A person travels 1.5 km in 6 minutes, how fast were they traveling in meters per second?

Physics
1 answer:
Evgen [1.6K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

4.167m/sec

Explanation:

1km=1000m

1.5km=1500m

1min=60sec

6min=360sec

In 360sec they travel 1500m

In 1 sec they travel=1500m/360

1sec=4.167m

A uniform electric field is directed parallel to the +y axis. If a positive test charge begins at the origin and moves upward al
lukranit [14]

Answer: option 1 : the electric potential will decrease with an increase in y

Explanation: The electric potential (V) is related to distance (in this case y) by the formulae below

V = kq/y

Where k = 1/4πε0

Where V = electric potential,

k = electric constant = 9×10^9,

y = distance of potential relative to a reference point, ε0 = permittivity of free space

q = magnitude of electronic charge = 1.609×10^-19 c

From the formulae, we can see that q and k are constants, only potential (V) and distance (y) are variables.

We have that

V = k/y

We see the potential(V) is inversely proportional to distance (y).

This implies that an increase in distance results to a decreasing potential and a decrease in distance results to an increase in potential.

This fact makes option 1 the correct answer

A kid pulls on a rope with 20 newtons of force. The block and tackle system pulls up a 160 newton box. What is the mechanical ad
Minchanka [31]
Answer:
The mechanical advantage of the system is 8

Explanation:
the mechanical advantage measures how much the system multiplies the input force to get the output.

In the given:
The input force (effort) is 20 Newton
The output force (load) is 160 Newton

This means that the mechanical advantage is:
mechanical advantage = load / effort = 160 / 20 = 8

Note that the mechanical advantage is unit-less (has no unit) since it is a ratio between two forces.

Hope this helps :)

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST TO THE CORRECT ANSWER
LenKa [72]

Answer:

See the answers below.

Explanation:

We can solve both problems using Newton's second law, which tells us that the sum of forces on a body is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

∑F =m*a

where:

F = force [N] (units of newtons)

m = mass = 1000 [kg]

a = acceleration = 3 [m/s²]

F = 1000*3\\F=3000[N]

And the weight of any body can be calculated by means of the mass product by gravitational acceleration.

W=m*g\\W=1000*9.81\\W=9810 [N]

Which best describes how the current scientific model of the atom was developed?
Lelu [443]

Answer:

A. The model was the result of hundreds of years of experiments.

Explanation:

Since it is not possible to visualize an atom in isolation, scientists have spent hundreds of years experimenting and creating atomic models, that is, images that serve to explain the constitution, properties and behavior of atoms.

The earliest who imagined the existence of the atoms were the Greek philosophers Leucippus and Democritus in about 450 BCE. According to them, everything would be formed by tiny indivisible particles. Hence the origin of the name "atom", which comes from the Greek a (no) and tome (parts).

But in the nineteenth century, some scientists began to conduct experimental tests increasingly accurate thanks to technological advances. Not only was it discovered that everything was actually made up of tiny particles, but it was also possible to understand more and more about the atomic structure.

Scientists used the information discovered by other scholars to develop the atomic model. In this way, the discoveries of one scientist were replaced by those of others. The concepts that were correct remained, but those that proved to be non-real were now abandoned. Thus, new atomic models were created. This series of discoveries of the atomic structure until arriving at the accepted models today was known like the evolution of the atomic model.
