The total distance is 70km.
The total time is 60 minutes or 1 hour.
Speed=Distance÷Time
=70÷1
=70km/h

Average speed = (total-distance)/(total-time). That's 70 km/hr.

Aloiza [94]

Answer:

The net force acting on the object is doubled while the mass of the object is held constant. What will be the new acceleration? An object has an acceleration of 12.0 m/s^2. The net force acting on the object is halved (decreased to one half its original value) while the mass of the object is held constant.

A general contractor drives 5 miles to the hardware store in 10 minutes. He shops for needed tools for 30 minutes, then drives t

Alex17521 [72]

Given parameters:

Distance to hardware shop = 5 miles

Time to reach hardware shop = 10 minutes

Time spent at the shop = 30 minutes

Average speed to customer home = 45 mph

Time taken for the travel = 20 minutes

Unknown:

Average speed of the contractor = ?

Solution:

Average speed is the total distance covered divided by the total time taken.

Average speed = $\frac{total distance}{total time taken}$

total distance = distance to hardware shop + distance to customer's home

We do not know the distance to customer's home but we have been given the speed and time, so we can find the distance.

Distance = speed x time

Convert the time to hrs and solve;

60 minutes = 1 hr

20 minutes = $\frac{20}{60} hr$ = $\frac{1}{3} hr$

So, Distance = 45mph x $\frac{1}{3} hr$ = 15miles

Now;

Total distance = 5 + 15 = 20miles

Total time = time to reach hardware shop + time to reach customer's house

= 10 + 20

= 30 minutes

Convert the time from minutes to hrs;

60 minutes = 1hr

30 minutes = $\frac{30}{60}$ = 0.5hr

So;

Average speed = $\frac{20}{0.5}$ = 40mph

The average speed is 40mph

10. Convert the following:<br> a. 37.4 mL into ML<br> b. 689 km/hr into m/s<br> c. 34.5 m² into mm²

Snezhnost [94]

A. When we convert 37.4 mL to ML, the result obtained is 3.74×10¯⁸ ML

B. When we convert 689 km/hr to m/s, the result obtained is 191.39 m/s

C. When we convert 34.5 m² to mm², the result obtained is 3.45×10⁷ mm²

<h3>A. How to convert millimeters (mL) to megaliter (ML)</h3>

Volume (mL) = 37.4 mL
Volume (ML) =?

1 mL = 1×10¯⁹ ML

Therefore,

37.4 mL = 37.4 × 1×10¯⁹

37.4 mL = 3.74×10¯⁸ ML

Thus, 37.4 mLis equivalent to 3.74×10¯⁸ ML

<h3>B. How to convert 689 km/hr to m/s</h3>

Conversion scale

3.6 Km/hr = 1 m/s

Therefore,

689 km/hr = 689 / 3.6

689 km/hr = 191.39 m/s

Thus, 689 km/hr is equivalent to 191.39 m/s

<h3>C. How to convert 34.5 m² to mm²</h3>

Conversion scale

1 m² = 1×10⁶ mm²

Therefore,

34.5 m² = 34.5 × 1×10⁶

34.5 m² = 3.45×10⁷ mm²

Thus, 34.5 m² is equivalent to 3.45×10⁷ mm²
