It takes 15 min to drive 6.0 mi in a straight line to the local hospital. It takes 10 min to go the last 3.0 mi, 2.0 min to go t

he last mile, and only 30 s (0.50 min) to go the last 0.50 mi. What is the average speed of the trip? Take the positive xx ‑direction to be from the starting point toward the hospital.

Answer:

36.87 km/h

Explanation:

Convert all the units in SI system

1 mile = 1609.34 m

d1 = 6 mi = 9656.04 m

t1 = 15 min = 15 x 60 = 900 s

d2 = 3 mi = 4828.02 m

t2 = 10 min = 10 x 60 = 600 s

d3 = 1 mi = 1609.34 m

t3 = 2 min = 2 x 60 = 120 s

d4 = 0.5 mi = 804.67 m

t4 = 0.5 min = 0.5 x 60 = 30 s

Total distance, d = d1 + d2 + d3 + d4

d = 9656.04 + 4828.02 +  1609.34 + 804.67 = 16898.07 m = 16.898 km

total time, t = t1 + t2 + t3 + t4

t = 900 + 600 + 120 + 30 = 1650 s = 0.4583 h

The ratio of the total distance covered to the total time taken is called average speed.

Average speed = 16.898 / 0.4583 = 36.87 km/h

A wheel has a radius of r = 2.0 m and it rolls down a smooth incline. The height of the incline is h = 8.0 m . What is the angul
zepelin [54]

The angular velocity of the wheel at the bottom of the incline is 4.429 rad/sec

The angular velocity (ω) of an object is the rate at which the object's angle position is changing in relation to time.

For a wheel attached to an incline angle, the angular velocity can be computed by considering the conservation of energy theorem.

As such the total kinetic energy (K.E) and rotational kinetic energy (R.K.E) at a point is equal to the total potential energy (P.E) at the other point.

i.e.

P.E = K.E + R.K.E

\mathbf{mgh = \dfrac{1}{2}m(r \times \omega)^2 + \dfrac{1}{2}\times I \times \omega^2}

\mathbf{gh = \dfrac{1}{2}(r \times \omega)^2 + \dfrac{1}{2}\times r^2 \times \omega^2}

\mathbf{2 \times \dfrac{gh}{r^2} =\omega^2 +  \omega^2}

\mathbf{2 \omega^2=2 \times \dfrac{9.81 \times 8 m }{2.0 ^2}  }

\mathbf{\omega^2=\dfrac{39.24 }{2}}

\mathbf{\omega=\sqrt{19.62 } \ rad/sec}

\mathbf{\omega=4.429 \ rad/sec}

Therefore, we can conclude that the angular velocity of the wheel at the bottom of the incline is 4.429 rad/sec

Pitch marks are the invitations left by the ball when they fall on the green
Kipish [7]
You can mark, lift and clean a ball on the green, but it's a violation to do so when another ball is in motion, as your ball might influence the outcome of that stroke. You can also mark and clean your ball in some instances when it's off the green: cleaning it, for example, just to the point where you can identify it.
