Maggie completed a 10000-m race at an average speed of 160
Gala2k [10]

Answer: 200m/min

Explanation:

Divide 10000m by 160m/min, you will get the answer 62.5. You then subtract 12.5 from 62.5 to understand what you will need your answer for the other person’s speed will be. 10000m divided by 50min is 200m/min.

Given the information below, estimate the total distance travelled during these 6 seconds using a left endpoint approximation. t
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

184 feets

Explanation:

Given the data:

time (sec) __ velocity (ft/sec)

0 __________30

1 __________ 54

2 __________56

3 __________34

4 __________ 8

5 __________ 2

6 __________22

Using left end approximation:

(0,1) ___ f(0) = 30

(1,2) ___ f(1) = 54

(2,3) ___f(2) = 56

(3,4) ___f(3) = 34

(4,5) ___f(4) = 8

(5,6) __ f(5) = 2

Hence, the Total distance traveled during the 6 second interval is:

Change ; dT = 1

1 * (30 + 54 + 56 + 34 + 8 + 2) = 184

An apple hanging from a limb has potential energy because of its height . If it falls ,what becomes of this energy just before i
sineoko [7]

Answer: Just before its hits the ground it becomes kinetic energy and when it hits the ground it becomes in another form of energy (acoustic energy or thermal energy, for example)

Explanation:

Energy is the ability of matter to produce work in the form of movement, light, heat, among others.

In this sense, according to the Conservation of Energy principle: <em>"energy is not created or destroyed, it is transformed."</em>

So, in the case of the apple, its total energy is conserved.

When the apple is hanging from a limb, it has zero kinetic energy K_{o}=0 (because it is at rest) and has gravitational potential energy U_{o}, which depends on the mass m, the acceleration due gravity g and the height h:

U_{o}=mgh

When the apple falls, just before its hits the ground, this gravitational potential energy transforms in kinetic energy K_{1} (since the apple is moving), which depends on the mass and velocity V of the apple:

K_{1}=\frac{1}{2}mV^{2}

When the apple hits the ground, the gravitational potential energy is zero (h=0) and the kinetic energy transforms into some other form of energy (acoustic energy or thermal energy, for example).
