he or she runs at an average speed of 12.33 km/hr?
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

2.72 km

Explanation:

(12.33 km)/ 1 hr * (1 hr)/ 60 min

0.2055 km/ min

distance=rate * time (assuming v is constant,

a=0)

(0.2055 km/ min)*(13.22 min)

2.72 km OR 2716.71 m
