Ben walks 500 meters from his house to the corner store. He then walks back toward his house, but continues 200 meters past his

house to talk to a neighbor. It takes Ben 17 minutes from the time he leaves his house until he stops to talk to his neighbor.
What is Ben’s average velocity?

0.2 m/s
0.5 m/s
0.7 m/s
1.2 m/s

Answer:

velocity = 0.2 m/s

Explanation:

As we know that Ben walks to the market at distance of 500 m

then he turns back towards his house and continue 200 m past his house towards neighbor.

So the return path length is 700 m

So here total displacement of Ben is given as

d = 700 - 500

d = 200 m

Now for the average velocity we know that

velocity = \frac{displacement}{time}

velocity = \frac{200}{17 \times 60 seconds}

velocity = 0.2 m/s

Two particles are located on the x axis. particle 1 has a mass m and is at the origin. particle 2 has a mass 2m and is at x = +l
wlad13 [49]

The solution would be like this for this specific problem:

<span>
The force on m is:</span>

<span>
GMm / x^2 + Gm(2m) / L^2 = 2[Gm (2m) / L^2] -> 1

The force on 2m is:</span>

<span>
GM(2m) / (L - x)^2 + Gm(2m) / L^2 = 2[Gm (2m) / L^2] -> 2

From (1), you’ll get M = 2mx^2 / L^2 and from (2) you get M = m(L - x)^2 / L^2 

Since the Ms are the same, then 

2mx^2 / L^2 = m(L - x)^2 / L^2 

2x^2 = (L - x)^2 

xsqrt2 = L - x 

x(1 + sqrt2) = L 

x = L / (sqrt2 + 1) From here, we rationalize. 

x = L(sqrt2 - 1) / (sqrt2 + 1)(sqrt2 - 1) 

x = L(sqrt2 - 1) / (2 - 1) 


x = L(sqrt2 - 1) </span>

 

= 0.414L

 

<span>Therefore, the third particle should be located the 0.414L x axis so that the magnitude of the gravitational force on both particle 1 and particle 2 doubles.</span>

Give an example of where you see the law of conservation of energy in your life
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

The law of conservation of energy can be seen in these everyday examples of energy transference: Water can produce electricity. Water falls from the sky, converting potential energy to kinetic energy.

The cue ball loses energy because the energy it had has been transferred to the 8 ball, so the cue ball slows down
