Answer:

42 km/h was the average speed of the car for its three-hour trip.

Explanation:

Diameter of the car wheel = d = 0.4 m

Radius of the car wheel = r = 0.5 d = 0.5 × 0.4 m =0.2 m

Distance covered in 1 complete revolution = 2\pi r

Distance covered in 100,000 complete revolution,D = 2\pi r\times 100,000

D=2\times 3.14\times 0.2 m\times 100,000=125,663.71 m

1 m = 0.001 km

125,663.71 m = 125,663.71 × 0.001 km = 125.66371 km

Time taken to complete 100,000 revolution by a wheel = t = 3 hours

Speed of car : S

S=\frac{125.66371 km}{3hours}=41.89 km/h\approx 42 km/h

42 km/h was the average speed of the car for its three-hour trip.

Answer:

Explanation:

diameter = 0.4 m

Radius, r = 0.2 m

Time, t = 3 hour

number of revolutions, = 100,000

Distance traveled in one revolution = 2 x π x r = 2 x 3.14 x 0.2 = 1.256 m

Total distance in 100,000 revolutions,

d = 100,000 x 1.256 = 125600 m

d = 125.6 km

Average speed = distance / time

Average speed = 125.6 / 3 = 41.87 km/h

Juli2301 [7.4K]
The velocity increased from 4 m/s to 22 m/s in 3 seconds. 18 m/s in 3 seconds so the average acceleration is change in velocity divided by time. 18 m/s divided by 3 seconds = 6 m/s^2

Suppose that you hear a clap of thunder 16 s after seeing the associated lightning strike. How far are you from the lightning st
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

d=5.376km

Explanation:

Since <em>light is so fast</em> we can assume no time passes between the lightning strikes and we observe it. We want to know then how far away did the strike occur for the sound to take 16s to reach our ears. Since the definition of velocity tells us that v=d/t, we can write d=vt=(336m/s)(16s)=5376m=5.376km
