How much time does it take a person to walk 12km north at the velocity at a velocity of 6.5 km/hrs?

I'm thinking this should actually go in the math section because you need to divide 12 by 6.5 to get the number of km/hour.

"6.5 km/hr" is not a velocity. It's just a speed, so
we don't know what direction he's walking.

If he happens to be walking north, then it takes him

(12 km) / (6.5 km/hr) = 1.846... hours (rounded) .

If he's walking in any other direction, it takes him longer than that.

If the angle between north and the direction he's walking is
90 degrees or more, then he can never cover any northward
distance, no matter how long he walks.

An aircraft has a liftoff speed of 33 m/s. What is the minimum constant acceleration an

JulsSmile [24]

Answer: The minimum acceleration for the air plane is 2.269m/s2.

Explanation: To solve such problem the equation of motion are applicable.

The initial velocity is 0 since the airplane was initially standing. We are going to use this equation

V^2=U^2+2as

33^2=0+2a (240)

a= 2.269m/s2

A body weighing 108N moves with speed of 5m/s in a horizontal

poizon [28]

Answer:

i) 5 $m$ / $s^{2}$ ii) 54 $N$ iii) 54 $N$

Explanation:

i) $a = \frac{v^{2}}{r}$ ⇒ $a$ = 5² ÷ 5 = 5 $m/s^{2}$

ii) $m = \frac{W}{g}$ ⇒ $m$ = 108 ÷ 10 = 10.8 $kg$ , $F = ma$ ⇒ $F =$ 10.8 × 5 = 54 $N$

iii) F1 = F2 = 54 $N$

You are trying to overhear a juicy conversation, but from your distance of 20.0 m , it sounds like only an average whisper of 30

12345 [234]

Answer:

r₂ = 0.2 m

Explanation:

given,

distance = 20 m

sound of average whisper = 30 dB

distance moved closer = ?

new frequency = 80 dB

using formula

$\beta = 10 log(\dfrac{I_1}{I_0})$

I₀ = 10⁻¹² W/m²

now,

$30 = 10 log(\dfrac{I_1}{10^{-12}})$

$\dfrac{I_1}{10^{-12}}= 10^3$

$I_1= 10^{-8}\ W/m^2$

to hear the whisper sound = 80 dB

$80 = 10 log(\dfrac{I_2}{10^{-12}})$

$\dfrac{I_2}{10^{-12}}= 10^8$

$I_2= 10^{-4}\ W/m^2$

we know intensity of sound is inversely proportional to square of distances

$\dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=\dfrac{r_2^2}{r_1^2}$

$\dfrac{10^{-8}}{10^{-4}}=\dfrac{r_2^2}{20^2}$

$10^{-4}=\dfrac{r_2^2}{20^2}$

r₂ = 0.2 m
