You are driving home from school steadily at 95.0 km/h for 130 km. It then begins to rain and you slow to 65.0 km/h. You arrive

home after driving 3.33 hours. (a) How far is your hometown from school? (b) What was your average speed?

Very simple,Its all about calculating distance using the formula:
D = V x T
where,
V is the speed or velocity
D is distance
T is the time
In the given problem,there are two parts.
Lets do the calculations for both parts separately:
Part 1) Before the rain
Time = 130/95
         = 1.37 hours <span> </span>
<span>Time taken after the rain = Total time - time taken before the rain  </span>
<span>                                        = 3.34 hours - 1.37 hours
                                        = 1.97 hours </span>
<span>Distance covered after the rain = 1.97 hours x 65 km/h
                                                  = 128 km</span>
Hence,
<span>a) The total distance covered =  130 + 128
                                           = 258 km
</span><span>b) Average speed = Total distance/Total time
                             =  260/3.34
                             = 78 km/h </span>

What is the scientific method
Alex_Xolod [135]
The scientific method is an empirical tool that can be used to study phenomenon by asking questions, conducting experiments, and making observations to prove or disprove hypotheses. The scientific method has been used as a baseline tool in hard and social sciences to conduct experiments and to make conclusions about phenomenon in our natural world.

Which of these should you always do at the end of a calculation
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

Reverse check the answer

Explanation:

I believe it is very important that once someone is done with any calculation, the person ought to go over the calculations again. And even, recheck the answer in inverted form.

This is so because while doing the calculations, we can possibly make errors that we won't notice until after submission. Knowing 2 * 3 = 6, but writing 2 * 3 = 5 in the course of calculations can happen to anybody. So therefore, cross checking and reverse checking is needed

14. A block rests on a frictionless table on Earth. After a 20-N horizontal force is applied to the block, it accelerates at 3.9
joja [24]
<span>14. Let's find mass. We know that F = m*a, so m = F/a.m = 20/3,9 m/s^2 = 5,12 kg;We already know the mass, so acceleration will be a = F/m;a = 10/5,12 = 2,0 m/s^2 (approximately);Answer: E.
15. According to the picture given above, let's define all components:These are refer to y: 985N sin(31)= 507;788N cos(32)= 668;411N sin(53)=-328;
And these are refer to x: 985N cos(31)= 844 788N sin(32)= -417 411N cos(53)= -247
And finally let's calculate tan:  tan^-1 (507/844)= 30,98; tan^-1 (668/-417)= -58,02; tan^-1 (-328/-247)= 53,01
According to these calculations we've got: Sum Fx = 179,4 and Sum Fy = 847. Then let's count magnitude:Fsum = rad 179^2 + 847^2 = 865
Then we've got [tex]cos^-1 (179/865) = 77.7 (approximately).
So the most approximate answer is C. 866 N at 78.1° counterclockwise to the x-axis.
16. I think that this question is incomplete because there wasn't mentioned in what end of the chain the tension should be calculated. Anyway I'll help you with both bottom and top ends. We will use the basic formula W=m*g; W(bottom) = 175*9.8 = 1715 N; W(top) = (175+12)*9.8 = 1833 N; So you should choose between B. 1830 N or D. 1720 N. But I think the most possible answer is B.
17. I am definitely sure that A diagram generates the most tension in one chain. So the answer is C. The box is held by 1 chain and have all its weight.
18. I think that each planet would move in a straight line at constant speed, because there will be a zero gravity condition and there won't any impact on the planets.
19.  According to the Work-Energy Theorem we have:1/2*1200*2^2 = 2400 (J);Then let's count the average force according to the formula: Work =  F*D where D is displacement.F = 2400/ 0.15 = 16000 (N)
So the answer is B. 1.6 × 10^4 N
20. If my memory serves me well, magnetism is the force that can act through empty space. It's one aspect of the combined electromagnetic force. So the answer is A.
21. According to the illustration given above, I think we should use formula F = m*g; Let's count m. m = 5 kg - 0,6 kg = 4,4 kg; Then we have everything to count force:F = 4,4 * 9,8 = 43,1 N. So the most approximate answer is D. 43 N.
22. I am definitely sure that the answer is C. on Earth at sea level. Because weight has the formula W=mg. And on the earth surface the magnitude of g is higher that everywhere so the greatest weight is on Earth at sea level.
23. We have everything to calculate the acceleration. According to Newton's second law, the formula is a = F/m;a = 20/40 = 0,5 m/s^2; So the answer is A.
24. According to the definition of action reaction forces, the answer should be: A. The forces are opposite in direction, with the force on the ball much stronger in magnitude.
25. I am pretty sure that we should use Newton’s second law of motion F = m*a. First we should find mass, using formula W=m*g => m = W/g => m = 2400/9.8= 245 kg. Then we can find F.F = m*a;F = 245*12 = 2940 N; Answer: B
