A bicyclist makes a trip that consists of three parts, each in the same direction (due north) along a straight road. during the

first part, she rides for 22 minutes at an average speed of 7.2 m/s. during the second part, she rides for 36 minutes at an average speed of 5.1 m/s. finally, during the third part, she rides for 8.0 minutes at an average speed of 13 m/s.
a. how far has the bicyclist traveled during the entire trip?
b. what is her average velocity for the entire trip?

part a)

path of the cyclist consist of three parts

during the first part, she rides for 22 minutes at an average speed of 7.2 m/s. during the second part, she rides for 36 minutes at an average speed of 5.1 m/s. finally, during the third part, she rides for 8.0 minutes at an average speed of 13 m/s.

total distance in first part

d_1 = 22*60 * 7.2 = 9504 m

total distance in second part

d_2 = 36*60 * 5.1 = 11016 m

total distance in third part

d_3 = 8 * 60 * 13 = 6240 m

so total distance would be

d = 9504 + 11016 + 6240 = 26760 m

part b)

average velocity is given as

v = \frac{displacement}{time}

v = \frac{26760}{(22 + 36 + 8)*60}

v = 6.76 m/s

so average velocity is 6.76 m/s

A power transmission line is hung from metal towers with glass insulators having a resistance of 1.00×109 Ω . What current flows
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

The current flows through the insulator is 2 mA.

Explanation:

Given that,

Resistance R=1.00\times10^{9}\ \Omega

Voltage = 200 kV

We need to calculate the current

Using ohm's law

V=IR

I=\dfrac{V}{R}

Where, I = current

V = voltage

R = resistance

Put the value into the formula

I=\dfrac{200\times10^{3}}{1.00\times10^{9}}

I=0.0002\ A

I=2\ mA

Hence, The current flows through the insulator is 2 mA.

Find the mass of an object if a 40 N of force causes the object to accelerate at 5.5 m/s/s
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 8 kg</h3>

Explanation:

The mass of the object can be found by using the formula

m =  \frac{f}{a}  \\

f is the force

a is the acceleration

From the question we have

m =  \frac{40}{5}  \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>8 kg</h3>

They create a heat engine where the hot reservoir is filled with water and steam at equilibrium, and the cold reservoir is fille
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

The efficiency of Carnot's heat engine is 26.8 %.

Explanation:

Temperature of hot reservoir, TH = 100 degree C = 373 K

temperature of cold reservoir, Tc = 0 degree C = 273 K

The efficiency of Carnot's heat engine is

\eta = 1-\frac{Tc}{T_H}\\\\\eta = 1 -\frac{273}{373}\\\\\eta =  0.268 =26.8 %

The efficiency of Carnot's heat engine is 26.8 %.
