A car moves uphill at 40 km/h and then back downhill at 60 km/h. What is the average speed for the round trip?
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

S_a_v_e_r_a_g_e=48km/h

Explanation:

Ok, the average speed can be calculate with the next equation:

S_a_v_e_r_a_g_e=\frac{Total\hspace{3}distance}{Total\hspace{3}time}   (1)

Basically the car cover the same distance "d" two times, but at different speeds, so:

Total\hspace{3}distance=2*d

and the total time would be the time t1 required to go from A to B plus the time t2 required to go back from B to A:

Total\hspace{3}time=t1+t2

From basic physics we know:

t=\frac{d}{S1}

so:

t1=\frac{d}{S1}

t2=\frac{d}{S2}

Using the previous information in equation (1)

S_a_v_e_r_a_g_e=\frac{2*d}{\frac{d}{S1} +\frac{d}{S2} }=\frac{2*d}{\frac{d*S2+d*S1}{S1+S2} }

Factoring:

S_a_v_e_r_a_g_e=\frac{2*S1*S2}{S1+S2}   (2)

Finally, replacing the data in (2)

S_a_v_e_r_a_g_e=\frac{2*40*60}{60+40} =48km/h

A 500 kg table with 4 legs rests on solid flat ground. I place 3 books on the center of the table with masses of 10 kg, 20 kg an
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

1,373.4 N

Explanation:

The mass of the table acts at the centre in addition to the books since that is the centre of gravity of the table.

Mass of books will be 10kg+20kg+30kg=60 kg

Total mass of table and books will be 500kg+60kg=560 kg

This mass is evenly distributed into the four legs hence 560kg/4 legs=140 kg per leg

Force is product of mass and acceleration due to gravity hence F=gm

Taking g as 9.81 m/s2 then

F=140*9.81=1,373.4 N

Therefore, rhe normal force is equivalent to 1,373.4 N

A planetâs moon revolves around the planet with a period of 39 Earth days in an approximately circular orbit of radius of 4.8Ã10
Alchen [17]

Answer:

v = 895 m/s

Explanation:

Time period is given as 39 Earth Days

T = 39 days \times 24 hr \times 3600 s

T = 3369600 s

now the radius of the orbit is given as

r = 4.8 \times 10^8 m

so the total path length is given as

L = 2 \pi r

L = 2\pi (4.8 \times 10^8)

L = 3.015 \times 10^9

now the speed will be given as

v = \frac{L}{T}

v = \frac{3.015 \times 10^9}{3369600}

v = 895 m/s

Suppose the glass paperweight has index of refraction n=1.38. a) find the value of θ for which the reflection on the vertical su
zimovet [89]

Answer:

a)θ=71.89°

b)NO

Explanation:

Given that

For glass n= 1.38

We know that for air n'=1

The angle  for total internal reflection θc given as

sin θc=n'/n

By putting the values

sin θc=n'/n

sin θc=1/1.38

θc=46.43°

n'sinθ = n sinθref

sinθref = cosθc

n'sinθ =  n cosθc

1 x sinθ =1.38 x cos 46.43°

θ=71.89°

b)

NO
