<h3>Answer:</h3>

30.4 km/hr

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>We are given</u>;

Speed in the first 2 hours as 25 km/hr
Speed in the next 3 hours as 34 km/hr

We are required to determine the average velocity in km/hr

To get the average velocity we divide total distance by total time.
Thus, we need to determine the total distance

Distance = Speed × time

Distance covered in the first 2 hours;

= 25 km/hr × 2 hours

= 50 km

Distance in the next 3 hours

= 34 km/hr × 3 hours

= 102 km

Therefore, total distance = 50 km + 102 km

= 152 km

Total time = 2 hrs + 3 hrs

= 5 hours

Therefore;

Average speed = 152 km ÷ 5 hours

= 30.4 km/hr

Thus, the average speed is 30.4 km/hr

Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

The answer is The acceleration is double its original value.

Explanation:

<h2><u>It is because of the second trial of accelaration. Because of this, an object's acceleration doubles from its original value.</u></h2><h2><u></u></h2>

A mass m is attached to an ideal massless spring. When this system is set in motion with amplitude a, it has a period t. What is

Luden [163]

The period will be the same if the amplitude of the motion is increased to 2a

What is an Amplitude?

Amplitude refers to the maximum extent of a vibration or oscillation, measured from the position of equilibrium.

Here,

mass m is attached to the spring.

mass attached = m

time period = t

We know that,

The time period for the spring is calculated with the equation:

$T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }$

Where k is the spring constant

Now if the amplitude is doubled, it means that the distance from the equilibrium position to the displacement is doubled.

From the equation, we can say,

Time period of the spring is independent of the amplitude.

Hence,

Increasing the amplitude does not affect the period of the mass and spring system.
