Answer:

433 mph

Explanation:

We know that

Velocity =\frac{Distance}{Time }...Eq(1)

Here,

Distance =1,592 miles

Time=3.68 hours

Putting the value of distance and Time in the Eq(1)  We get

Velocity =\frac{1592\ miles}{3.68\ hours}

Velocity = 432.608\  mph\\Velocity = 433 mph

therefore Average velocity is 433 mph

What is the period of a wave that has a frequency of 300 hz?
Butoxors [25]

Answer:

T = 0.003 s

(Period is written as T)

Explanation:

Period = time it takes for one wave to pass (measured in seconds)

frequency = number of cycles that occur in 1 second

(measured in Hz / hertz / 1 second)

Period : T

frequency : f

So, if we know that the frequency of a wave is 300 Hz, we can find the period of the wave from the relation between frequency and period

T =  \frac{1}{f}    f = \frac{1}{T}

to find the period (T) of this wave, we need to plug in the frequency (f) of 300

T = \frac{1}{300}

T = 0.00333333333

So, the period of a wave that has a frequency of 300 Hz is 0.003 s

[the period/T of this wave is 0.003 s]

A ball rolls horizontally off a table of height 0.6 m with a speed of 9 m/s. How long does it take the ball to reach the ground?
denis23 [38]

Answer: 0.067 s

Explanation:s = Ut + 1/2at^2

0.6 = 9t + 0.5 *10 *t^2

Where a = g =10m/s/s

Solving the quadratic equation

5t^2 + 9t - 0.6=0,

t= 0.067 s and - 1.7 s

Of which 0.067 s is a valid time

How do you find velocity when given 3 numbers
forsale [732]
In general, that's not possible, unless the three numbers relate to
very specific quantities. 

For example, if the three numbers are the object's height, temperature,
and cost, then they are of no help at finding the object's velocity.

Sammy squirrel is steering his boat at a heading of 327 degree at 18mph. The current is flowing at 4mph at a heading of 60 degre
Tanya [424]

Answer:

  • 59.97 º at 18.23 mph

Explanation:

To find Sammy's course you have to add the two velocities (vectors), 18 mph 327º and 4 mph 60º.

To add the two vectors analytically you decompose each vector into their vertical and horizontal components.

<u>1. 18 mph 327º</u>

  • Horizontal component: 18 mph × cos (327º) = 15.10 mph

  • Vertical component: 18 mph × sin (327º) = - 9.80 mph

  • Vector notation:

       15.10\hat i-9.80\hat j

<u>2. 4 mph 60º</u>

  • Horizontal component: 4 mph × cos (60º) = 2.00 mph

  • Vertical component: 4 mph × sin (60º) = 3.46 mph

  • Vector notation:

       2.00\hat i+3.46\hat j

<u>3. Addition:</u>

You add the corresponding components:

15.10\hat i-9.80\hat j+2.00\hat i+3.46\hat j\\ \\ 17.10\hat i-6.34\hat j

To find the magnitude use Pythagorean theorem:

  • \sqrt{17.1^2+6.34^2}= 18.23

<u>4. Direction:</u>

Use the tangent ratio:

  • tan(\alpha )=opposite/adjacent=3.46/2.00=1.73

Find the inverse:

  • arctan (1.73) ≈ 59.97º
