Speed is defined as the distance per unit time.
So we can calculate the speed by :

S = Distance traveled/Time taken
S = 80 /2
S = 40 miles/hour

Answer:

Average speed of the car is 40 miles per hour

Explanation:

It is given that,

Distance covered by the car, d = 80 miles

Time taken by the car, t = 2 hours

We need to find the average speed of the car. It is given by :

v=\dfrac{d}{t}

v=\dfrac{80\ miles}{2\ h}

v = 40 miles/hour

So, the average speed of the car is 40 miles per hour. Hence, this is the required solution.

Two objects form a closed system. One object, which is at 400 K, absorbs 25.0 kJ of heat from the other object,which is at 500 K
Damm [24]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

       T_{1} = 400 K,     T_{2} = 500 K,  

\Delta Q = 25 kJ = 25000 J   (as 1 kJ = 1000 J)

Now, we will calculate the change in entropy as follows.

            \Delta S = \frac{\Delta Q}{\Delta T}

Putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

           \Delta S = \frac{\Delta Q}{\Delta T}

                      = \frac{25000 J}{(500 K - 400 K)}      

                      = 250 J/K

Hence, we can conclude that change in entropy is 250 J/K.

A car wheel turns through 277° in 10.7 s. Calculate the angular speed of the wheel.
slava [35]

Answer:

The angular speed of the wheel is 0.452 rad/s

Explanation:

The angle through which the car wheel turns, Δθ = 277° = 277/360 × 2·π radian

The time it takes for the car wheel to turn, Δt = 10.7 s

The angular speed, ω is given by the following equation;

Angular \ speed = \dfrac{Change \ in \ angular \ rotation }{Change \ in \ time} = \dfrac{\Delta \theta}{\Delta t}

Substituting the known values for Δθ and Δt gives;

Angular \ speed = \dfrac{\dfrac{277 ^{\circ}}{360 ^{\circ }  }  \times 2 \times \pi \ radian}{10.7 \ seconds} \approx 0.452 \ rad/s

The angular speed of the wheel = 0.452 rad/s

Explanation:

let's take the volume of each first:

ice cream: 10×10×4=400cm^3

freezer: 40×40×20=32,000cm^3

now we just divide: 32000/400=80
