As per the question, the distance travelled by bobsled [s] = 100 m

The time taken by the bobsled to travel that distance [t] = 25 s

We are asked to calculate the speed of the bobsled.

The speed of the bobsled is calculated as -

$speed\ =\ \frac{distance}{time}$

$v\ =\ \frac{s}{t}$

$=\frac{100\ m}{25\ s}$

$=\ 4\ m/s$

Hence, the correct answer to the question is A. 4 m/s.

At the race track, one race car starts its engine with a resulting intensity level of 104.0 dB at point P. Then 6 more cars star

dem82 [27]

To solve the problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to sound intensity. The most common approach to sound intensity measurement is to use the decibel scale:

$\beta (dB) = 10log_{10}(\frac{I}{I_0})$

Where,

$I_0 = 1*10^{-12}$ is a reference intensity. It is the lowest or threshold intensity of sound a person with normal hearing can perceive at a frequency of 1000 Hz.

I = Sound intensity

Our values are given by,

$\beta = 104dB$

$\#Autos = 7$

For each auto the intensity would be,

$104 = 10log\frac{I}{1*10^{-12}}$

$10.4= log_{10} (\frac{I}{10^{-12}})$

$10^{10.4}*10^{-12}=I$

$I = 0.02511W/m^2$

Therefore the sound intesity for the 7 autos is

$I= 7* 0.02511$

$I = 0.1748W/m^2$

The sound level for the 7 cars in dB is

$\beta (dB) = 10log_{10}(\frac{0.1748}{1*10^{-12}})$

$\beta (dB) = 112.42dB$

Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

T = 0.225 s

Explanation:

The speed of a projectile at the highest point of its motion is the horizontal speed of the projectile. Considering the horizontal motion with negligible air resistance, we can use the following formula:

$v_x = RT\\\\T = \frac{v_x}{R}$

where,

T = Total time of ball in air = ?

R = Horizontal distance covered = 40 m

$v_x$ = horizontal speed = 9 m/s

Therefore,

$T = \frac{9\ m/s}{40\ m}$

1.)A tank travels at a rate of 10.0 km/hr for 12.00 minutes, then at 15.0 km/hr for 8.00

rosijanka [135]

12.00 min = 0.2 hr

8.00 min = 0.15 hr

Total distance:

(10.0 km/hr) (0.2 hr) + (15.0 km/hr) (0.15 hr) + (20.0 km/hr) (0.2 hr)

= 8.25 km

Average speed:

(10.0 km/hr + 15.0 km/hr + 20.0 km/hr) / 3

= 15 km/hr

Change in position:

(10.0 km/hr) (0.2 hr) + (15.0 km/hr) (0.15 hr) - (20.0 km/hr) (0.2 hr)

= 0.25 km

Average velocity:

(10.0 km/hr + 15.0 km/hr - 20.0 km/hr) / 3

≈ 1.67 m/s
