The Force of Static Friction keeps a stationary object at rest! Once the Force ofStatic Friction is overcome, the Force of Kinetic Friction is what slows down a moving object.

someone help pls. Two students, Mia and Peter, leave school to meet at the local coffee shop. Peter decides to jog to the coffee

cluponka [151]

Answer:

1) The distance further it takes Peter to arrive at the Coffee shop than Mia is 1.24 km

2) Mia's average speed is 6.00 km/hour

Peter's average speed is 8.48 km/hour

4) Mia's average velocity = Peter's average velocity = 6.00 km/hour

Explanation:

The given information from the diagram are;

The distance Peter jogs from school to the flower shop = 2.00 km

The distance Peter jogs from the Flower shop to the Coffee shop = 2.24 km.

The distance Mia walks from school directly to the Coffee shop = 3.00 km

The time it takes both Peter and Mia to arrive at the coffee shop = 30 minutes = 0.5 hour

1) The total distance Peter travels from school to the Coffee shop = 2.00 km + 2.24 km = 4.24 km

The distance Mia travels from school to the Coffee shop = 3.00 km

The distance further it takes Peter to arrive at the Coffee shop than Mia = 4.24 km - 3.00 km = 1.24 km

The distance further it takes Peter to arrive at the Coffee shop than Mia = 1.24 km

2) $Average \ speed = \dfrac{Total \ distance \ traveled}{Total \ time \ taken \ in \ the \ journey}$

$Therefore, \ Mia's \ average \ speed = \dfrac{3.00 \ km}{0.5 \ hour}= 6.00 \ km/hour$

Mia's average speed = 6.00 km/hour

$Peter's \ average \ speed = \dfrac{4.24 \ km}{0.5 \ hour}= 8.48 \ km/hour$

Peter's average speed = 8.48 km/hour

4) $Average \ velocicty = \dfrac{Displacement }{Time \ taken}$

The displacement from the School to the Coffee shop is 3.00 km for both Mia and Peter

The time it takes both Peter and Mia to arrive at the Coffee shop from the school is 30 minutes = 0.5 hour

$Therefore, \ Mia's \ average \ velocity = \dfrac{3.00 \ km}{0.5 \ hour}= 6.00 \ km/hour$

Mia's average velocity = 6.00 km/hour

$Peter's \ average \ velocity = \dfrac{3.00 \ km}{0.5 \ hour}= 6.00 \ km/hour$

Therefore, Peter's average velocity is also = 6.00 km/hour

Which of these is an example of acceleration? A a bicyclist turning around a corner B a car traveling south with its cruise cont

Airida [17]

The answer is A.

Acceleration means when you go faster in speed. Since the bicyclist is turning, he has to slow down but when he finishes turning, he is going to pedal harder and gain more speed. This is called Acceleration.

Best of Luck!

Find an expression for the square of the orbital period.

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

T²= 4π²R³/GM

Explanation:

First we know that

Fg= Fc

Because centripetal force must equal gravitational force

GMm/R² = Mv²/R

But velocity is 2πR/T

So by substitution we have

GMm/R²= M (2πR/T)/T

We have

T²= 4π²R³/GM as period

Matthew throws a ball straight up into the air. It rises for a period of time and then begins to drop. At which points in the ba

PolarNik [594]

Answer:

If air resistance is taken as negligible, then the ball is in freefall the moment it is thrown so gravity is the only force acting on the object. If air resistance is not negligible then gravity will be the greatest force acting on the ball while it is going up and coming down, because Fair has to be less than gravity at all times otherwise the atmosphere would wither away.
