Contrast speed and velocity

Physics
1 answer:
Zielflug [23.3K]4 years ago
6 0

Answer:

"Speed" is the rate at which distance is being covered .... the ratio

of distance covered to the time it takes.

"Velocity" is the rate at which distance is being covered .... the ratio

of distance covered to the time it takes ... AND the direction in which

it is covered.  'Speed' with the direction of the motion.

To heat the house, the boiler transfers 15 MJ of energy in 10 minutes.
Harrizon [31]

The formula is P = E/t, where P means power in watts, E means energy j , and t means time in seconds. This formula states that power is the consumption of energy per unit of time.

P = 15 M / 10*60

M = mega = 10⁶

15 *10⁶ / 600

= 25000 watt

A man is flying in a hot-air balloon in a straight line at a constant rate of 5 feet per second, while keeping it at a constant
icang [17]

Answer:

x = 220.85 ft

Explanation:

Let at any moment of time the friend's car is at some horizontal distance "x" from the position of balloon.

Now if the altitude of the balloon is fixed and it is at height "h"

so here we will have

tan \theta = \frac{h}{x}

now we know that

initially the angle of the friend's car is 35 degree

so the horizontal distance will be

x_1 = h cot35

similarly if the angle after passing the car position is 36 degree

then we have

x_2 = h cot36

now the speed of the balloon is constant

so we have

v = \frac{x_1 + x_2}{\Delta t}

5 ft/s = \frac{h cot35 + h cot36}{90 s}

5 ft/s = \frac{2.8h}{90}

h = 160.45 ft

so the final position of friend when the angle is 36 degree

x = \frac{h}{tan36}

x = \frac{160.45}{tan36}

x = 220.85 ft

What force is required to move 7 M if the work done is 9 J
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

1.29 N

Explanation:

The equation for force (with work and distance) is:

Force=\frac{Work}{distance}

We can plug in the given values into the equation:

Force=\frac{9J}{7m}$\approx1.29 N
