A person travels by car from one city to another with different constant speeds between pairs of cities. She drives for 35.0 min

at 100.0 km/h, 10.0 min at 55.0 km/h, and 45.0 min at 35.0 km/h and spends 35.0 min eating lunch and buying gas.
(a) Determine the average speed for the trip. km/h
(b) Determine the distance between the initial and final cities along the route. km

Explanation:

Solution:

Let the time be

t1=35min = 0.58min

t2=10min=0.166min

t3=45min= 0.75min

t4=35min= 0.58min

let the velocities be

v1=100km/h

v2=55km/h

v3=35km/h

a. Determine the average speed for the trip. km/h

first we have to solve for the distance

S=s1+s2+s3

S= v1t1+v2t2+v3t3

S= 100*0.58+55*0.166+35*0.75

S=58+9.13+26.25

S=93.38km

V=S/t1+t2+t3+t4

V=93.38/0.58+0.166+0.75+0.58

V=93.38/2.076

V=44.98km/h

b. the distance is 93.38km

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

22.26 years

, 15.585 light years  , 11.13 light years

Explanation:

a)

t' = t/(\sqrt{1-(v/(c*v)/c)}

= 15.9/\sqrt{(1-0.7*0.7)}

= 22.26 years

b)

0.7*c*22.26 years

=15.585 light years  

c)

0.7*c*15.9

=11.13 light years

A student hangs a weight on a newtonmeter. The energy currently stored in the spring in the newton meter is 0.045N. The student
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

5x10^-3

Explanation:

Hooke's Law states that the force needed to compress or extend a spring is directly proportional to the distance you stretch it.

Hooke's Law can be represented as

<h3> F = kx, </h3>

<em>where F is the force </em>

<em>            k is the spring constant</em>

<em>            x is the extension of the material </em>

<em />

Plug values in the equation

Step 1 find the original extension

0.045 = (400)x

x = 1.125x 10^-4 m d

Step 2 find the new extension

0.045+2 = 400(x)

2.045 = 400x

x = 5.1125x10^-3

Step 3 subtract the new extension with original

Total extension of the spring =  5.1125x10^-3 - 1.125x 10^-4 m = 5x10^-3

If sulfur 34 undergoes alpha decay, what will I become?
ikadub [295]
It will decay into Silicon-30. Because alpha particles are 2 protons and 2 neutrons with an atomic mass of 4, you minus sulfur's atomic number by 2 and get silicon. And the atomic mass is 34 - 4 which equals 30.

What is the average speed of a car that travelled 400 miles in 6 hours?
Reil [10]

Answer:

About 66 miles per hour

Explanation:

Based on the information given we can assume the car traveled the same number of miles every hour meaning all we need to do is divide.

400/6 ≈ 66 miles per hour

Which statement best explains the relationship between the electric force between two charged objects and the distance between t
spin [16.1K]
Unfortunately, the given statements are missing from the problem. However, we can still determine the relationship between the electric force between two objects and the distance between them. The formula for the electric force is given below:

F = (k*Q1*Q2)/d^2

k is a constant, while Q1 and Q2 are the respective charges of the objects. F is force, while d is distance.

As seen in the formula, we can see that the electric force F is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the two objects.
