Velocity = distance / time

v = (15*1000)m / (2*60*60)s

v=2.08 m / s

ave vel = total distance/total time in a specified direction

15km/2hr due east=7.5k/h d east

Your car's speedometer works in much the same way as its odometer, except that it converts the angular speed of the wheels to a

brilliants [131]

Answer:

Speed will be 30810 rpm

Explanation:

We have given diameter of the tire d = 24 inch

So radius $r=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{24}{2}=12imch$

We have given linear velocity v = 35 mph

We know that linear velocity is given by $v=\omega r$

$35=\omega \times 12$

$\omega =\frac{35}{12}\times \frac{63360}{60}=3080rad/min$

As we know that 1 mile = 63360 inch and 1 hour = 60 min

A ball is dropped from rest at the top of a 6.10 m

natita [175]

Answer:

n = 5 approx

Explanation:

If v be the velocity before the contact with the ground and v₁ be the velocity of bouncing back

$\frac{v_1}{v}$ = e ( coefficient of restitution ) = $\frac{1}{\sqrt{10} }$

and

$\frac{v_1}{v} = \sqrt{\frac{h_1}{6.1} }$

h₁ is height up-to which the ball bounces back after first bounce.

From the two equations we can write that

$e = \sqrt{\frac{h_1}{6.1} }$

$e = \sqrt{\frac{h_2}{h_1} }$

So on

$e^n = \sqrt{\frac{h_1}{6.1} }\times \sqrt{\frac{h_2}{h_1} }\times... \sqrt{\frac{h_n}{h_{n-1} }$

$(\frac{1}{\sqrt{10} })^n=\frac{2.38}{6.1}$ = .00396

Taking log on both sides

- n / 2 = log .00396

n / 2 = 2.4

n = 5 approx

Which one of the following statements does not accurately describe vibrations?

Paladinen [302]

A. Forced vibrations, such as those between a tuning fork and a large cabinet surface, result in a much lower sound than was produced by the original vibrating body.
