A distance of d is covered with 53 mile/hr initially. Time taken to cover this distance t1 = d/53 hour Next distance of d is covered with x mile hours. Time taken to cover this distance t2 = d/x hours. We have average speed = 26.5 mile / hour          

                                         = Total distance traveled/ total time taken                  

                                         = \frac{2d}{\frac{d}{53}+\frac{d}{x}} = \frac{2}{\frac{1}{53}+\frac{1}{x} }  = \frac{106x}{x+53}

                              26.5 = \frac{106x}{x+53} \\ \\ 79.5 x = 1404.5\\ \\ x = 17.67 miles/hour

A force acting over a large area will exert less pressure per square inch than the same force acting over a smaller area.
babunello [35]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Pressure is defined as:

p=\frac{F}{A}

where

F is the magnitude of the force perpendicular to the surface

A is the surface

Therefore, pressure is inversely proportional to the area of the surface:

p\propto \frac{1}{A}

this means that, assuming that the forces in the two situations (which have same magnitude) are both applied perpendicular to the surface, the force exerted over the smaller area will exert a greater pressure. Hence, the statement"

<em>"A force acting over a large area will exert less pressure per square inch than the same force acting over a smaller area"</em>

is true.

What is the moment of inertia of the object starting from rest if it has a final velocity of 5.9 m/s? Express the moment of iner
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

The moment of inertia is I = 0.126*R^2*M

Explanation:

We can calculate the moment of inertia of an object that starts from rest and has a final velocity using the energy conservation equation, as follows:

Ek1 + Ep1 = Ek2 + Ep2, where

Ek1 = kinetic energy of the object before to roll down

Ep1 = potential energy of the object

Ek2 = kinetic energy when the object comes down

Ep2 = potential energy of the object at the bottom

We have the follow:

Ek1 = 0

Ep1 = M*g*h

Ek2 = ((I*w)/2) + ((M*v^2)/2)

Ep2 = 0

Replacing values:

0 + M*g*h = ((I*w)/2) + ((M*v^2)/2) + 0

where:

M = mass of the object

g = gravitational acceleration

I = moment of the inertia

w = angular velocity = v/R

h = height

M*g*h = ((1/2) * I * (v^2/R^2)) + ((M*v^2)/2)

M*9.8*2 = (I*(5.9^2)/(2*R^2)) + ((5.9^2 * M)/2)

19.6 * M = ((17.4*I)/R^2) + 17.4*M

Clearing I, we have:

I = 0.126*R^2*M
