Answer: 24.7 km/h

Explanation:

1) Average speed definition and formula

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

S = distance / time

2) Distance 1 = 67 km

3) Distance 2 = 81 km

4) Total distance traveled = 67 km + 81 km = 148 km

5) time 1 = 1 hour

6) time 2 = 5 hours

7) total time = time 1 + time 2 = 1 h + 5 h = 6 h

8) Average speed:

S = 148 km / 6 h = 24.7 km/h

Find the magnitude of the electric field due to a charged ring of radius "a" and total charge "Q", at a point on the ring axis a

Answer:

E= $\frac{KQ}{2\sqrt 2a^2}$

Explanation:

We are given that

Charge on ring= Q

Radius of ring=a

We have to find the magnitude of electric filed on the axis at distance a from the ring's center.

We know that the electric field at distance x from the center of ring of radius R is given by

$E=\frac{kQx}{(R^2+x^2)^{\frac{3}{2}}}$

Substitute x=a and R=a

Then, we get

$E=\frac{KQa}{(a^2+a^2)^{\frac{3}{2}}}$

$E=\frac{KQa}{(2a^2)^{\frac{3}{2}}}$

$E=\frac{KQa}{2\sqrt 2a^3}$

$E=\frac{KQ}{2\sqrt 2a^2}$

Where K= $9\times 10^9 Nm^2/C^2$

Hence, the magnitude of the electric filed due to charged ring on the axis of ring at distance a from the ring's center= $\frac{KQ}{2\sqrt 2a^2}$

Answer:

$a = \dfrac{4\pi^2R}{T^2}$

Explanation:

The acceleration of a circular motion is given by

$a = \omega^2 R$

where $\omega$ is the angular velocity and $R$ is the radius.

Angular velocity is related to the period, T, by

$\omega=\dfrac{2\pi}{T}$

Substitute into the previous formula.

$a = (\dfrac{2\pi}{T})^2 R$

$a = \dfrac{4\pi^2R}{T^2}$

This acceleration does not depend on the linear or angular displacement. Hence, the amount of rotation does not change it.
