Answer:

Velocity=6.03m/s

Explanation:

Given data

Time t=2.5 minutes=150 seconds

Distance A=1600 ft=487.68 m........east

Distance B=2500 ft=762m ........north

To find

Average velocity

Solution

First we need to find the resultant distance magnitude.To find that we apply Pythagorean theorem to find hypotenuse

So

A^{2}+B^{2}=C^{2}\\  C=\sqrt{A^{2}+B^{2}}\\ C=\sqrt{(487.68m)^{2}+(762m)^{2}}\\ C=904.7m

Velocity=\frac{Distance}{Time}\\Velocity=\frac{904.7m}{150s}\\Velocity=6.03m/s

Why is it advised to tie any luggage kept on the roof of a bus with a rope?​
hram777 [196]

Answer:

While the bus is moving, luggage tends to remain in inertia of motion state. When the bus stops, the luggage tends to resist the change and due to inertia of motion it moves forward and may fall off. That's why it is advised to tie any luggage kept on the roof of a bus with a rope.

Which of these IS an example of balanced forces? A. a book on a shelf B. air rushing out of a balloon C. rolling over and fallin
babunello [35]

Forces are balanced when net force on the object is zero or the sum of all force on the object is zero.

For book kept on a shelf, the weight of the book in down direction is balanced by the normal force on the book by the shelf. hence the book kept on a shelf is an example of balanced force.

In case of air rushing out of balloon , the balloon experience a net force by the air coming out of it.

rolling over and falling off the bed , the object falls under gravity force.

a car speeding up accelerates. since it accelerates , it has net force on it.

A 50 g mass is freely hanging from a horizontal meter stick at a distance of 99 cm from the pivot. Calculate the weight force W
Neko [114]

Answer:

W = 0.49 N

τ = 0.4851 Nm

Force

Explanation:

The weight force can be found as:

W = mg

W = (0.05 kg)(9.8 m/s²)

<u>W = 0.49 N</u>

The torque about the pivot can be found as:

τ = W*d

where,

τ = torque

d = distance between weight and pivot = 99 cm = 0.99 m

Therefore,

τ = (0.49 N)(0.99 m)

<u>τ = 0.4851 Nm</u>

The pivot exerts a  <u>FORCE </u>on the meter stick because the pivot applies force normally over the stick and has a zero distance from stick.
