A car drives to the east in a time of 4 hours. Then, immediately (not realistic, but just assume this is the case for this probl

em), travels 12 km to the west in 4 hours. The average speed for the entire trip is 5 km/hr. What is the average speed of the car for the first part of the trip, in km/hr, while the car was traveling east?

Answer:

Average speed in east direction speed=\frac{distance}{time}=\frac{28}{4}=7km/hr            

Explanation:

We have given average speed of the entire trip = 5 km/hr

First the car 4 hours then travels 12 km in 4 hours

So total time of the trip = 4+4 = 8 hours

So total distance traveled in the trip d=speed\times time = 5\times 8=40km

As the car travel 12 km in 4 hours to the west

So distance traveled in 4 hour in east = 40 -12 = 28 km

Time in east direction = 4 hour

So average speed in east direction speed=\frac{distance}{time}=\frac{28}{4}=7km/hr

At point E

  • the kinetic energy of the rollercoaster is small compared to the potential energy
  • the potential energy is greater than the kinetic energy
  • the total energy is a mixture of potential and kinetic energy

<h3>What is the energy of the roller coaster at point E?</h3>

The energy of a roller coaster could either be potential energy, kinetic energy or a combination of both potential and kinetic energy.

Using analogies, the energy of the roller coaster at point E can be compared to a falling fruit from a tree which falls onto a pavement and is the rolling towards the floor. Point E can be compared to the midpoint of the fall of the fruit.

At point E

  • the kinetic energy of the rollercoaster is small compared to the potential energy
  • the potential energy is greater than the kinetic energy
  • the total energy is a mixture of potential and kinetic energy

In conclusion, the energy of the rollercoaster at E is both Kinetic and potential energy,

Hey can anyone please help me with this it’s due in few hours and I’m stuck with ittt
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

Check body of the explanation

Explanation:

Ooook, quick theory rushdown. if you're at a depth of h in a tank of a fluid, the pressure is the sum of the atmosferic pressure (if the tank is open on top) plus a term which is the product of acceleration of gravity - about 10 ms^-^2, the density of whatever you're sinking in, and the depth at which you are. In formula, p(h) = p_0 + \rho g h, and the pressure is the same for every point of the tank at the same depth.

At this point, we can start answering!

1a. The pressure at A is - not counting atmosferic pressure - 1000 * 10 * 1 = 10^4 Pa, while in B is 1000*10*2 = 2*10^4 Pa, so it's half of it.

1b. The two points are at the same depth, so the pressure is the same - they would be even if the two cilinders weren't linked!

1c. Ditto. Same depth? same pressure!

1d. Usual equation, this time density is 800. Pressure is 800*10*2 = 1,6*10^4 Pa: Since the density is 4/5 of water, the pressure is also 4/5 of the one exerted by water

2a. The volume is simply the product, so 4m*3m*2m = 24m^3

2b. Density is defined as mass over volume, so you simply multiply the volume you found earlier by the density of paraffine: 800* 24 = 1,92 *10^4kg

2c. Weight is defined as the mass of something times the acceleration due to gravity, in our case it's 1.92 *10^4 kg * 10 ms^{-2} = 1.92 * 10^5 N

2d. \rho gh again, what a surprise! 800 {kg \over m^3} * 10 {N \over kg}} * 2 m = 1,6* 10^4 {N\over m^2} =1.6*10^4 Pa

3. Yet again, \rho gh. 1000 {kg \over m^3} * 10 {N \over kg}} * 2 m = 2* 10^4 {N\over m^2} =2*10^4 Pa
