<h2>82.353 km/hr</h2>

Explanation:

       The driver travels 135 km towards East in 1.5 hr. He stops for 45 min. He again travels 215 km towards East in 2.0 hr.

       The total displacement of the driver in the given time is ths sum of individual displacements, because all the displacements are in the same directon.

       Total displacement = 135\text{ }km\text{ }East\text{ }+\text{ }0\text{ }km\text{ }+\text{ }215\text{ }km\text{ }East\text{ }=\text{ }350\text{ }km\text{ }East

       Total time travelled = 1.5\text{ }hr\text{ }+\text{ }45\text{ }min\text{ }+\text{ }2.0\text{ }hr\text{ }=\text{ }90\text{ }min\text{ }+\text{ }45\text{ }min\text{ }+\text{ }120\text{ }min\text{ }=\text{ }255\text{ }min\text{ }=\text{ }4\text{ }hr\text{ }15\text{ }min\text{ }=\text{ }4.25\text{ }hr

      \text{Average velocity = }\dfrac{\text{Total displacement}}{\text{Total time taken}}=\dfrac{350\text{ }km}{4.25\text{ }hr}=82.353\text{ }\frac{km}{hr}

∴ Driver's average velocity = 82.353\text{ }\frac{km}{hr}

A graph shows how the temperature of a substance changes as energy is added steadily over time.
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

A flat, horizontal line  

Explanation:

A flat, horizontal line indicates a phase change.

The temperature does not increase because the added heat goes into converting one phase into another.

A is wrong. A downward-sloping line indicates that the temperature is decreasing with time.

C is wrong. An upward-sloping line indicates that the temperature is increasing with time.

When an object oscillating in simple harmonic motion is at its maximum displacement from the equilibrium position, which of the
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

E. Zero Maximum

Explanation:

At the point of maximum displacement, the speed is zero while the restoring force is maximum. In fact:

- The restoring force is given by F=kx, where k is the spring constant and x is the displacement - at the point of maximum displacement, x is maximum, so F is maximum as well

- the total energy of the system is sum of kinetic energy and elastic potential energy:

E=K+U=\frac{1}{2}mv^2+\frac{1}{2}kx^2

where m is the mass of the system and v is the speed. Since E (the total energy) is constant due to the law of conservation of energy, we have that when K increases, U decreases, and viceversa. As a result, when x increases, v decreases, and viceversa. At the point of maximum displacement, x is maximum, so v will have its minimum value (which is zero, since the system is changing direction of motion).
