The two measurements necessary for calculating average speed are
1 answer:
The correct answer is Option (C) distance and time
Explanation:
Average speed of any object is defined as the total distance that object travels over the time it takes to travel that distance. In other words, average speed is the total distance divided by the elapsed time.
Therefore, as you can see in the above equation, the two measurements that are essential for the calculation of the average speed are the (total) distance and the (elapsed) time.
Hence, the correct option is C.

The work done by a constant force in a rectilinear motion is given by:
where F is the magnitude of the force, d is the distance and θ is the angle between the force and the displacement vector.
In this case we have two forces then we need to add the work done by each of them; for the first force we have a magnitude of 17 N, a displacement of 12 m and and angle of 0° (since both the displacement and the force point right); for the second force we have a magnitude of 36 N, a displacement of 12 m and an angle of 30°. Plugging these values we have that the total work is:
Therefore, the total work done is 578.123 J and the answer is option E
