A train travels 120 km in 2 hours and 30 minutes. What is its average speed

Physics

marissa [1.9K]2 years ago

Answer:

48 kmph

Explanation:

The question is asking you the kmph and that means the amount of kilometers travelled divided by the amount of hours. And if you want to think of it in a formula, SPEED = DISTANCE ÷ TIME

In this case, the amount of hours is 2.5 and the speed is 120km so 120/2.5 is 48

so the answer is 48 kmph

2 hr 30 min is equal to 2.5 hours

Speed is distance/time

S=120/2.5

S=48 km/h

Given a 10-V power supply, would a 20-ohm resistor and a 5-ohm resistor need to be arranged in parallel or in series to generate
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

The resistors will be in parallel to produce a net resistance of 4ohm and current in 20 ohm resistor will be 0.5A and 5ohm resistor will be 2A.

Explanation:

We are given 10 voltage power source and we have two Resistors with resistance of 20 ohm and 5ohm.

We need to find the orientation in which these two resistors would be arranged so that the circuit could get a current of 2.5Ampere.

Using ohm's law we have

V = I*R

V= voltage

I= current

R= resistance

10 = 2.5*R

R = 10/2.5 = 4ohm

that means we need a total of 4ohm resistance from these two resistors.

since the net Resistance(4ohm) is lower than the smallest resistance(5ohm) available that means the orientation of the resistors will be in parallel.

\frac{1}{R} = \frac{1}{R1} +\frac{1}{R2}\\                 = \frac{1}{20} +\frac{1}{5}\\ \\                 = \frac{1+4}{20} =\frac{1}{4}

R(net) =4ohm

Now the orientation of the resistors are in parallel so the current will be divided.

we know that the current will divide in opposite manner the arm which provides more resistance less current will flow from there and vice versa.

We know that the voltage in parallel remains same

In 20 ohm resistance

again using ohms law

V = i1*R1

10 = i1*20

i1 = 0.5A

in 5ohm resistor

V=i2*R2

10 = I2*5

i2 =2A

and i1+i2 = 0.5+2= 2.5A which means our calculation is correct.

Therefore the resistors will be in parallel to produce a net resistance of 4ohm and current in 20 ohm resistor will be 0.5A and 5ohm resistor will be 2A.

Movement of a molecule against its concentration gradient can occur through Select one or more: a. facilitated diffusion b. pass
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

The answer to your question is:

Explanation:

There are two kinds of cell transport passive transportation and active transportation.

Passive transportation does not need energy because molecules move from higher concentration to lower concentration.

Active transportation needs energy because molecules moves against concentration.  

a. facilitated diffusion It's an example of passive transportation so this answer is wrong.

b. passive transport Molecules move in favor of concentration so this answer is wrong.

c. osmosis is another example of passive transport so this answer is wrong.

d. simple diffusion it's another example of passive transport, so it's wrong this answer.

e. active transport this is the right answer.

Which is produced in a synthesis reaction?
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

Single Compound

Explanation:

A synthesis reaction takes two or more reactants and reacts chemically to turn them all into one substance.  

An example of a synthesis reaction is the reaction that takes place between sodium (Na) and chlorine (Cl) to create table salt.
