The product of speed and time is distance. To calculate the total distance you multiple the speed in kilometers per second by the time at that speed in seconds, do this for all 3 different speeds then add them up, the 17.4 minutes eating does not affect the answer at all. to convert from minutes to seconds multiply time in minutes by 60, to convert from km/h to km/s divide km/h by 3600.

(23.5x60)x(74.5/3600) = 29.2km (rounded to 1 decimal place)
+
(15.9x60)x(111/3600) = 29.4km (rounded to 1 decimal place)
+
(49.2x60)x(38.7/3600) = 31.7km
=90.3km

The brackets are not necessary but i think it makes it more clear what is happening in your working.

A bullet with a mass of 0.02 kg is fired horizontally into a block of wood hanging on a string. The bullet sricks in the wood an
djyliett [7]

Answer:

u= 20.09 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

m = 0.02 kg

M= 2 kg

h= 0.2 m

Lets take initial speed of bullet = u m/s

The final speed of the system will be zero.

From energy conservation

1/2 m u²+ 0 = 0+ (m+M) g h

m u²=2 (m+M) g h

By putting the values

0.02 x u² = 2 (0.02+2) x 10 x 0.2       ( take g=10 m/s²)

u= 20.09 m/s

In a science fiction story, a microscopic black hole is given an enormous positive charge by firing an un-neutralized ion drive
Olegator [25]

Answer: distance d = 4.73e10m

Explanation: Suppose the charge on the black hole is 5740 C which is a positive charge.

Using electric potential V formula:

V = kq / d

Where K = 9.05×10^9Nm^2/C

And e = 1.6×10^-19C

But you don't need to substitute it.

1090 V = 8.99e9N·m²/C² * 5740C /d

Make d the subject of formula

d = 4.73e10 m

What is the acceleration of a Ford Mustang GT that can go from 0.00 to 27.8<br> m/s in 5.15 seconds?
bixtya [17]
Finding acceleration= final speed-initial speed/time taken (or A=V-U\T)

Finial speed= 27.8s
Initial speed= 0s
Time taken= 5.15

So..

27.8-0/5.15= 5.40m/s (rounded to two decimal places)

An open organ pipe of length 0.47328 m and another pipe closed at one end of length 0.702821 m are sounded together. What beat f
sineoko [7]

Answer:

fb = 240.35 Hz

Explanation:

In order to calculate the beat frequency generated by the first modes of each, organ and tube, you use the following formulas for the fundamental frequencies.

Open tube:

f=\frac{v_s}{2L}         (1)

vs: speed of sound = 343m/s

L: length of the open tube = 0.47328m

You replace in the equation (1):

f=\frac{343m/s}{2(0.47228m)}=362.36Hz      

Closed tube:

f'=\frac{v_s}{4L'}

L': length of the closed tube = 0.702821m

f'=\frac{343m/s}{4(0.702821m)}=122.00Hz

Next, you use the following formula for the beat frequency:

f_b=|f-f'|=|362.36Hz-122.00Hz|=240.35Hz

The beat frequency generated by the first overtone pf the closed pipe and the fundamental of the open pipe is 240.35Hz
