Question

Let A be the last two digits, and let B be the last three digits, and the C be the sum of the last 4 digits of your 8-digit student ID. (Example: For 20245347, A = 47, B = 347, and C = 19) A train moves at an average speed of (23.0 + A) m/s for (250.0 + B) seconds and then at an average speed of (45.0 + C) m/s for (800.0 + B) seconds. Determine the average speed for the entire time in meters per second (m/s). Round your final answer to 3 significant figures.

Answer 1

Answer:

66.053m/s

Explanation:

A = 47

B = 347

C = 19

Train moves at

(23 + A)m/s

= 23 + 47 = 60m/s

At (250.0+B) seconds

250.0+347 =

547 seconds

Distance d,

= 70 x 597

= 41790

It also moves at

(45.0 + c)

= 45 + 19

= 64m/s

Time = 800 + B

= 800 + 347

= 1147

Distance,

= 64 x 1147

= 73408m

Total distance,

= 73408 + 41790

= 115,198

Total time,

= 597 + 1147

= 1744

Average speed,

= Total distance / total time

= 115198/1174

= 66.053m/s
