This kind of problems are solved by dividing total distance with the total time necessary for him to get from the start to the finish line. In this case, total distance is 10000m and the total time is the sum of the times that were given (which is 26 minutes, or 1560 seconds). Dividing these two numbers, the average speed is:
\frac{1000m}{1560s}  = 6.41 \frac{m}{s}

d=d₁+d₂+d₃

t=t₁+t₂+t₃

v₁=d₁/t₁=2000/300=6.66 m/s

v₂=d₂/t₂=5000/840=5.95 m/s

v₃=d₃/t₃=3000/420=7.14 m/s

t₁=d₁/v₁

t₂=d₂/v₂

t₃=d₃/v₃

vm=d/t=d/(d₁/v₁+d₂/v₂+d₃/v₃)=d/(v₂v₃d₁+v₁v₃d₂+v₁v₂d₃)/v₁v₂v₃=v₁v₂v₃d/(v₂v₃d₁+v₁v₃d₂+v₁v₂d₃)=6.66*5.95*7.14*10000/(5.95*7.14*2000+6.66*7.14*5000+6.66*5.95*3000)=2829367.8/441609=6.406 m/s

A circular cylinder has a diameter of 3.0 cm and a mass of 25 g. It floats in water with its long axis perpendicular to the wate
Vilka [71]

Answer:

   f = 5.3 Hz

Explanation:

To solve this problem, let's find the equation that describes the process, using Newton's second law

        ∑ F = ma

where the acceleration is

         a = \frac{d^2 y}{dt^2 }

        B- W = m \frac{d^2 y}{dt^2 }

To solve this problem we create a change in the reference system, we place the zero at the equilibrium point

           B = W

In this frame of reference, the variable y'  when it is oscillating is positive and negative, therefore Newton's equation remains

         B’= m \frac{d^2 y'}{dt^2 }

           

the thrust is given by the Archimedes relation

         B = ρ_liquid g V_liquid

     

the volume is

        V = π r² y'

     

we substitute

          - ρ_liquid g π r² y’ = m \frac{d^2 y'}{dt^2 }

          \frac{d^2 y'}{dt^2} + \rho_liquid \ g \ \pi  r^2/m ) y' \ =0

this differential equation has a solution of type

         y = A cos (wt + Ф)

where

         w² = ρ_liquid g π r² /m

angular velocity and frequency are related

         w = 2π f

         

we substitute

          4π² f² = ρ_liquid g π r² / m

          f = \frac{1}{2\pi } \ \sqrt{ \frac{ \rho_{liquid} \  \pi  r^2 \ g}{m } }

calculate

         f = \frac{1}{2 \pi }  \sqrt{ \frac{ 1000 \ \pi  \ 0.03^2 \ 9.8 }{0.025}  }

         f = 5.3 Hz

Design a solution that can monitor and minimize the melting of sea ice caused by human activity
dedylja [7]

Answer:

CO2 emissions from fossil fuel burning should be minimized at all cost. The CO2 are gotten when the carbons from hydrocarbons react with air(oxygen). This gas erodes the ozone layer which makes the melting of ice caps faster due to increased amount of heat radiations on the earth. This is the only best and permanent solution to the reduction of the amount of heat rays on the earth which is a global problem.

Objects which reflects back the sunrays could also be inserted into the sea to prevent the melting of the ice caps.

A 90kg mountain climber hangs from a nylon rope and streches it ny 25.0cm. if the rope was originally 30.0m long and it's diamet
bixtya [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

E = σ/ε = (F/A) / (ΔL/L)

E = (mg/(πd²/4) / (ΔL/L)

E = (4mg/(πd²) / (ΔL/L)

E = 4Lmg/(πd²ΔL)

E = 4(30.0)(90)(9.8)/(π(0.01²)0.25)

E = 1.35 x 10⁹ Pa  or 1.35 GPa
