Calculate the speed of a car that travels a distance of 2.4km in 2 minutes ​

Physics
1 answer:
hammer [34]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

72 kilometres per hour

Explanation:

The formula for calculating speed is distance/time.

So to work this out you would convert 2 minutes into hours. You would divide 2 by 60 to convert it into hours. This is because the standard unit for speed with kilometres is kilometres per hour. Then  you would divide 2.4 by that.

1)Divide 2 by 60:

2/60=0.0333333

2) Divide 2.4 by 0.0333333.

2.4/0.0333333=72.00007

3) Round it.

72km/h

Two boxes on opposite ends of a massless board that is 3.0 m long. The board is supported in the middle by a fulcrum. The box on
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

b. 1.1 m

Explanation:

It is given that the total distance between the masses is equal to the length of the board, which is 3 m. Therefore,

s_{1} + s_{2} = 3\ m\\\\s_{2} = 3\ m - s_{1}\ --------- eqn(1)

where,

s₁ = distance of fulcrum from left mass

s₂ = distance of fulcrum from right mass

In order to achieve balance, the torque due to both masses must be equal:

T_{1} = T_{2}\\m_{1}s_{1} = m_{2}s_{2}\\(25\ kg)(s_{1}) = (15\ kg)(s_{2})\\\\\frac{15\ kg}{25\ kg}(s_{2}) = s_{1}\\\\using\ eqn(1):\\(0.6)(3\ m - s_{1}) = s_{1}\\1.8\ m = 1.6\ s_{1}\\s_{1} = \frac{1.8\ m}{1.6}

s₁ = 1.1 m

Hence, the correct option is:

<u>b. 1.1 m</u>

A 6.00-μf parallel-plate capacitor has charges of 40.0 μc on its plates. how much potential energy is stored in this capacitor?
dedylja [7]

Thew energy stored in a capacitor of capacitance C and voltage between the plates V is

E=\frac{1}{2} CV^2=\frac{1}{2C} Q^2.

Substituting numerical value

E=\frac{1}{2*6*10^{-6}} (40*10^{-6})^2\\ E=133.33\; \mu J

What were four of Galileo’s discoveries that were important to astronomy?
Scorpion4ik [409]

Explanation:

1. Phases of Venus: Galileo was the first astronomer to use a telescope to observe the celestial objects. Through a telescope he observed that Venus shows the phases just like the Moon. This proved the Heliocentric theory correct against the then prevalent Geocentric theory.

2. Law of Falling bodies: The acceleration due to gravity is independent of weight of the objects that means two bodies of different mass will hit the ground at the same time if dropped from the same height.

3. The uneven surface of the Moon: He observed that the surface of the Moon is uneven and rough.

4. Discovery of the 4 Moons of Jupiter

A 6.0 m section of wire carries a current of 5.2 A from east to west in the earth's magnetic field of 1.0 × 105 T at a location
NNADVOKAT [17]
Well, since you only want direction, ignore the numbers. Use the right hand rule.
Current (pointer finger) points west (left). 
Magnetic field (middle finger) points south (towards you). 
Force (thumb) then points up (away from the earth)
