Fifteen identical particles have various speeds: one has a speed of 2.00 m/s, two have speeds of 3.00 m/s, three have speeds 5.0

0 m/s, four have speeds of 7.00 m/s, three have speeds of 9.00 m/s, and two have speeds of 12.0 m/s. find (a) the average speed, (b) the rms speed, and (c) the most probable speed of these particles.

A. Average speed is weighted mean (1 × 2 + 2 × 3 + 3 × 5 + 4 × 7 + 3 × 9 + 2 × 12.5)/15 = (2 + 6 + 15 + 28 + 27 + 25)/15 = 103/15 = 6.867 b. RMS is square root of 1/15 times sum of squares of speeds Sum of squares is 4 + 9 + 9 + 25 + 25 + 25 + 49 + 49 + 49 + 49 + 81 + 81 + 81 +156.25 + 156.25 = 848.5 
c. RMS speed = √(848.5/15) = 7.521 
Most likely the speed is the peak in the speed distribution, which is 7.

A 2-kg box sits on a horizontal table. the force of friction between the box and the table is 10 n. the box is pushed to the rig
dangina [55]
By Newton's 2nd law of motion, F = ma, where F is force, m is mass, and a is acceleration.

Rearranging this equation to find acceleration would give us:
a = F/m

The horizontal force to the right is 10N, because the box is pushed to the right with a force of 20N, and the friction force of 10N opposes that, so:
20N - 10N = 10N

The mass is 2kg.

Putting these values into the equation gives us:
a = F/m
= 10/2
= 5ms^-2

The acceleration of the box is 5ms^-2

Define speed and what is it’s SI unit.
Nadusha1986 [10]
Speed can be thought of as the rate at which an object covers distance. ... Speed has the dimensions of distance divided by time. The SI unit of speed is the metre per second, but the most common unit of speed in everyday usage is the kilometre per hour or, in the US and the UK, miles per hour........?
