Remaining Distance = 180miles-90miles= 90miles
Time taken for first part of her journey= 90miles / 30miles/h= 3hours
To have average speed of 40mph,
Let the time taken for second part be xh
180 / 3h+xh =40
3+x= 4.5h
x =1.5h
Constant speed she must drive = 90miles / 1.5h = 60mph

Two skiers arrive at the bottom of a ramp travelling at the same speed. Friction may be ignored in this problem. One skier is an
inysia [295]

Answer:

Both will reach to same height

Explanation:

Here we can see that friction is to be ignored

so we can say that work done by all the non conservative forces is change in mechanical energy

Since all non conservative forces here is zero

so mechanical energy is conserved here

so here we can say that sum of initial kinetic energy and potential energy = sum of final kinetic energy and potential energy

So we will have

\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = mgH

now maximum height is given as

H = \frac{v^2}{2g}

so here we can say that greatest height will be independent of the mass so they both will reach at same height

A 15 kg mass is moving at 7.50 meters per second on a horizontal, frictionless surface. What is the total work that must be done
sashaice [31]
Kinetic energy = (1/2) (mass) x (speed)²

At 7.5 m/s, the object's KE is (1/2) (7.5) (7.5)² = 210.9375 joules

At 11.5 m/s, the object's KE is (1/2) (7.5) (11.5)² = 495.9375 joules

The additional energy needed to speed the object up from 7.5 m/s
to 11.5 m/s is (495.9375 - 210.9375) = <em>285 joules</em>.

That energy has to come from somewhere. Without friction, that's exactly
the amount of work that must be done to the object in order to raise its
speed by that much.

State coulomb's law mathematically
Vsevolod [243]

Coulomb's law is express as:

\begin{gathered} F=k\frac{q_1q_2}{r^2} \\ \text{ where} \\ k\text{ is Coulomb's constant} \\ q_1\text{ and }q_2\text{ are the charges} \\ r\text{ is the distance between charges} \end{gathered}

What is the mass of an object that is hanging 12.6 m above the surface of the earth and has a
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

22.05 Kg

Explanation:

Apply the formula:

GPE = Gravity . Mass . ΔHigh

2778.3 = 10 . Mass . 12.6

2778.3 = 126 . Mass

Mass = 2778.3/126

Mass = 22.05
