Two things that aren't involved in speed: -- the straight-line distance between the start- and end- points. -- the direction from start-point to end-point.

The correct answer to the question is: Direction

EXPLANATION:

The average velocity of a body is defined as the rate of change of displacement.

We know that displacement is a vector quantity. Hence, it has magnitude as well as direction for its specification.

On the other hand, the average speed of a body is defined as the rate of change of distance travelled. Hence, the average speed of a body is a scalar quantity. It means that it has only magnitude.

Hence, during the calculation of average velocity,we have to think of its direction.

d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

The value to be reported is 5.48V

Explanation:

The RMS (root mean square) is defined as the value of voltage that will produce the same heating effect, or power dissipation, in circuit, as this AC voltage.

The RMS voltage is also called effective voltage because it is just as effective as DC voltage in providing power to an element.

It is expressed as V_{rms} = \frac{V_{m} }{\sqrt{2} }

where Vm is the maximum or peak value of the voltage

In calculating the RMS of the voltage , we simply divide the peak voltage by square root of 2 (√2)

V_{rms} = \frac{7.75}{\sqrt{2} }

= \frac{7.75}{1.414}

= 5.48 V

The increase of kinetic energy at the square of the speed of your vehicle has a major influence on all motor vehicles in three p
Viktor [21]

This implies that stopping distance and impact force grow as a function of speed. The best ways to improve manoeuvrability and lessen crash severity are to drive at an appropriate pace and to slow down as soon as you spot dangers in front of you.

Keep in mind that stopping distance increases with speed; at 50 mph, it is four times longer than at 25 mph, and at 75 mph, the force of impact is nine times greater.

<h3>What is the impact of speed on kinetic energy ?</h3>

When your car expends or absorbs energy to speed up or slow down, you may feel a pull or a jolt, called impulse. Impulse increases as the energy or force increases, and increases as the duration of the force decreases. You'll feel a harder jolt if you speed up or slow down suddenly.

  • Consider: coming to a stop from 60 mph in ten seconds doesn't hurt you or your vehicle because the force of this event is spread out over a long time. But if you hit a wall and come to a stop in just half a second, you'll feel twenty times the impulse, causing severe damage.

39. A dog runs on a waxed floor at an initial speed of 2 m/s. It slides to a stop with an
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Use the one-dimensional equation

v_f=v_0+at where vf is the final velocity of the dog, v0 is the initial velocity of the dog, a is the acceleration of the dog, and t is the time it takesto reach that final velocity. For us:

0 = 2 + -.43t and

-2 = -.43t so

t = 4.7 seconds

The Huka Falls on the Waikato River is one of New Zealand's most visited natural tourist attractions. On average, the river has
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

(a) V = 0.75 m/s

(b) V = 0.125 m/s

Explanation:

The speed of the flow of the river can be given by following formula:

V = Q/A

V = Q/w d

where,

V = Speed of Flow of River

Q = Volume Flow Rate of River

w = width of river

d = depth of river

A = Area of Cross-Section of River = w d

(a)

Here,

Q = (300,000 L/s)(0.001 m³/1 L) = 300 m³/s

w = 20 m

d = 20 m

Therefore,

V = (300 m³/s)/(20 m)(20 m)

<u>V = 0.75 m/s</u>

<u></u>

(b)

Here,

Q = (300,000 L/s)(0.001 m³/1 L) = 300 m³/s

w = 60 m

d = 40 m

Therefore,

V = (300 m³/s)/(60 m)(40 m)

<u>V = 0.125 m/s</u>
