1 hour is 3600 seconds. In 2 hours, it would be 7200 seconds. Divide the amount of miles by seconds. 100/7200=.01388..

We don't know anything about the direction Jack was traveling, so we can't determine his velocity. The best we can do is work with his speed.

Speed = (distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)

Speed = (100 miles) / (2 hours)

Speed = 50 miles/hour

The question has specified a different unit, so we'll need to convert the unit of our answer.

Let's multiply the answer by (1 hour / 3600 seconds). The numerator and denominator of this fraction are both the same quantity, so the value of the fraction is ' 1 ', and multiplying the answer by it won't change the answer in any way except the unit.

Speed = (50 mi / hr) x (1 hr / 3600 sec)

Speed = (50mi · 1hr) / (hr · 3600sec)

Speed = 50 mi / 3600 sec

Speed = 0.01389 mi/sec

Answer:

2 Newtons

Explanation:

$F = ma$

Therefore, your mass would be 1kg and your acceleration would be 2m/s/s

Plug the numbers into the equation:

$(1kg)(2m/s/s)$

which will equal

$2 Newtons$

How do you convert seconds to minutes, seconds to hours , minutes to seconds and hours to seconds

Bess [88]

Answer:

You could memorize conversions, or use conversion charts, or do a quick internet search for help.

Explanation:

I'll do a few of the conversions for you

Seconds to minutes:

there are 60 seconds in one minute. So if you are wondering how many seconds are in 3 and 1/2 minutes, you would do this conversion:

60 sec/min times x sec/3.5 min

which can be written as 60 x 3.5 = 210. so "x" seconds would be 210 seconds in 3 1/2 minutes.

you could do the same thing in the opposite direction for minutes to seconds:

1 min has 60 seconds. So in 7.25 minutes, how many seconds are there?

1 min/60 sec times 7.25 min/x sec

which can be written as 7.25 x 60 = 435. so "x" seconds would be 435 seconds in 7.25 minutes.

hours to seconds:

this one is slightly more complicated

In one hour there are 60 minutes, and in one minute there are 60 seconds.

so to convert from hours to seconds you would do this conversion:

1 hr/60 min times 1 min/60 sec. then the "min" would cancel out, and you would be left with the label "hr/sec". to do the math, it would be 1 hr / 60 x 60.

60x60 = 3600. so you would have 1 hr/3600 sec. So in one hour there are 3600 seconds.

so if you want to know how many seconds are in 6.75 hours:

6.75 hr/x sec times 3600 sec/1 hr

6.75 x 3600 = 24,300 so there are 24,300 seconds in 6.75 hours.

I hope this helps :)

At 15°C air is transmitted at 340 m/s. Express this speed in Kilometers per hour.

EleoNora [17]

Answer:

1224km/hr

Explanation:

To convert from m/s to km/hr

1000m = 1km

Divide both sides by 1000

1m = 1/1000 km................. (1)

60×60 seconds = 1 hr

3600s = 1hr

Divide both sides by 3600

1s = 1/3600 .............(2)

Divide (2) by (1)

1m/s = 1/1000 ÷ 1/3600 km/hr

1m/s = 1/1000 × 3600/1 km/hr

1m/s = 3600/1000 km/hr

1m/s = 3.6 km/hr .............(3)

To convert 340m/s to km/hr

Multiply (3) by 340

1× 340m/s = 3.6 × 340 km/hr

340m/s = 1224km/hr

What is the de Broglie wavelength of an object with a mass of 2.50 kg moving at a speed of 2.70 m/s? (Useful constant: h = 6.63×

xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

9.82 × $10^{-35}$ Hz

Explanation:

De Broglie equation is used to determine the wavelength of a particle (e.g electron) in motion. It is given as:

λ = $\frac{h}{mv}$

where: λ is the required wavelength of the moving electron, h is the Planck's constant, m is the mass of the particle, v is its speed.

Given that: h = 6.63 × $10^{-34}$ Js, m = 2.50 kg, v = 2.70 m/s, the wavelength, λ, can be determined as follows;

λ = $\frac{h}{mv}$

= $\frac{6.63*10^{-34} }{2.5*2.7}$

= $\frac{6.63 * 10^{-34} }{6.75}$

= 9.8222 × $10^{-35}$

The wavelength of the object is 9.82 × $10^{-35}$ Hz.

the gas in a balloon has P=100000 pa and v=0.0279 m^3. if the pressure increases to 120000 pa at constant temperature, what is t

mash [69]

Answer:

New volume of the baloon is 0.02325m^3

Explanation:

To answer this question we need to know the ideal gas law, which says:

p•V = n•R•T

p is pressure, V is volume, n is amount of substance (in moles), R is constant value and T is temperature.

Since it's stated that n and T are constant, and we know that R is a constant too, that means that p•V = constant value. Basically, that means that p1•V1 (pressure and volume before the pressure increase) equals to p2•V2 (pressure and volume after the pressure increase).

That means that:

100000 Pa • 0.0279 m^3 = 120000 Pa • V2. Next, V2= 100000•0.0279/120000. So, V2=0.02325m^3.
