<u>Answer:</u>

<em>The average speed of the car is 66.9 km/h</em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Here distance covered with the speed <em>57 km/h=7 km  </em>

distance covered with the speed of <em>81 km/h=7 km</em>

<em>Average speed is equal to the ratio of total distance to the total time. </em>

<em>total distance= 7 + 7= 14 km  </em>

<em>time= \frac{distance}{speed} </em>

<em>time taken to cover the first 7 km= 7/57 h  </em>

<em>time taken to cover the second part of the journey = 7/81 h </em>

<em>average speed =  14/(7/57+7/81)=(14 \times 57 \times 81)/945=66.9 km/h</em>

<u><em>Shortcut: </em></u>

<em>When equal distances are covered with different speeds average speed=2 ab/(a+b) where a and b are the variable speeds in the phases. </em>

How many joules of heat must be transferred to a 410-g aluminum pizza pan to raise its temperature from 32oC to 232oC? The speci
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

recall that heat absorbed released is given by

Q = mc*(T2 - T1)

where

m = mass (in g)

c = specific heat capacity (in J/g-k)

T = temperature (in C or K)

*note: Q is (+) when heat is absorbed and (-) when heat is released.

substituting,

Q = (480)*(0.97)*(234 - 22)

Q = 98707 J = 98.7 kJ

You serve a volleyball with a mass of 2.1 kg. The ball leaves your hand with a speed of 30 m/s. The ball has—— energy. Calculate
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

945 j

Explanation:

You have just given the ball kinetic energy, which is given by the following equation:

KE= 1⁄2 m v2 = 1⁄2 (2.1 kg)(30 m/s)2 = 945 Joules

A 23.3-kg mass is attached to one end of a horizontal spring, with the other end of the spring fixed to a wall. The mass is pull
sdas [7]

In spring mass system we know that angular frequency is given as

\omega = 2\pi f

f = 8.38 Hz

\omega = 2\pi(8.38)

\omega = 52.65  rad/s

now we know that speed of SHM at its extreme position is given by

v = A\omega

here we know that

A = 17.5 cm

v = 0.175 (52.65)

v = 9.21 m/s

so maximum speed is 9.21 m/s

tangare [24]
The angular acceleration of the blade when it's switched off is (-6800 rev/min) divided by (2.8 sec) = -2,428.6 rev/(min-sec) = -40.5 rev/sec^2 .
