A car travels at 2000 meters east in 40 seconds. What is the cars velocity

Physics
1 answer:
DerKrebs [107]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

50 ms⁻¹

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance Travelled =2000 meters

Time Taken =40 seconds

velocity = ?

we know,

velocity = Distance  / Time

              =(2000 /  40) ms⁻¹

               =50 ms⁻¹

A container is filled with water to a depth of 26.2 cm. On top of the water floats a 16.1 cm thick layer of oil with a density of
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

1.34 x 10^3 Pa

Explanation:

density of oil = 0.85 x 10^3 kg/m^3

g = 9.81 m/s^2

height of oil column = 16.1 cm = 0.161 m

Pressure on the surface of water = height of oil column x density of oil x g

                                                      = 0.161 x 0.85 x 10^3 x 9.81 = 1.34 x 10^3 Pa

Thus, the pressure on the surface of water is 1.34 x 10^3 Pa.

How do hydrogen bonds affect boiling points?
Yuri [45]

Boiling points are raised by hydrogen bonds because they make different molecules desire to "attach" to one another, which requires more energy to do so. In water, for instance, the hydrogen proton is in a state that resembles ionization because the connections between oxygen and hydrogen, while covalent, are strongly polar. The oxygen also receives a partial negative charge. Therefore, hydrogen bonds are formed when the electro-positive H in one molecule is strongly electrostatically attracted to the electro-negative O in nearby molecules. Despite being weak links, they are powerful enough to significantly alter the liquid's characteristics.  

Thanks!

What is the kinetic energy of an object with a mass of 50kg and is and it is traveling at a rate of 60m/s.
liq [111]

Answer:

90,000 J

Explanation:

Kinetic energy can be found using the following formula.

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

where <em>m </em>is the mass in kilograms and <em>v</em> is the velocity in m/s.

We know the object has a mass of 50 kilograms. We also know it is a traveling at a rate of 60 m/s. Velocity is the speed of something, so the velocity of the object is 60 m/s.

<em>m</em>=50

<em>v</em>=60

Substitute these values into the formula.

KE=\frac{1}{2}*50*60^2

First, evaluate the exponent: 60^2. 60^2 is the same as multiplying 60, 2 times.

60^2=60*60=3,600

KE=\frac{1}{2}*50*3,600

Multiply 50 and 3,600

KE=\frac{1}{2}*180,000

Multiply 1/2 and 3,600, or divide 3,600 by 2.

KE=90,000

Add appropriate units. Kinetic energy uses Joules, or J.

KE=90,000 Joules

The kinetic energy of the object is 90,000 Joules

A 7.7 kg sphere makes a perfectly inelastic collision with a second sphere initially at rest. The composite system moves with a
klemol [59]

Answer:

15.4 kg.

Explanation:

From the law of conservation of momentum,

Total momentum before collision = Total momentum after collision

mu+m'u' = V(m+m').................... Equation 1

Where m = mass of the first sphere, m' = mass of the second sphere, u = initial velocity of the first sphere, u' = initial velocity of the second sphere, V = common velocity of both sphere.

Given: m = 7.7 kg, u' = 0 m/s (at rest)

Let: u = x m/s, and V = 1/3x m/s

Substitute into equation 1

7.7(x)+m'(0) = 1/3x(7.7+m')

7.7x = 1/3x(7.7+m')

7.7 = 1/3(7.7+m')

23.1 = 7.7+m'

m' = 23.1-7.7

m' = 15.4 kg.

Hence the mass of the second sphere = 15.4 kg
