On May 26, 1934, a streamlined, stainless steel diesel train called the Zephyr set the world’s nonstop long-distance speed recor

d for trains. Its run from Denver to Chicago took 13 hours, 4 minutes, 58 seconds, and was witnessed by more than a million people along the route. The total distance traveled was 1633.8 km. What was its average speed in km/h and m/s?

Answer:

124.88 km/h

34.69 m/s

Explanation:

1633.8 km = 1633800 m

13 hours 4 minutes 58 seconds = 13 + 4/60 + 58/3600 = 13.083 hours

13 hours 4 minutes 58 seconds = 13*3600 + 4*60 + 58 = 47098 seconds

So the average speed in km/h is

1633.8 / 13.083 = 124.88 km/h

The average speed in m/s is

1633800 / 47098 = 34.69 m/s

A 72.9-kg base runner begins his slide into second base when moving at a speed of 4.02 m/s. The coefficient of friction between
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

-589.05 J

Explanation:

Using work-kinetic energy theorem, the work done by friction = kinetic energy change of the base runner

So, W = ΔK

W = 1/2m(v₁² - v₀²) where m = mass of base runner = 72.9 kg, v₀ = initial speed of base runner = 4.02 m/s and v₁ = final speed of base runner = 0 m/s(since he stops as he reaches home base)

So, substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

W = 1/2m(v₁² - v₀²)

W = 1/2 × 72.9 kg((0 m/s)² - (4.02 m/s)²)

W = 1/2 × 72.9 kg(0 m²/s² - 16.1604 m²/s²)

W = 1/2 × 72.9 kg(-16.1604 m²/s²)

W = 1/2 × (-1178.09316 kgm²/s²)

W = -589.04658 kgm²/s²

W = -589.047 J

W ≅ -589.05 J
