Answer : 63 km/h

Explanation :

Outgoing distance = 300 km.

Outgoing speed = 93 km/h.

Break time = 1 h

Return distance = 300 km

Return speed = 56 km/h

Outgoing time  = outgoing distance / outgoing speed

Outgoing time   = 300 km / 93 km/h = 3.225806451612 h

Return time  = return distance / return speed

Return time = 300 km / 56 km/h = 5.357142867142 h

Total distance =. Outgoing distance + return distance travelled

Total distance  = 300 km + 300 km = 600 km

Total time = outgoing time + break time + return time

Total time = 3.225806451612 h + 1 h+ 5. 357142867142 h = 9.582949308754 h

Average speed = total distance / total time

Average speed = 600 km / 9.582949308754 h

Average speed = 62.61120462042 km/h = 63 km/h

Explain how the basic unit are combined to give the derived units of force, velocity, pressure and work
LuckyWell [14K]

Velocity:

Velocity is change in displacement with respect to time:

\frac{\Delta x}{\Delta t}

Analysing the units, meters (displacement) and seconds (time) are basic units:

\frac{m}{s}

Therefore the unit of velocity is m/s

Force:

Newton's second law of motion:

F = ma

Kilogram (mass) is a basic unit, and accelerations unit can be found using the equation:

a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}

Analysing the units:

\frac{\frac{m}{s}}{s}=\frac{m}{s^2}

Therefore, the unit of force is:

kg\frac{m}{s^2}

Pressure:

Pressure is given by the equation:

P=\frac{F}{S} where S is area of effect, F is force

Area for a basic rectangle (geometric shape is arbitrary for dimensional analysis) is found by multiplying two lengths:

[l^2]=m^2, the unit of area

Dividing the aforementioned unit of force by the unit of area:

\frac{kg\frac{m}{s^2}}{m^2}=\frac{kg}{ms^2}, the unit of pressure

Work:

Work is given by the equation:

W=\vec{F}\cdot \vec{x}, (dot product may be assumed as normal multiplication for the purposes of unit analysis)

Knowing displacement's (x) unit is m:

[W]=\frac{kgm}{s^2}m=\frac{kgm^2}{s^2}, the unit of work.

Which term describes the difference in electrical charge across a membrane? View Available Hint(s) Which term describes the diff
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

Membrane potential

Explanation:

Membrane potential is describes the difference in electrical charge across a membrane.                                                                                                              

The difference in potential between exterior  and  interior of the  biological cell is known as Membrane potential.Generally it is denoted by  millivolts like mV and varies from -80 V to -40 V.

So the answer is Membrane potential

An astronaut on a space walk floats a little too far away from the space station. Without air to push against, he cannot paddle
Artyom0805 [142]
He can throw the hammer in the direction opposite to the direction he wants to travel in. The hammer will exert an equal and opposite force on him, as per Newton's third law, and this will help him move towards the space station.

Mary travelled 70 miles/hour due north. This is an example of what?
kolezko [41]
I believe this would be an example of Mary's velocity. We have her speed and direction which is all you need to find velocity.
