a.Calculate the average speed (in km/h) of Charlie, who runs to the store 4 kilometers away in 30 minutes. b.Calculate the dista
sveta [45]

as per the question charlie runs to the store which is  4 km away

hence the total distance covered [S] is 4 km

he takes 30 minutes to reach the store.

hence the total time taken [t] = 30 minutes=0.5 hour

We have to calculate the average speed.

the average speed[v]= =\frac{S}{t}

                                   =\frac{4 km}{0.5 hour}

                                    =8 km/hour

then we have to calculate the total distance traveled by charlie in 1 hour.

the distance covered S= V_{avg} *t

                                      =8 km/hour ×1 hour

                                      =8 km

Hence the average speed of charlie is 8 km/hour and he covers a distance of 8 km in 1 hour.

Army is standing still on the ground; Bill is riding his bicycle at 5 m/s eastward: and Carlos is driving his car at 15 m/s west
Aleks04 [339]

Explanation:

Given that,

Bill is riding his bicycle at 5 m/s eastward: and Carlos is driving his car at 15 m/s westward.

Taking eastward as positive direction, we have:

v_B=+5\ m/sis the velocity of Bill with respect to Amy (which is stationary)

v_c=15\ m/s is the velocity of Carlos with respect to Amy.

Bill is moving 5 m/s eastward compared to Amy at rest, so the velocity of Bill's reference frame is

v_B=+5\ m/s

Therefore, Carlos velocity in Bill's reference frame will be

v_c'=-15\ m/s-(+5\ m/s)\\\\=-20\ m/s

So, the magnitude is 20 m/s and the direction is westward (negative sign).
