Answer:

Average velocity = 30 miles per hour

Explanation:

Given that

Velocity for uphill = 20 miles per hour

Velocity for downhill = 60 miles per hour

We know that

Distance = Velocity x time

Total distance = Average velocity x total time

Lets take distance from home to school is s

Time taken from home to school= s/20 hr

Time taken from school to home= s/60 hr

Total time =s/20+s/60

Total distance = Average velocity x total time

s + s =  Average velocity x (s/20+s/60)

So average velocity = 30 miles per hour

3 a A motorcyclist starts from rest and reaches
andrew-mc [135]

The acceleration of the body is 2 m/s^2 while the deceleration is - 1.2 m/s^2.

<h3>What is the acceleration?</h3>

Let us recall that the acceleration is the change in the speed of a body with time. We have been told that the body accelerates for 3s and then decelerates to 2s. This implies that the total time that the object spent in motion is 5 s.

Thus;

v = u + at

v = final velocity

u = initial velocity

a = acceleration

t = time taken

v - u/t = a

a = 6 - 0/3

= 2 m/s^2

Again;

v - u/t = a

a = 0 - 6/5

a = - 1.2m/s^2

Which of the following best models the changes in energy of a blackbody radiator?
Pani-rosa [81]
We have that a blackbody radiator either constantly absorbs energy or constantly emits energy, depending on its surroundings. In this case, the energy is continuously and smoothly decreasing, thus it cannot be like B and C.
The energy loss or gain is also monotonous, it has the same direction; a radiator cannot gain energy at some point and then lose some. Hence, it does not resemble a wave either. The most appropriate model is the ramp. Energy is constantly emitted to surroundings and it decreases monotonically.

Colt1911 [192]

Answer: I scored a 9/10

Explanation:

I agree with Kathy gravity must be acting the same on both balls just because one ball is heavier doesn’t mean they will hit different times if the wooden ball was drop closer to the ground then the wooden ball would hit the ground first
