Answer:

70 kmph

Explanation:

Speed = $\frac{Distance}{Duration}$

Distance is the total length of the path irrespective of the direction.

S = 30 km + 40 km

S = 70 km

Duration is the time taken to move from the initial point to the final point

t = 25 min + 35 min

t = 60 min

t = 1 hour

Speed = $\frac{Distance}{Duration}$

$v = \frac{S}{t} \\\\v = \frac{70}{1} \\\\v = 70 km/hour\\\\v = 70 kmph$

Average speed = (distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)

   = (30km + 40 km) / (25min + 35min)

   =    (70 km) / (60 min)

   = 70 km/hour

A particle's position is given by z(t) = −(6.50 m/s2)t2k for t ≥ 0. (Express your answer in vector form.) a. Find the particle's

blondinia [14]

Answer:

a) $z'(t) =v(t) = -13t$

Now we can replace the velocity for t=1.75 s

$v(1.75s) = -13*1.75 =-22.75 \frac{m}{s}$

For t = 3.0 s we have:

$v(3.0s) = -13*3.0 =-39 \frac{m}{s}$

b) $v_{avg}= \frac{z_f - z_i}{t_f -t_i}$

And we can find the positions for the two times required like this:

$z_f = z(3.0s) = -(6.5 \frac{m}{s^2}) (3.0s)^2=-58.5m$

$z_i = z(1.75s) = -(6.5 \frac{m}{s^2}) (1.75s)^2=-19.906m$

And now we can replace and we got:

$V_{avg}= \frac{-58.5 -(-19.906) m}{3-1.75 s}= -30.875 \frac{m}{s}$

Explanation:

The particle position is given by:

$z(t) = -(6.5 \frac{m}{s^2}) t^2, t\geq 0$

Part a

In order to find the velocity we need to take the first derivate for the position function like this:

$z'(t) =v(t) = -13t$

Now we can replace the velocity for t=1.75 s

$v(1.75s) = -13*1.75 =-22.75 \frac{m}{s}$

For t = 3.0 s we have:

$v(3.0s) = -13*3.0 =-39 \frac{m}{s}$

Part b

For this case we can find the average velocity with the following formula:

$v_{avg}= \frac{z_f - z_i}{t_f -t_i}$

And we can find the positions for the two times required like this:

$z_f = z(3.0s) = -(6.5 \frac{m}{s^2}) (3.0s)^2=-58.5m$

$z_i = z(1.75s) = -(6.5 \frac{m}{s^2}) (1.75s)^2=-19.906m$

And now we can replace and we got:

$V_{avg}= \frac{-58.5 -(-19.906) m}{3-1.75 s}= -30.875 \frac{m}{s}$

If a nucleus was as big as a nonpareil, an atom would be ____

Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

small marble

Explanation:

A nonpareil are confectionery tiny ball items that are made up of starch and sugar. It is very small of the size of sugar crystal or sand grains. They were the miniature version of the comfits. They are generally opaque white but bow available in all colors.

In the context, if the nucleus is compared to the size of a nonpareil then its atom would be of the size of small size marble. An atom is bigger in size than that of nucleus as the nucleus is located inside the atoms.
