DerKrebs [107]

Miniature circuit breakers is called the developed form of fuse because MCBs are more sensitive to current than fuses. They immediately detect any abnormality and switch off the electrical circuit automatically. This prevents any permanent damage to electrical appliances and human beings

If Steve throws the football 50 meters in 3 seconds, what is the average speed of the football? Speed = distance / time Question
leva [86]

Answer:

A. 16.67 m/s

Explanation:

Speed or velocity refers to the rate of change in distance over a change in time. That is;

Speed = Distance ÷ time

Where;

Speed is in metre/seconds

Distance is in metre

Time is in seconds.

In this question, Steve throws a football 50 meters in 3 seconds. The average speed can be calculated this:

S = D/t

Where; d = 50m, t = 3s

S = 50/3

S = 16.6666666

S = 16.67m/s

A car travels along a straight line at a constant speed of 60.0 mi/h for a distance d and then another distance d in the same di
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

velocity during second d = 20.0 mi/h

Explanation:

Total distance travelled is 2d, with an average velocity of 30.0 mi/h you can express the time travelled in terms of d:

distance = velocity * time

time = distance / velocity

time = 2d/30.0

The time needed for the first d at 60.0 is:

time = d/60.0

The time in the second d you can get it by substracting both times (total time - time for the first d)

second d time = 2d/30.0 - d/60.0

= 4d/60.0 - d/60.0

= 3d/60.0

and with the time (3d/60.0) and the distance travelled (d) you can get the velocity:

velocity = distance / time

velocity = d / (3d/60.0)

= 60.0/3 = 20.0 mi/h

If the swimmer starts at rest, slides without friction, and descends through a vertical height of 2.41 m
AveGali [126]

Answer:

6.88 m/s

Explanation:

The Conservation of Energy states that:

Initial Kinetic Energy + Initial Potential Energy = Final Kinetic Energy + Final Potential Energy

So we can write

mgh_{i}+\frac{1}{2}mv_{i} ^{2}=mgh_{f}+\frac{1}{2}mv_{f} ^{2}

We can cancel the common factor of m which leaves us with

gh_{i}+\frac{1}{2}v_{i} ^{2}=gh_{f}+\frac{1}{2}v_{f} ^{2}

Lets solve for v_f

gh_{i}+\frac{v_{i} ^{2}}{2}=gh_{f}+\frac{v_{f} ^{2}}{2}

Subtract gh_f from both sides of the equation.

gh_{i}+\frac{v_{i} ^{2}}{2}-gh_{f}=\frac{v_{f} ^{2}}{2}

Multiply both sides of the equation by 2.

2(gh_{i}+\frac{v_{i} ^{2}}{2}-gh_{f})={v_{f} ^{2}

Simplify the left side.

Apply the distributive property.

2(gh_{i})+2\frac{v_{i} ^{2}}{2}+2(-gh_{f})={v_{f} ^{2}

Cancel the common factor of 2.

2gh_{i}+v_{i} ^{2}-2gh_{f}={v_{f} ^{2}

Take the square root of both sides of the equation to eliminate the exponent on the right side.

{v_{f}=\sqrt{2gh_{i}+v_{i} ^{2}-2gh_{f}}

We are given g,v_{i},h_{i},h_{f}.

We can now solve for the final velocity.

{v_{f}=\sqrt{(2*9.81*2.41)+(0^{2})-(2*9.81*0)

Anything multiplied by 0 is 0.

{v_{f}=\sqrt{2*9.81*2.41

{v_{f}=\sqrt{47.2842

v_f=6.88
