A train is moving in a straight railway where it covered one third of the distance with

Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

<em>The average speed of the train is 45 km/h</em>

Explanation:

<u>Speed</u>

It's defined as the distance (d) per unit of time (t) traveled by an object. The formula is:

$\displaystyle v=\frac{d}{t}$

Let's call x the total distance covered by the train. It covered d1=1/3x with a speed of v1=25 km/h. The time taken is calculated solving for t:

$\displaystyle t_1=\frac{d_1}{v_1}$

$\displaystyle t_1=\frac{1/3x}{25}$

$\displaystyle t_1=\frac{x}{75}$

Now the rest of the distance:

d2 = x - 1/3x = 2/3x

Was covered at v2=75 km/h. Thus the time taken is:

$\displaystyle t_2=\frac{d_2}{v_2}$

$\displaystyle t_2=\frac{2/3x}{75}$

$\displaystyle t_2=\frac{2x}{225}$

The total time is:

$\displaystyle t_t=\frac{x}{75}+\frac{2x}{225}$

$\displaystyle t_t=\frac{3x}{225}+\frac{2x}{225}$

$\displaystyle t_t=\frac{5x}{225}$

Simplifying:

$\displaystyle t_t=\frac{x}{45}$

The average speed is the total distance divided by the total time:

$\displaystyle \bar v=\frac{x}{\frac{x}{45}}$

Simplifying:

$\boxed{\displaystyle \bar v=45\ km/h}$

The average speed of the train is 45 km/h

What happens to electric charges within a conductor when a charged object is brought close to it

Agata [3.3K]

Well, if a charger conductor is touched to another object or close enough to touching the object then the conductor can transfer its charge to that object. Conductors allow for electrons to be transported from particle to particle, so a charged object will always distribute its charge until the repulsive forces are minimized.

The three stages of a train route took 1 hour ,2 hours ,and 4 hours . The first two stages were 80km and 200km of the train aver

luda_lava [24]

Answer:

the third stage was 480 km long

Explanation:

Stage 1:

Time = 1 hours

Speed = 80km

Stage 2:

Time = 2 hours

Speed = 200km

Stage 3:

Time = 4 hours

Let the Distance at the stage 3 be x

Average speed of the train route = 100 km/h

So

$\frac{ \text{speed at stage 1} + \text{speed at stage 2} + \text{speed at stage 3}}{3} = 0$

$\frac{ \text{speed at stage 1} + \text{speed at stage 2} + \text{speed at stage 3}}{3} = 100$

Lets find the speed at stage 1

Speed = $\frac{Distance }{Time}$

Speed = $\frac{80}{1}$

Speed 1= 80 km/hr

The speed at stage 2

Speed = $\frac{Distance }{Time}$

Speed = $\frac{200}{2}$

Speed 2 = 100 km/hr

The speed at stage 3

Speed = $\frac{Distance }{Time}$

Speed = $\frac{x}{4}$

Speed 3 = $\frac{x}{4}$

we kow that average is ,

$\frac{ \text{speed 1} + \text{speed 2} + \text{speed 3}}{3} = 100$

$\frac{ 80 + 100+ \frac{x}{4} }{3} = 100$

$\frac{ 180 + \frac{x}{4} }{3} = 100$

$\frac{ \frac{720 +x}{4} }{3} = 100$

$\frac{720 +x}{4} \times \frac{1}{3} = 100$

$\frac{720 +x}{12} = 100$

$720 +x = 100 \times 12$

$720 +x = 1200$

$x = 1200- 720$

x = 480

A rain cloud contains 5.32 × 107 kg of water vapor. The acceleration of gravity is 9.81 m/s 2 . How long would it take for a 2.0

Alja [10]

Answer:

20.85 years

Explanation:

2.61 km = 2610 m

2.07 kW = 2070 W

First we need to calculate the potential energy required to take m = $5.32 * 10^7$ kg of rain cloud to an altitude of 2610 m is

$E = mgh = 5.32 * 10^7 * 9.81 * 2610 = 1.4*10^{12}J$

With a P = 2070 W power pump, this can be done within a time frame of

$t = E/P = \frac{1.4*10^{12}}{2070} = 658037739 s$

or 658037739/(60*60) = 182788 hours or 182788 / 24 = 7616 days or 7616 / 365.25 = 20.85 years
