A car went 60 km in 5/6 of an hour while a second car went 54 km in 2/3h. Which car was faster? How many times faster?

Physics
1 answer:
Nastasia [14]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The car that went 54 km in 2/3h was faster, 5/4 times faster than the other car

Explanation:

Average speed of a car is the ratio between the displacement \Delta x and the time (t) it takes to do that displacement:

V_{avg}=\frac{\Delta x}{t}

So, for the first car:

V_{avg1}=\frac{60km}{\frac{5h}{6}} =72\frac{km}{h} (1)

for the second car we have:

V_{avg2}=\frac{60km}{\frac{2h}{3}} =90\frac{km}{h} (2)

So, the second cart is faster than the first one. To find how many times divide speed 2 by speed 1:

\frac{90}{72}=\frac{5}{4}

An object has more momentum if it has which of the following?
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

C.) A high velocity and Large mass.

Explanation:

Momentum of any object is defined by following formula

Here :  m = mass of object

v = velocity of object

now we know that since momentum is product of mass and velocity

So in order to have more momentum we need the value of this product to be more.  So this product will me large is both the physical quantity will be more in magnitude. So if mass is large and velocity will be more then the product of them will be large and hence the momentum of object will be more. Btw I had that question too.

If the given wave has a frequency of 100 Hz, what frequency will the sixth harmonic have?
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

600Hz

Explanation:

In electrical systems of alternating current, the harmonics are, as in acoustics, frequencies multiples of the fundamental working frequency of the system and whose amplitude decreases as the multiple increases. For example, if we have systems fed by the 50 Hz network, harmonics of 100, 150, 200, etc. may appear.

In our case having a fundamental wave of 100Hz, I can have harmonics of 200,300,400, ..., 600Hz
