<h2>Average speed of round trip is 48 mph</h2>

Explanation:

Let the distance from A to B be s.

A car travels from A to B at a speed of 40 mph then returns, using the same road, from B to A at a speed of 60 mph.

\texttt{Time taken to travel from A to B = }\frac{s}{40}\\\\\texttt{Time taken to travel from B to A = }\frac{s}{60}\\\\\texttt{Total time = }\frac{s}{40}+\frac{s}{60}\\\\\texttt{Total time = }\frac{60s+40s}{40\times 60}\\\\\texttt{Total time = }\frac{100s}{2400}\\\\\texttt{Total time = }\frac{s}{24}

Total distance traveled = 2s

Total distance traveled = Average speed x Total time

2s=\texttt{Average speed}\times \frac{s}{24}\\\\\texttt{Average speed = }48mph

Average speed of round trip is 48 mph

1. A jet lands on an aircraft carrier at a speed of 140 mi/h [ 1.00 mile = 1.61 km]
Iteru [2.4K]
Answer:

Acceleration, a = -31.29 m/s²

Explanation:

It is given that, Initial speed of the aircraft, u = 140 mi/h =

62.58 m/s

Finally, it stops, v = 0

Time taken, t = 2 s

Let a is the acceleration of the aircraft. We know that the rate of change of velocity is called acceleration of the object. It is given by :

a = t

0-62.58 2 a =

a = -31.29 m/s²

So, the acceleration of the aircraft is 31.29 m/s²

and the car is decelerating. Hence, this is the required solution.

Consult Multiple-Concept Example 9 to explore a model for solving this problem. A person pushes on a 63-kg refrigerator with a h
miskamm [114]

Answer:

 a ) 270 N

b )413.65 N

Explanation:

weight of the refrigerator = reaction force ( R )

= mg

= 63 x 9.8

R = 617.4 N

Maximum friction possible

= coefficient of friction x R

= .67 X 617.4

= 413.65 N

When force 270 N is applied , due to friction,  the body does not move .

The friction force adjusts itself to the external applied force to prevent the body to budge.

Hence the friction force acting in this situation = 270 N

b ) The maximum friction possible is 413.65 . If we apply a force equal to or exceeding 413.65 N , body will move. Hence 413.65 N is the answer.
